I have been looking forward to another gripping dystopia this month and again I am really disappointed. The premise sounded so good and I really enjoyed the world-building. It was an interesting world with a very dark and brutal atmosphere. Still I had a feeling I missed some details in this world which needed some more explanations. Unfortunately the storyline felt pretty dragging to me. I read almost 100 pages until there was at least a little progress in this story. I also had the feeling that the central theme in this story was very weak. This had the effect that I never felt at home in this book or got emtional involved. The characters felt very distant to me as well. I also think that were too many perspectives and some of them weren't really needed. This first part of a series didn't really catch my intention very much, so I am not going to continue reading it.
