See allwow i really didn't like this. didn't like the writing style, the world, characters, tropes, anything. if i didn't have to finish this for a readathon, i would have dnf'd it. a lot of the horrible things in this world that happened seemed to have happened for shock value, and i was rolling my eyes a lot of the time. talk about angsty. don't get the hype at all.
I'd rate this a 1.5, rounding up to 2. The writing felt far too flowery (pardon the pun), tiresomely so at many points, and it had that melodramatic air that it feels like only the YA-est of YA can only achieve (ok or maybe “New Adult”) with all its angst and emotional manipulation. I did like the very end though.
