The Hunger Games meets the Maze Runner meets the Handmaid’s Tale. A little gruesome in parts but nothing too graphic. Immediately one of my favourite books; I read it in two days. Can’t recommend it enough. Perfect for those of us who loved those dystopian books when we were in school but want something a bit more reflective now. Loved it.
