final rating: 3/5

middle-school me would’ve slurped this up like chicken noodle soup. but present me thinks this book is very… mid.

it’s obvious that i am above the intended reading audience, but still, i’ve found that this book is very, very similar to other dystopian books i’ve read. forbidden love, mandatory procedure, “i’m not like other girls”…

wait, what? 😭 YEAH. our MC is exactly that. honestly, if she wasn’t so annoying, i would’ve rated it a little higher. the bane of my existence.

but hey! at least the ending was tense 👀 on to pandemonium!
