2nd read:
Being one of the first books I've re-read in a long time, I was so incredibly pleased with this experience. Although I couldn't read it as fast as I would've liked solely because of my lack of time, being able to read as much as I did per day wasn't only because I could, but it was because the book is so beautifully crafted! It really is so addictive and pulls you in so quickly.

I think my favorite part was how I would visibly be shocked by certain things that happened in the book, even though I've read it already. But along with forgetting little bits, there are moments that I remembered as key to the plot, and was able to catch where shifts were, making me a lot more aware during my read.

I just really loved this book so much. I hope Gemina does it justice.

I’m so incredibly pleased by this book! It definitely starts off a little bit on the slower end in terms of the plot and action, but once it gets going, ITS GOING. It became so fast paced and addicting (hence why I managed to read nearly 400 pages in a day).

Not only was the read intoxicating, but it was so much more meaningful and profound than what I was thinking. To create a dystopia is one thing, but to have a machine with artificial intelligence and one 17/18 year old girl in the center of the main plot is another. Kaufam and Kristoff did an amazing job with creating the in depth dialogue that reflected on so much of the societies problems and really had you thinking.

Seriously, an incredible read. HIGHLY recommend!
