The beginning of this story seems promising! I liked the concept of the world and I’m interested to see how Amity’s view of the peaceful society develops throughout the book. I’ll definitely keep an eye out for the full book when it releases!!

Thank you to net galley for the short sample I received <3

Thank you Netgalley for providing a sample for review.

I really like the idea of this book, especially since dystopian books are the genre that made me love reading. However, the writing style made it difficult for me to get into the book since it felt like the sentences didn't flow quite right, and as a result I wasn't really able to immerse myself into it. Additionally, the descriptions of items and people felt distracting and a bit disruptive in a way. I'm curious about what would happen, but at the same time I tragically don't think the writing style works for me.

Alright, I'm hooked. I was unaware this was just a sample of the book so please imagine my shock and consternation when I was thoroughly drawn into the world only to be unable to read more. Disappointment! Frustration! Why?! It is giving Divergent vibes so far, and the characters and world seem super interesting. I can't wait for pub day so I can finish this book! Thanks Netgalley for the sample!

'Privilege' is a dystopian YA novel that evokes many books of the golden era of dystopian fiction, such as Uglies, Divergent, and even Delirium. Hence, the premise is something familiar and feels kind of nostalgic. The characters seem interesting and relatable as well and there are hints of probable new relationship dynamics and even huge secrets to be uncovered. But, since I've only read the first chapters, I can't really say if the plot will pay off, though I enjoyed what I've read so far and what I predict might come.
