Someone needs to tell this girl that more plot twists does not equal a better story. The concept was cool but was poorly executed. The writing was hard to get through, and Isla is probably the dumbest character I’ve ever read.

Okay okay okay.
I do not get why there’s so much hate towards this book!! I absolutely loved it. The character development?!!! Oh yeah. Also the story, the romance, the characters as a whole — I cannot wait for the next book to come out!!!!!

Hunger Games vibes - both with the organized fighting and the love triangle. The difference is the leaders are the ones who fought, not random citizens. The love triangle was basically the same - one who was a potential previous love who overprotected her in hopes to keep her safe and the other who developed love through pushing her to her limit to make her stronger.

Was just very mediocre and repetitive in its writing.
