I feel like I put off reading this book for so long because Sci-Fi wasn’t my genre but this book was good.  I feel like I probably would have liked it more as a teenager.  While the plot was entertaining it also left a few things unexplained.  It just felt a little dull at some moments and dragged out for others.  

I also kinda had a pet peeve about Citra’s and Rowan’s relationship, it felt very forced and out of place.  It was honestly uncomfortable to read, it was like because they were around the same age they had to wind up together…
