My only problem with this book was the world building. I didn't really get enough of an understanding of the world to really feel fear when the characters were in stressful situations or to understand how they felt at times. I am hoping this is going to be remedied with later installments in the series.
I also thought that not enough time was spent on the other girls at times. I know it's hard to flesh out 35 girls, but the ones that make it to the end would at least be worth understanding past the bare minimum to acknowledge their existence.
Overall, pretty pleased with this series so far and I am reading the second one now. I've found that some of those who loved the first book did not enjoy the second, so I am hoping it is different for me.
