I read about 1/3 of the book and I can't continue. Perhaps I'll pick it up again and try to read it another time, when I'm desperate for something to read. The story, in a word, sucks. The only thing I am happy about is the fact that I caught this on discount and only paid $2.99 for it. 7/10, now that I look back at this book I definitely wouldn't consider this a masterpiece anymore considering that I've read better books than this but this was still enjoyable. The worldbuilding is so ridiculous that it made me laugh however it wasn't the biggest aspect of the story but it still bothered me because in the book they banned love because it was a disease however they didn't ban anything else and I thought why ban that and nothing else and I was perplexed by the author's decision. This set up the whole story when the main character Lena Haloway at first obeys the anti-love dystopia and after a few pages later she meets a boy named Alex from the north of the United States called the Wilds but before then it was called Canada and guess what, they fall in love with each other despite the government banning love which built up some suspense which I liked. Towards the second half of the book Lena and Alex continue to develop their attraction to one another yet I simply didn't care for them because they weren't really that well written and felt more like archetypes than actual characters but in the end the government discovers that she has broken the one rule she wasn't supposed to break and there was a big chase between her and the police and she escapes into the Wilds with Alex and it all ends in a cliffhanger. I would like to read the next two books in the series and fortunately my library does have them and overall this was an interesting book but if the author tried a little bit harder on it this would've been an even better book and if you like dystopias read this book. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Lena looks forward to receiving the government-mandated cure that prevents the delirium of love and leads to a safe, predictable, and happy life, until ninety-five days before her eighteenth birthday and her treatment, when she falls in love. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
