I read this physically as well as on audible. I definitely think the audiobook is doing the story a bit of a disservice, and I wasn’t a fan personally. However, the story itself is interesting. An almost Hunger Games kind of tournament except competitors aren’t held in an arena and can go anywhere in the city as long as their watches ping in a specific range every day or so. There was politics and romance which were executed somewhat interestingly, but this isn’t anything to go crazy over. That ending really hooked me though, and that’s probably the only reason I’ll continue the series.
