3.0

An enjoyable listen, the narrator was fantastic, but I'm not sure if I'll continue the series. I wish it had been more new adult than young adult—I couldn't really get over the fact that Bree's only 16, and I think it would have been better if she was slightly older, especially because the world-building was pretty complicated for a YA book.

Lots of side characters, lots of terms, and actual love triangle. I'll edit this later.
