This was interesting. A unique take on a future, totalitarian government. The book was, just a little bit, like Matched. Though, I think, Matched was much stronger and better done overall.
I'd describe this novel like a very modern, totalitarian Romeo and Juliet. I must admit, I am not a huge fan of the Romeo/Juliet theme ... so the book wasn't that engaging for me.
The characters were likable and interesting. But, once the whole falling in love started to happen, I thought the characters lost all sense of logic and reason. It IS possible to be in love AND rational ... something that eludes these characters.
I gave it 3 stars as it kept me reading, and I thought it was pretty well written.
