Inside Out Book Review






Today I just finished reading this book. Inside Out by Maria V. Snyder was an excellent read. To be honest at first I didn't think I would like this book. I heard of this book from Booktubers I watch on YouTube. I read the plot and thought it sounded really good. Normally this book wouldn't be my type. I'm into mostly romance books. I thought I might as well give this book a chance. I put it on my to-read list. It has been on the list for a while. I wasn't planning on getting it anytime soon. Then I went to New Hampshire to visit my grandparents. I knew there was a bookstore there, and I asked my mom if I could go. I went to the bookstore and knew I was gonna come out with books. But I didn't think I would come out with this book. I bought four other books. I put it on my shelf for a month. Recently I thought I should read it because I was in the mood to read a dystopian novel. I wasn't sure if I would like it because I have been disappointed with dystopians right now. I read Divergent because of the hype and I actually did not like it! It wasn't the absolute worst book ever, but I didn't love it. My sister loved the book and told me to read it. After I finished the book I decided to read Insurgent because I heard that book was better than the first. Let me tell you that book was awful! I don't know why I didn't like the book. Nothing happened and it was so boring. The series sounded amazing! The characters were so one dimensional. Anyway back to Inside Out. This book was just so much better than Divergent. I was never bored reading this book. I loved the characters and the different world. Here is what the book is about:

Keep Your Head Down.
Don't Get Noticed.
Or Else.

I'm Trella. I'm a scrub. A nobody. One of thousands who work the lower levels, keeping Inside clean for the Uppers. I've got one friend, do my job and try to avoid the Pop Cops. So what if I occasionally use the pipes to sneak around the Upper levels? The only neck at risk is my own...until I accidentally start a rebellion and become the go-to girl to lead a revolution.

Now here's my summary.
The book is pretty much just about all these people who have to work for a long time each day, inside. Now there are two different places. Inside is the lower level. Everyone that lives in Inside has to work for a living. They are treated unfairly and eat disgusting food. There's really not much love inside. There's no families either. If a baby is born, the baby gets send to the care facility. There's no point in finding a mate. Also the lower levels are poor. Anyone that lives Inside, cannot go Outside. Outside is a better place to live than Inside. Outside is a richer environment where everyone gets an apartment. They get to eat better food. All Outsiders should find a mate, but they can only have one child. If there is an accident, the baby gets sent to a care facility and becomes a scrub and worker in the Inside. So the main character is a sixteen year old girl named Trella. She doesn't know anything about her parents and doesn't want to. Her best friend is a guy named Cogon. They are good friends and he shows her a guy they call Broken Man. The man is old and can't take care of himself so Trella helps out. She always climbs in and sneaks through the vents. She brings the old man food. Broken Man tells her he has a way that she can escape Inside. After a while she tries to think of a plan to get out with the help of Cogon, Logan and Anne-Jade. She meets a boy named Riley who lives Outside. Trella meets him in his secret room she finds one day. They become friends and there is some romance between them. I don't want to give everything away. I'm telling you to go out and buy this book now!! If you like science fiction then this book is good for you. Maria V. Snyder has a talent with her ideas. I found out she thought of this book from a dream. This book was so good and better than I thought it would be. Go buy this book now!!
