The Trade Off by Sandie Jones

3.0

Very meh book for probably the first 60%, I really had no idea what was happening because I was too bored to get invested. However the last bit was really powerful and important and excellent. The writing was still great regardless of the slow story which is why I’m giving it 3 stars.

They were parts of this book that I really felt we’re unnecessary to the story and just added confusion to the plot. While I understand that part of the allure of this book was to not know who to trust or who to like, it really left me a bit disconnected because I had no idea who’s side I was on. Well, the overall message of the story is very important and the ending provided a really good read, the boring first half of this book really lost it for me.
