Breakaway by Michelle Diener

Did not finish book.

I really liked the beginning of this book. Interesting characters, a “breakup to protect you” trope I didn’t hate because it happened before we got invested in the relationship, and a setup that felt like Rogue One, but better. I really wanted to like this.

But about half way through, I started loosing track of what was happening—there’s a lot going on with factions at multiple levels, and betrayals happening in all of them. And the romance takes a backseat to this. Then by 70%, I couldn’t keep track of who all the people on the page were. They were all newly introduced and I had no emotional connection to them
