I have been meaning to read a few of these Amazon Originals Novellas for a while as I have loved the ones I have read. Sadly, even though I am a huge fan of Veronica Roth this one was a bit lackluster and lacked a bit of storyline for me. I understand what Roth was trying to go for with reminding us that life is about the little things and the moments that stick with us forever even when we are facing death head on but it just didn't find its footing with me.
I think if this novella was made into a novel I might have enjoyed it better but I just wasn't a huge fan of how everything played out and I often felt myself drifting away from the story while reading it. I am not sure if Sci-Fi novellas are for me as the only novellas I have truly enjoyed have been literary fiction or fantasy.
