The Grace Year by Kim Liggett
5.0
This is YA dystopian I guess, but it's so much more intelligent and well written than the books popular when I was a teen. It has very mature themes, so much so that I'm hesitant to even classify it as YA.
Very strong feminist themes, kind of like hunger games meets handmaids tale with a little bit of lord of the flies, but only a little.
I found Tierney so likeable and she didn't fall into so many of the annoying tropes that are prevalent in this genre. The romance was beautiful, the female friendships were fantastic and everything came together so well. I can't recommend this book enough.
