This was awful and I can’t believe I finished it. America Singer (what an awful name) is a great value Katniss without being a badass. She’s extremely “not like other girls.” The book is just crammed full of every basic romance trope the author could think of, and not one is used well. Also, the writing is flat-out bad. There was nothing redeemable about this book. 

If you are thinking about listening to it instead of reading, don’t. The narrator is also bad.
