A Deadly Education

I really liked the story althought the world building was all a bit vague to me. I don't really like the giant whole chapter lessons that the book gives about the world. It take you totally out of the story, as does the adressing of the audience which is weirdly done about three times totally out of nowhere. 

I like the story of El getting friends and learning of a new way to live but all that shit about Orion wasn't great to me. Especially given the ending, where her mother says to not trust him. I have the vague feeling that the second book is just going to be pining and confused romatic squabbles which I really do not care for.
