That was a poorly written book. I don't think of myself as a hard to please reader. Throw some thought provoking dystopian themes into almost anything and I'll eat it up... but not this. I did like the premise of the book. Unfortunately, that's the most good I have to say. The character developments were shallow and the relationships in general were not well developed. There were a good number of rough transitions which made the story feel like it was struggling to flow. The worst transition of all was the climax of the story, it just came out of nowhere and then the book ended before it was done. Ugh. That was awful. I have never said this about a book but, in this case, I bet the movie will be better.
