As cool as the plot line is, this is another YA that falls short of knocking the ball out the park. 

There are a lot of questions, post festival, like:
where was Val living if she ran out her parents window?? What about Jasmine’s parents? And what happened to her brother? What does daily life look, walking around as a ghoul?
 

There were also holes with the “zombie”- like universe, and the pace moved SO SLOW!!!! For a dystopian like book, I was really hoping this would be a fast pace story, with more action and less back and forth teenage romance b.s. 

But that’s what it was, in my opinion, and it was a real let down.
