This was my first Aimee Carter experience and I thought it was really cool. I think it's so provocative, especially at first. <br /><br />Aly @ <a href="http://myheartheartsbooks.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">My Heart Hearts Books </a>Alyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915699621994444274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-83434946774517336322013-11-14T20:59:50.209-05:002013-11-14T20:59:50.209-05:00Nice review of this one Melissa!

Bad girl! Anyway...<br /><br />Dystopians. I do love them but I also hate them. Scary societies, teens that need to save the world, some great writing/some terrible writing.

I'm going to have to add this to my TBR pile. Even though the relationship was lacking, it seems pretty good overall. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

The world-building lacked for me and the characters were only so-so to me, but I can see why a lot of people are going to enjoy this one :) The whole concept was unique and I definitely give her credits for that.Mel@Thedailyprophecyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01516514938771433319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-61205941287226215602013-11-14T11:25:38.047-05:002013-11-14T11:25:38.047-05:00Very very glad to see you liked PAWN!

I was worried Kitty would start out strong and then kind of lose who she was in the craziness of the Hart's world, but I loved that she stayed strong throughout and always seemed to know herself no matter the face she wore. Can't wait to see where things go in book two, fabulous review!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-5079078410406712592013-11-14T09:34:07.843-05:002013-11-14T09:34:07.843-05:00Oooh four stars!
