Review
He was dead.
When I started to read this book, I didn't think it was going to be as good as the Legend series by Marie Lu. I want to take that back because this book was full of surprises. Some of the events that happened in this book were crazy. I thought this girl was a psychopath. She emotions were unpredictable at times and it would confuse me. You can tell that Marie Lu is an amazing author. Not many authors are able to switch things around during a book to make a plot twist. I also recommend this book. You'll love it no matter what. There's some romance, drama, and emotion in this book. You'll love it!
