Secondborn by Amy A. Bartol
3.0

3.5

Ok I really did like this book. I listened to it on audio (free with KU). It is definitely your classic YA dystopian. The premise was a super cool idea, but I almost wish there was no romance in it because it killed it for me.

SpoilerI was sooo over Hawthorn by the end of the book and I wasn't rooting for them at all. That whole bull shit of him "being in love with her since he was 10" and them not having sex was so cliche. Ruined the story for me a little bit.

I might continue with an audio read of it but it isn't high on my priority.
