If I hadn't just [re]read the Red Rising series, this might, maybe, not seem so derivative. But I did, and it does. It feels like it's trying desperately to hit all the emotional plot points of Red Rising, but in a fluffier, YA tone.
Despite that, it's moderately entertaining.

The sharp metal stings, drawing blood. When I pull my hand back from my ear, I can see the crimson stain on my fingers.
Because my mind works this way...menstruation. Do women in this world not have periods/ Because, once a month, Little Miss Thing's body would give away the fact that she's a Red. Unless they have magic tampons.

A moment passes in silence, broken only by the bark of lieutenants far below, still drilling even as the sun sets.
"You were different to me, " he finally murmurs. Well, of course. Because she's the YA "speshul" snowflake. *rolls eyes*

I join Maven in a transport, headed for the first appearance. I'm itching to tell him about the list... I'm seeing betrayal coming several miles away. It's announcing itself with sirens and flashing lights.

Is Kilorn supposed to be likable? Because...ugh, I'm so missing that train. He's totally the creepy, Nice Guy, entitled prick type.

So far...emphasis on "so far," this is rabidly derivative but still entertaining.
