Scythe is an amazing and captivating book with all of its suspense, action, and rivalries. Throughout the book, I felt as if there was no boundary between me and the characters in the book and I was there at every moment and action. Neal Shusterman does an excellent job at keeping the reader captivated and entertained. The story and plot never disappointed me from the concept of ‘gleaning’ or killing, to the ending scene. The significant plot twists throughout the book always had me thinking and suspecting what would happen next. I would recommend this book to everyone and can’t wait to finish the series with the next 2 books.
