Her love and desire to protect the ones she claims as family is the source of her drive, her conviction. She learns that for how hard life is, it can always be harder. A new reason to live, to carve out a better life. From where she starts out, unbelieving, jaded, judgmental and only wanting those she loves to survive, she finds new purpose. The growth she goes through in this book is incredible. But with that being said, I loved how Delta’s feelings changed, and instead of a burden, this element became what she fought for.ĭelta was a fantastic character. I will say that I was a tad concerned at the beginning, because a certain element is introduced, and to be honest, I’m not a fan of it in YA. And I can’t reiterate enough how much I love this genre. ![]() I loved the Mad Max vibe this book had – pure survival dystopian. I was shocked, and then giddy with excitement. In all the things that I *thought* could happen, could explain everything, that wasn’t on my list. It threw me a curve ball I did not expect but thoroughly and absolutely loved. Give me more SF in YA and I’ll be so incredibly happy. If we’re bring back Dystopian as a genre, I am here for it. This new release, Dustborn, is everything, and I mean everything I love about Dystopian novels. I’m ashamed I haven’t picked them up yet, but clearly, I’ve been missing out. I desperately need to read her other books – they’re sitting on my shelves. I remember reading Taken in one sitting, in preparation for meeting Erin at a writing workshop. It’s been a while since I’ve read one of Erin’s books, and boy have I been missing out. I loved this book so much, and I can’t wait for everyone to read it!
