A review by underthemoon_
Red Rising by Pierce Brown

adventurous emotional tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.75

4.5 stars for pure entertainment. -.75 because the book seems to want to communicate a clear moral but fails to consistently state what that moral would be either structurally or in text. I've never read a book about eugenics where the author's own opinion about eugenics is this unclear.
