[Erica D · Rating 5 out of 5]

what an interesting dystopian novella - I was invested and intrigued by the characters and story from the start.

the poems throughout tie the story together.

I wanted to explore more of this world and see where things went, but was also happy with how it ended.

Alysa Wolfe has a great writing style that I was invested in what was happening. The characters were interesting and I had a great time in their world. It was what I was hoping for from the description and look forward to more from the author.

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
