BETTER THAN EXPECTED.

This has been floating on my radar for awhile but I kept putting it off for other books. I had a small break in-between audio holds and here we are! I now have a new series I want to continue (Thank heavens it’s already complete).

I LOVED this dystopian reimagining of Les Mis. I could clearly see the nods and allusions to the original classic, but throwing it much more sci-fi aspects on a whole new planet.

The characters were perfectly set for a YA fantasy read. I don’t think I have any major complaints about anyone. I liked the progression of individual journeys and how things flowed up and down until that intense ending. I would love to continue and see how things continue to shake out.

It is a BIG book and I did read it as an audio. I don’t know if that helped me move through it better of if I would have thought things were a bit long. There’s a lot more to the world building and political system I’m intrigued by and the raw experiences that kept happening.

Overall audience notes:
- YA Dystopian
- Language: a little
- Romance: kisses
- Violence: high
- Trigger/Content Warnings: torture, death/execution, persecution, murder, oppression, abuse
