Review: Battlefield

Battlefield by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Synopsis:

Devyn was not born; she was created, and for a very important purpose: she was born to die. 

Possibly. 

If she made it out of the Battlefield alive with her Unit composed of eight people just like her, she's promised the freedom she had only previously dreamed of. But in order to do so, she must kill members of other rival Units fighting for the same thing. When you're raised to be a weapon, fighting - killing - is the only thing you know. At least, that's what Gerard, her breeding partner, constantly tells her. Just because they were, quite literally, made for each other didn't mean they had to like each other, but they definitely had to trust each other if they wanted to survive.

My Thoughts:

Cover: Well it is ok but definitely doesn't tell the reader much about the book.

Title: Well there is definitely a battlefield....

Characters: Although I liked the characters somewhat, I feel the reader isn't let in on much. There is no real background other than they were created for the games.

Plot: The plot definitely mirrored The Hunger Games. There are some differences. Instead of having your name drawn to be a competitor, they were created just for this game.

Overall: I wish there had been more background detail. Their daily schedule seemed to be eating, fighting and having sex. I couldn't picture their world or life very well. I would have liked to have learned more about their lives and their world.
