Is this book mainly plot- or character-driven?
Considering the plot is almost nonexistent, it can’t be anything but character driven. 

This is supposed to be a dystopian romance, but if I’m gonna be honest it’s 95% romance with a sprinkle of dystopian. The world building is barely existent at best. 
I honestly don’t know what the main characters are doing to fight against the Reestablishment really, they’re just mildly annoying stealing supplies, it’s generous to call this group of misfits rebels. 

The romance is bad, the plot doesn’t exist outside of the romance and the characters are so insanely boring. 
It feels like I’m reading a rapidly updated fanfiction, that’s how inconsistent the plot is. 

But alas, I have all 6 of the books so I’m gonna keep reading cause although horrifically bad, it’s mildly entertaining and an easy read ;)
