Great story

The writing is really great, and I like the character arcs. There is a lot of violence, and I have to say that it feels quite realistic what would happen in a war situation. The story isn’t as good as the Half Bad books where I cried and laughed while listening, but it is still amazing especially when I compare it with 90% of the YA series on the market (dull, cookie cutter story, smutty etc).
