The Darkest Minds

Halfway through I'm finally throwing in the towel.

This book has some interesting plot ideas, but terrible execution. Things are introduced, then discarded. It's as if the author set up all these extra plot lines for sequels, but never focused on the original storyline.

I kept hoping the book would get better. In spurts it did, then it'd fall back into a boring predictable unfinished YA mess.

I thought it'd be a hidden gem. Instead, it's just another humdrum YA novel in an ocean of others.
