What’s it about?

Wren Darlington has been in hiding since she can remember.  When her uncle is taken prisoner, she impulsively goes after him.  This marks the beginning of a journey she could not have foreseen.

What did it make me think about?

Who doesn't love a good page-turner?

Should I read it?

Well, this book is getting a lot of hype for being a cross between The Hunger Games and Fourth Wing.  Having read the book, I kind of get it.  This is a dystopian romance, and the pages fly by.  I enjoyed it.  It was exactly as described. I enjoyed the first two-thirds of the book more than the last third, but that may have just been my preference.  It got a little far-fetched towards the end.  Of course, it is the first installment in a three-part trilogy, and I will be reading the next book when it comes out.  It has my attention.  For all you fans of Fourth Wing- this book is a simpler story, but I think you will still enjoy it.

A passage I marked

"Every single one of these people would happily see me dead if they knew what I was.  They've been taught from birth that there's something wrong with me.  I'm an aberration.  I'm defective.  I don't belong in society among the likes of them."
