The strongest character in this book is Alyssa, who is barely in the story. I thought Lexi was going to be this bad-asses take no crap kind of female lead, and the more the story goes on, the more child-like and weak she becomes.

By the time she learns to fight, I was so ready to be done with the book that I didn't care. She constantly needs to be saved by Cole, Bruno, Sutton, Zeus, or Keegan. I found Lexi to be a weak character and female in general. I felt completely disconnected from them, and I got the impression of them just being placeholders. It's no wonder she got branded with Lust. I typed it that way on purpose, and yes it hurt to do so. I hate to ruin the surprise for everyone, but Lexi and Cole fall madly in Luv. However, she's the one sinner who is protected. She's falsely accused of lust by her mother and is sent to the hole.

We follow the story through Lexi Hamilton's eyes. I love the idea behind this book, but I was left unsatisfied. It's disgusting and surrounded by death and war. The hole is a prison where the sinners work and live. The government's fallen and in an attempt to create a perfect society the crimes are the seven sins and offenders are sent to what is called the hole. The premise behind this book sounds awesome. It was my third choice, but I kept having issues with books and stuff. There's a ton of books I want to read that have come out recently, so I'm hoping that they'll be listed on unlimited. What's been happening with that unread folder is that I'll read two chapters and just delete whatever book it is because I can't get into it. I think that the price is going to be worth it. I've been tossing around the idea for awhile, and finally decided to go with the free trial. I finally took the plunge and invested in Amazon's Kindle Unlimited.
