As per usual, I give YA books more leniency in rating. Also is everyone in this book queer?????
Natasha girl that last 30%... SISTER I ATE THAT UP.
Like the tonal shift from the first book and this one is sort of jarring not going to lie. And it's not to say the premise isn't there, these girls are going from sexual oppression to fighting a war and tyranny. As such the tone should have been maintained but we jump from the consequences of war to dick jokes. Some of the books conflicts didn't even need to occur but sister that last 30 percent and how it ended??? I might as well finish the trilogy
