I received a copy of this book as an
ARC (Advanced Readers Copy) from Harpercollins International. I wish to review
this book not because I’m compelled to do but I wanted to. All words in this
review are solely my own.
For the record, this post-apocalyptic
dystopian novel made me feel a lot of feelings for a debut novel, from fear, to
pain, to anger, to love. As I took a break from another book (my e-reader), I
picked up this book and started reading. And I didn’t put it down until I was
done with it. Like at 3 am in the morning.
I loved how this book is kind of a
mixture of the Hunger Games and The Maze Runner as it offered. You’ll get the
combined thrill of reading those two books. Also reminded me of Pawn by Aimee
Carter, Chaos Walking by Patrick Ness and Stolen by Melissa Dela Cruz, but this
book is original, I promise.
And
man, Tom knows how to name his characters. Hope, Book, Cat, Faith. Now that is
what I call a genius. Also no book had ever made me want something so much from
a book, and what I wanted here was a twin sister. I so wish I’d had a twin
sister. “H and FT.” *Sob-fest* Thank you for splitting my soul into two Tom
Isbell. Also I found here my new Annabeth and Percy. Hope and Book!
I can’t further explain how good
this book is, just trust me. Trust me that it’s worth the read and you won’t
regret it. I bet you would even thank me for recommending it. A lot of
dystopian books are out on the market now, but if you want a great read. Grab a
copy of this book right now. Just remember what makes you different gets you in
danger and at the same time makes you dangerous.
Rate: 5/5 Stars
