2013 Review: "OMG. Why did I wait to start this series!?" 5+ stars
2018 Review: "Sweet jeebus. Five years really can make the difference. I have just one question: why is it that near-rape, sex, racism, ageism, etc. can be discussed at length in a YA novel.... but we have to make up new swear words, seemingly because of the intended audience's sensitivities? Seriously. Plus, that male narrator was... atrocious." 2.5 too-generous stars ...more

I ended up really enjoying this book.
During the first 100 or so pages I wasn't too invested. The mystery of what was going on was keeping my attention and I liked Amy's chapters. It took me a bit of time to get into Elder's perspective and what was happening now so many years in the future.
However after those 100 pages, I couldn't put the book down.
I'm very curious about the next book and how things unfold now that secrets have been revealed. ...more

"Because I like a little chaos."
"Because I like a little chaos" is one of my favorite lines in this book. You will see the ending coming from a mile away. The whole book is predictable to be honest. It was a good read though. But it wasn't good enough to lose sleep to read it. Amy is the best character to me. Harley was my second favorite. ...more
