I think Veronica Roth is a one hit wonder as far as authors go. I really enjoyed the first two books of hers in the Divergent series (the third book was a disappointment). I had tried reading one of her other books before trying this one. However, I found that I couldn’t get into it. It was boring. I think her writing style lets the story down and as such I won’t be picking up anything from this author again. I’m done.
