This book is supposed to be YA but there are several sex scenes. The scenes are awkward as hell and seemed so out of place with the urgency that Aster is trying to generate. The time jumps throughout this book really got on my nerves. Just as the sense of urgency is starting to be felt, you get a time jump or awkward sex scene. I feel as though the switch was abrupt and the “twists” were so easy to see coming. I also don’t like how it ended and there is clearly going to be a book 3. I doubt I’ll read it right away. This book is also very repetitive and I feel as though several chapters could have been removed and still got the same point across. None of the characters are really likable to me. Overall, this needed at least another of editing and someone should have helped Aster plot the story.
