** spoiler alert ** 
 I would have rated this book a five star novel, if only certain things didn't bother me. Honestly, this book was good, I enjoyed it alot. I just had some problems... 
 1) I think it's kind of wrong that Cicily got pregnant at age 13. 
 2) My three favorite characters were Jenna, Rose and Gabriel. Rose dies, and I totally understood. Then Jenna died and I thought: That is messed up! She was such a great character. I couldn't believe it. 
 3) Okay, everyone says that Rose and Linden were totally in love... cool, so when she died you'd think he'd be miserable, and he was! Then after a month later, he lightens up and it's like, "Okay, my true love just died, but that's okay, I have other wives, I shouldn't forget about them" So he throws a two month anniversary and gets Cicily pregnant. Totally wrong! 
 4) Boys die at 25, girls die at 20... must I say anymore? (It's unfair!) 
 5) The ending was confusing. It left me thinking: WHAT JUST HAPPENED? 
 6) Rhine starts to develop feelings for Linden, and I was like "NO WAY!" I mean, just because he didn't know that his father bought you after you were stolen from your town and twin brother and then forced you to marry him that you have to feel bad for him. It's Lindens' fault for being so clueless, and let's not forget you're sharing him with two other girls! Just stick with the plan to become the first wife and escape, don't get too attached to him. 
 It was a good story, I loved it, it's just those things that kept bothering me.
