1.0

I think I'm probably way out of the age range for this, but almost every aspect of the book feels hollow and underdeveloped, not to mention how generic and clichéd it is. It does acquire a sort of so-bad-it's-good charm after a while, I guess. Probably best for people who have never read any dystopia or YA before.
