Are people getting paid to give this book 5 star ratings? If so, I can't be bought! This book was such a huge let down for me. The synopsis sounded so exciting and so twisted! It could have been so good. The writing to be fair, was good, but Alexandra's story was sooo boring. This was supposed to be a thrilling page turner and I had serious trouble picking it up after I put it down. It was the most boring apocalyptic novel I've ever read. Boring and apocalyptic shouldn't be in the same sentence. I just felt like punching Mae, the main character, in the face the entire time.
