This was so fast paced, tense and engrossing. I really found myself routing for Malorie and becoming emotionally attached by the end. I enjoyed the way it was told, with going back and forth between what was currently happening and when everything began. It was a great way to keep the plot moving and to show Malorie's growth over time, as well as introduce us to more characters that were explored.  Just really had a lot of fun with it, I like a good survival story and now I'm excited to see the film. Would even possibly reread in future.
