Do not discount this book due to it’s slower paced start! It gets really good, and does a lot of world building to start out which can lead to some laggy plot. Once I got to know Day and June it was a whole new world. I really enjoyed getting both of their backstories.
The second half of this book is definitely the better half, and I’m eager to read the next books in the series. There were several plots that I didn’t see coming and I love when a book isn’t entirely predictable. Dystopian style America/world is one of my favorite worlds to read in and I’m excited to be hooked by a new story with those themes.
I’m starting to become a huge fan of the alternating POVs in books. It really lets me get into the heads of the characters and I feel like it just molds the story so much better than a single POV.
