I am so in love with Caethes Faron's writing. I adored her previous series. Then, I read this book straight through, non-stop, in one day. She went from a historical setting in her previous books to a dystopian, futuristic setting in this one seamlessly. No less believable and as well structured as before.

The way she builds the story, slowly, with great restraint and suspense, always holds me spellbound while reading.

I can't wait to read the next one in this series. Like all the other characters in her book, I am in love with Malcolm.

I wish there were a way to add a list of favorite authors to our book lists on GR. She would definitely be one of the ones on that list.

This was a beautifully written, slow burn story between two characters who have learned to trust no one but desperately need to. I'll probably be rereading this book slowly, in the future.

appalling.

dishearteningly banal, and lacking in any of the qualities that produce dramatic tension, amusement, or the slightest interest in reading a single word more.

nothing makes any sense. the writing is a series of declarative statements instead of illustrative description. everybody talks the same, and then suddenly with the smack-me-in-the-face-so-i-know-you-love-me.

just terrible.

i will not die reading this shitty book.
