3.5 stars. Though, based off that giant cliff hanger of an ending, I will probably have to read book two.
I really enjoyed the book. I found the way Maxfield Academy was set up to be very interesting. I didn't really connect with the characters until the end, but it was still a really enjoyable read as there were many surprises and nothing ever happened has I predicted it to.
I want the second book now. T_T
I've read a lot of dystopians books in my day. This has to be one of the better ones I've come across. We are kept in the dark, like our main character Benson for the entirety of the book and when we think we are getting somewhere we realized that we have gotten nowhere at all. I'm not used to being kept guessing so well. It's great.
