I thought this book was solid thriller with a twist on science fiction and dystopia. This book has massive trigger warnings for abuse in so many different forms. I really liked the lead character in this book This book really reminded me of the t.v show doll house. This book does have a small romance plot that I liked but was not the focus of the read. I really also liked the mystery elements that kept me reading and i loved the focus on female friendships in this read. I am super excited to tackled book 2! **** Spoilers***** Wow! Stepford wives meets Dean Koontz Frankenstein series, teen addition. The synopsis drew me in.......I love nefarious boarding school/academy stories.....but, this was even better than expected! This was great from the start.....although, being a woman and Mother of 4 girls, this was difficult to read at times......the treatment of the young girls, and the mysogony of the male characters, was infuriating! This is the first Suzanne Young book I've read, but it won't be the last...halfway through the book I went on Amazon and purchased the other books in this trilogy, as well as the box set of her series "The program". Bravo for an ending so well done! As apposed to ending on a cliff hanger and feeling dissatisfied...the way many series books end....this ended with a sense of closure, but with excitement and potential of things to come. My only gripe would be the death of Valentine....while I was happy with the Lennon Rose ending, I would have honestly preferred Valentine had survived instead. I find her character more interesting. Fingers crossed that they find some way to bring her back at a later date. I highly recommend this one for anyone who likes stories of this sort!! Well done Suzanne Young! I'm a new fan!! This is the first book I have read by Suzanne Young but it definitely won’t be the last, this book captured me more than I thought it would. It intrigued me but also horrified me in parts too. The all –girls boarding school is like a teen version of Stepford Wives, where girls are taught how to be the ‘perfect woman’, they are told what to wear, what to think, how to act and to obey their man. Mena notices things aren’t quite right with this set up and vows to stop it happening, her and her friends bring girl power to the table. “Some of the prettiest flowers have the sharpest thorns” – Ain’t that the truth! It was well written, a bit slow to start with but soon warmed up, good character development, I could not put it down and it is worrying that this kind of thing could happen. Bring on book 2 in the series. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
