I. LOVED. THIS. SERIES. The only thing I will say, though, is that the first couple of chapters were a little bit slow, but once you get past those, it's GREAT. And, I really never read books that don't have at least some amount of romance in it, but this book was really good! Even though it had a little bit of it, it wasn't like it was terrible because it was barely there. I think it was a little bit refreshing, maybe, to read a book that was mainly focused just on the adventure side of it, rather than it being split between adventure and romance. But, either way, it was really good, so you should 100% read it!

This book out of the main three is definitely my favorite. I read these books before I watched the movies. I had a friend tell me that if you watch the movies before you read the books it’s not as enjoyable. Personally, if you enjoy books like the Hunger Games, the Divergent series, or dystopian future books in general then this is 100% a yes to read.

it’s mysterious and juicy the whole time and they don’t explain anything until the last page. that’s a good adventure suspense novel and now i HAVE to go pick up the sequel. DO NOT SKIP THE EPILOGUE.

I’ve seen the movies first, and liked them and knew of the book. I wish I read the book first to avoid spoilers. This book was sooo good  I read it really quickly once I got into it. The perfect dystopian ya book and a great start to the series. It looks like this book got me out of a reading slump 👍🏻 (written when I finished it; the middle of the night)

Bruh. I received this book as a Christmas present like 5 years ago, and I finally got round to reading it, and I'm honestly surprised. Since the synopsis was quite vague, I wasn't 100% sure what to expect - the book went in an entirely different direction than anticipated. I feel like some parts of the story were disconnected from each other, and I wish the ending happened at a bit of a slower pace to match the rest of the book
