Damn this book was slow and boring. And much of it isnt even very original. It feels like it took pieces from The Giver and Hunger Games and a couple of other popular dystopia books and tried to smash it all together into its own seties. Its a long book on its own, but a good 70% of it is just to stretch it out into a series. Its proof that just because you can make a story into a series doesn't mean you should. I was frequently bored by all the "not much happening" that goes on in this story and just when it finally starts to get interesting, it ends and you're supposed to invest in another whole book to get the next part. Nope, I gave this author 360 odd pages to tell the story. That's a decent length in the first place. I'm not wasting more time and money because the author wants to have a series where (if the first book is anything to go by) a single book would have easily sufficed to tell everything that can be told of this story. There just isn't anywhere near the content and entertainment to justify this being a series instead of a single, medium length novel.
