Welcome to Litsy!

A very YA dystopian book. I‘m a sucker for a good dystopian book; so I of course liked it. 4 🌟

This too started slow, but then I was able to quickly follow. I enjoyed the dystopian concept, similar to the Divergent Series. Looking forward to the 2nd in the series.

This book was definitely a dystopian. It introduces a world where the government has so much control they are executing people for simple things. Although the book is a pleasant read and it avoids some tropes such as love triangles that plague the dystopian world it fails, in my eyes, to truly stand out. The over controlling government is not a new concept and I felt the characters could've developed better. Still a pleasant read despite that.

The premise is a dystopian where the world ends, not with a bang. It ends with a neo-conservative man overthrowing the government. But Simmons never seem to explain the hows or the whys it happened? Which is strange considering the character states in the beginning that she lived through the whole thing. This dystopian novel comes across as an angsty road trip across the states with a love interest where it‘s all crazy people and no morals.
