Rebel by Amy Tintera
4.0

The pace, writing and plot of this book was so much better than Reboot!

The plot expanded to include two villains and really challenged the idea that Wren had nothing human about her. I liked that Tintera offered POV from Wren and Callum but Callum came off very robotic. The romance got a little cheesy for me but I still liked that ship.

THANK👏 YOU👏 for having a character say "it's her choice" when referring to a woman taking birth control!

I think this dystopian suffers from what all other YA dystopians seem to. The ending is too clean. There's not enough loss. I thought Tintera was going there when Callum got shot but then he came back and I got some frustrated and annoyed and disappointed. Take that step!
