There is no doubt that Marie Lu is one of the best Young Adult writes out there. Her story was straight to the point and easy to follow, but if I'm being honest, the execution just wasn't all that great. For a short book I was expecting a little more, but the ending just left me bored and I doubt I'll be reading the rest of the series.

Day and June are both great characters on their own and as friends, but as a couple they just do not work. It was the most forced things I've ever read and if anything it was worse than reading a book with insta-love and we all know how much everyone hates insta-love.

Three stars I think is decent and fair, hopefully The Young Elites will be better, but I'll keep my fingers crossed. If you're new to Dystopian then I'd recommend it, but if you're bored with all the generic and cliché Dystopians then I'd say to stay well away.
