Summary of the Book:
A thrilling, ambitious debut that will appeal to fans of Ayana Gray’s Beasts of Prey and Nnedi Okorafor’s Binti Series.
By day, Evie is an outcast, a half-class. Too dark for the illustrious light class, and too fair for the lowly dark class, she is forced to walk the edge of the street with her head down and her paperwork ready.
By night, she rebels, burning down municipal buildings and raiding shops with her fellow half-classes by her side. It’s a dangerous life, but it’s simple—or it used to be. When Prince Cass walks into her aunt’s brothel, life becomes more complicated. Evie and the prince inadvertently hit it off, and her fellow rebels see a golden opportunity. Having a girl near the prince is the perfect way to find out exactly what the king is planning for the half-class. And unfortunately for Evie, that girl is her.
Day by day, Evie grows closer to Prince Cass, who’s far more charming than he should be, while the rebels use her information to strike back against his father. But the half-classes are turning ravenous in their retaliation.
Soon, they’ll want blood—the blood of someone Evie might be starting to love.
My Personal Review: I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. This is is a book that taking the reader on a wild ride between classes divided and the line that is in-between. It shows that we all have something to overcome. That not everything is as it seems. I like Evie is an interest character. She is part of a group that is trying to take doing the upper crust known as the Light Class. She is part of the half-class that is to dark for the Light Class, but to light for her the Dark Class. The King is planning something that could destroy the Half-Class and in the process of trying to find a way to stop the King Evie meets Prince Cass at her Aunt’s place of business. Now those she is working with want to use him for their cause. Evie is torn for she is developing feeling for Cass. What is a girl to do?
My Rating of the Book: 4 Stars
