This book is so hard to review... on one hand the writing and story were absolutely brilliant, especially in the way that it unfolded. On the other, I felt like that political messages were quite heavy-handed especially towards the end. It also was anti-religion for the entirety of the novel. Religion was branded as the source of all evil starting with Elizabeth's parents all the way towards Avery's backstory.

I think for me it was a 5-star read up until the 60% mark and then the messaging made it harder for me to pick it up after putting it down.
