Kiersten White
⭐: 5/5
Pros: if you're a fan of Hunger Games, this book will be up your alley in terms of gore and survival. However, the premise for which the candidates are chosen couldn't be further from HG.
I really enjoyed how the story has a primary character, but how it feels as if a narrator is telling it from a third party point of view. It wasn't confusing at all. I also was intrigued with the background and development overall. I'm highly considering buying this and adding it to my thriller section!
Cons: I despise cliffhangers and this has one! I know many readers love them, so maybe that's not a con for you. Also, the world "incongruous" is used several times. Not a big turnoff, but it's one that I don't hear often in every day speak, so to hear it so much in this book, made my ears perk. Again, not really a horrible con. I just do all my reviews in pro/con format, so needed something here.
Conclusion: if you're wanting a fairly quick read that keeps you on the edge of your seat, has a unique take on things, and isn't something you've read before, pick this one up!
