while the book was very thrilling and I enjoyed it, I feel like a lot of aspects were woven in and then just forgotten about/never explained fully? idk whether that will be picked up on in following books though.
I don't think it needed the lovestory, really, but I guess it can't be avoided

First, a rant about the mc and then I’ll tell y’all how great this book is. I think she was insufferable at times. I’m not sure if this was the authors intention or not, but I found myself hating her point of view a couple times in the story. I am completely all for powerful women, but Audrey seemed to consider herself smarter and morally higher than everyone else in the story. Maybe pride is intentionally her main flaw, but I couldn’t stand it most of the time. She often ignored the adults in her life in the name of feminism to do absolutely stupid things because she believes herself, a 17 year old teen, above death and injury. This does get better as the series moves forward though. I did enjoy the plot and will be reading the next in the series. The characters were worth rooting for for the most part, and I didn’t see most of the main twists coming.

Extra warning- take’s God’s name in vain and looks down on religion. Makes sense in the context of the book but I think people should know what they are getting into if it goes against their religious beliefs.
