**3.5 STARS**
The only reason I'm giving this rating is because it took awhile for it to pick up, but once it finally did it was amazing!! SO suspenseful. The concept of this book is just terrifying!! I just wish the first 3/4 of the book was as good as the last 1/4.. Anyways, it was an exciting read & I'm nervous to see what happens next in the second book...

This one kind of threw me for a loop. I'm still not certain how the rest of the books are going to play out. I will read the next one.

Interesting idea for this book. Not something I've read before. I'll be reading the sequel.

Not my favorite dystopian. And the twist was just too much for me. I have students who love this, so... just me?

O-M-G!
This book was amazing. Thrilling, exciting, I just had to know what was going on and why. I thought all the answers were coming, but what an ending. I need book two! Good thing it's coming in October! If you loved The Maze Runner, I can garantee you will love this book too!

A nice good action book filled with twists and surprises. However, some of those twists and surprises I found a bit . . . unexpected. Not in a good way, but a bad way: there just seemed to be no setting up of the surprise other than the "mysterious" school thing.

It feels so freaking dystopian to me, even though I know it isn't. This is one of those, "secret hidden in a smart-kid/rich-kid academy" thing. I completely love Benson's character; funny, witty, bold, unafraid...
The ending is just, CAPTIVATING. There is no other way to describe it! The end just basically wipes away any previous thought that you know what is going to happen! I can't wait to read the next book!
