Della Rose

I just finished reading Kallista. It is a dystopian novel by Della Rose. A girl desperately hoping to change her status risks everything to achieve it. With the help from a member in the elite class, she pretends to be someone she isn’t in order to marry an elite and become one of them. If discovered, she will be banned from the life she knows and be shipped to a deserted island, where chances of survival are slim.

While this wasn’t one of my favorites, I liked the story. It was very beautifully written and I can’t wait to read the next one. I really did think it was a very sweet story. I even enjoyed the humor that was thrown into the story now and then.

I really feel there were parts of this book that were too rushed. I feel that if this book had been longer the author wouldn’t of felt they had to rush so many parts of the book. This is just my opinion though. For all I know, it could have been rushed on purpose. I also feel that there were a few scenes that should have been drawn out just a little more.

I recommend this book to anybody who loves dystopian and young adult romances. It is very sweetly written. It is also very deep and intellectually written. It’s a very easy read, but it’s very worth it. I’m glad that I was given the chance to read this book.… (meer)
