This book has been recommended to me about a million times over the years, but it was always recommended as "The Bachelor if it was for royals." Which... I think is an unfair way to frame the book. I never read the blurb, and that's on me, but this book is a Dystopian saga that actually touches on tough social topics involving class and caste systems. I wish I had read it a lot sooner, but I really enjoyed it. It has some tropes that I don't love (I'm looking at you, Miscommunication Trope..) but overall it's really enjoyable and I read through the first three very quickly.
