Red Rising is good, but. But. So many buts. It felt like five books combined into one. Not only did it combine so many elements of previous dystopian novels (Hunger Games, City of Ember, etc), but it felt very....choppy? Maybe? The narrator was highly excellent; I felt like he did a good job distinguishing among each character. I just didn't exactly love the story he was telling. Will probably need to read the actual book and not just listen to it if I decide to continue on with the series.
