A review by gilberik
Red Rising by Pierce Brown

Did not finish book. Stopped at 20%.
A perfect, beautiful, pure girl-wife, that every boys in the village wanted to marry, beloved by everyone, fridged in the first 10-15% of the book. Trying to hard to make me care about her when even the people hanging her regret having to kill such a beautiful girl. She'll never be Prim. This book took all the things that made The Hunger Games great and heartwreaking, and did the complete opposite with them.

When it brought up another beloved caring wife, and fridged her in the same paragraph? Yeah I don't think I want to get deeper into this book. Not gonna suffer through that thank you, definitely not for me.
