dark
tense
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Strong character development:
Complicated
Loveable characters:
No
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
I’ll admit, I went into this one full of skepticism. I typically go into books blind but (for whatever reason) I read the synopsis first so I was hesitant to even read it.
This book follows ELEVIN characters through their experience during a reality tv competition. For me, too many MCs tend to cause unnecessary clunky confusion but this was done very well. I experienced this book via audio and the full production made all the difference in my experience with it.
Im still surprised that I enjoyed it as Im not a fan of futuristic storytelling but this one was near future and incredibly feasible. Each family wasn’t what it appeared to be and (as per usual) Marrs tosses in the plot twist that make you question everyone involved.
