I’ll be honest, I didn’t let myself have high expectations going into this book. I’ve followed a few authors who document their writing through social media, and have always been disappointed with the outcome. I think they tend to jump into publishing too quickly. But Lauren is a very talented writer, and within just a couple of chapters I was hooked. The plot is interesting, the characters are captivating, and the relationships feel real, despite taking place in a fantasy world. If you enjoy books like The Hunger Games, Divergent, The Maze Runner, etc. you will probably enjoy Powerless too.
