Violet has been sentenced to death for crimes committed in
her female run society, but she is given a 2nd chance if she will
spy in the neighboring male run land. However, Patrus life is more difficult
and dangerous than Violet expected.
What you may enjoy:
Engaging story and plot. If you like dystopian books, you’ll
most likely enjoy this. There is a lot of fighting and action. Not as much
romance as most dystopians.
What you may NOT
enjoy:
The main character is difficult to connect with and enjoy. She’s
your typical cliché dystopian character. Some of the details just don’t make
sense and seem a little forced to keep the plot moving.
