I always get dystopians having such high hopes, and usually doesn't hit the right notes for me. The characters were enjoyable in this one, and the world building good. It wasn't a home run, but a good read overall.
Eh.
So this was a disappointment...
The plot of this book seemed really interesting, the whole main idea really caught my attention... But the writing? Those shallow characters? The repetitive phrases and actions? They were a huge turn off.
I mean, a lot of things just didn’t make sense. The MC was supposed to have her brain “wiped” of all her memories, but still she managed to be a professional tech? She remembered binary while she didn’t know what a bird was?
Also, there was barely any background to the characters. I learned absolutely nothing about them.
I just wish this book was better written. The main plot was super promising, but the writing and development of the story failed to deliver.
The world was interesting and the plot was intriguing but I couldn't really connect with the characters. I thought that they lacked three dimensionality.
The book was a bit slow of a start for me and I was worried if I was going to get into it or not, but I did. After you get through some of the world building and the numerous questions you have, that the main character has as well, the book picks up pace. I am interested to learn who and what her purpose is and to figure out the numerous mysteries going on. This dystpoian is sure to catch your eye and if you liked the style of The Maze runner this book is for you.
