Nina Oberon's life has changed enormously in the last few months. When her mother was killed, Nina discovered the truth about her father, the leader of the Resistance. And now she sports the same Governing Council-ordered tattoo of XVI on her wrist that all sixteen-year-old girls have. The one that announces to the world that she is easy prey to predators. But Nina won't be anyone's stereotype. And when she joins an organization of girls working within the Resistance, she knows that they can put an end to one of the most terrifying secret programs the GC has ever conceived. Because the truth always comes out . . . and the consequences can be deadly. 

Thoughts

The book follows on from the ending of the last book, and we follow Nina and how she is coping with everything that happened. During the book, she joins a group of girls that are rebelling against the system.

I found myself loving this book and just fell straight into the story. The writing just flows so smoothly and just so well written. This became such a feminist read as you have these girls fighting against the system.

I loved Nina and found that she had grown so much from the previous book, but with the events of the last book she has had to and fast.

There is supposed to be a third book in this series, and with the cliffhanger, we are left on, I hope it is going to be sooner rather than later, but I really am not holding out much hope.
