Nope. Sorry. This was an interesting idea, and I've had this on my TBR for quite some time now, but it was a big letdown.
Honestly, it hit so many clichés and tropes that I found myself becoming so detached from the story and just reading it for amusement. (There's a Twitter account called DystopianYA that parodies cliché YA lines and such, and this reminded me exactly of that account.)
While I can appreciate the general IDEA of "The Murder Complex", and while a little part of me enjoyed having a skilled, combat-trained female as a lead character, the rest of this was just incredibly predictable and bland.
In addition, I felt the world building lacked substance, and was often confused about how the systems of the society worked, and how some of these practices came to be in the first place. I STILL don't understand why the Dark Hour was even a thing!!
Lastly, EVERY ONE in this book was SO SO SO familiar and casual about death and dead bodies. People step over them, shovel them into carts, hide in piles of them, and kill without thought. I mean, I understand that death and murder are (obviously) huge themes in this, but the deaths became so frequent and casual that it was disturbing. I felt like 90% of the time, no one felt any remorse about killing.

The murder complex: Review I have not read this type of book in so long but I loved it. It was such an interesting premise with a hell of cliff hanger. I loved the duel perspective that the book was told from and also how different the characters were and also how connected they became. I will admit it was a super complicated novel but since i read it so fast it did not bother me. 
 
I loved both Meadow and Zephyer. Normally in books the girls feel bad about murder and death but it was switched in this book and you can feel the grief coming off of zephyr. It was so sad to watch. Then you have Meadow who is so strong and so willing to murder the it gives a nice contrast between the two. I really loved that.
 
This book was filled of twists and turns. The first few pages I thought the book was going to be about the job and then it turned to something so much more complicated. I loved it. I loved the fast pace nature of the book and all the character.
 
I am so excited for the next book and to get my hands on the novel that is currently out.
 
Here is my video review.
