5.0

I loveee this book. It grabs your attention right off bat and it has moments where you go “Wow, how did it get to be this way?” and once it gets explained it becomes uncomfortably obvious that we are only a couple steps behind. A dystopian banned book that, once you read it, you understand why bad people are trying to make it disappear. Great characters and a proven show that happily ever after isn’t always the outcome.
