*ARC review*
First time reading a dystopian novel that puts the black community in the spotlight and it did not disappoint. The world building is good, every plot points presented was explored enough but left some room to tackle for the sequels. I also love the fact that the plot did not focus alot on romance. However,the characterization did not offer something new for me.
*Thanks to NetGalley for allowing me to read an ARC of this book.*
