I don't know if it's just a me thing, but it almost felt like there was a bit of a mismatch between the writing style and the contents of this book. The writing felt more like what you typically find in books for younger teens, while the contents themselves were rather grisly. I loved the world building though. It's a very unique idea and I'm definitely interested in learning more about it, even if everything else was far more simplistic than I expected it to be. I haven't decided if I will continue the series yet, but the world its set in is definitely its strong point.
