The writing is good and the story was interesting to begin with but once it got to the war, I lost interest.

I liked this a lot more than I expected to. Even with the drama, I found it somehow relaxing.

Wow. This might be the most impactful and emotional book I've read. The devastating stories of these students and the history and politics relating to their stories was told in a caring and heartbreaking way .

I hate Jordan and the rest of the story isn't interesting enough to put up with her parts.

I actually DNF'd this at 87% but I'm counting it as read. The beginning started out promising. But around half way through it became really slow. Then at 70% it was one irritating thing after another. There is a long very detailed sex scene and then the story went super crazy to the point I didn't even care how it ends. I'm going to stick with TJ Klune's newer work.
