My Thoughts:
Cover/Title: The cover & title don't really give much away. The synopsis of this book is what drew me in. I love dystopian books.
Characters: I liked the characters a lot. They had a lot of conviction and really stood behind their beliefs.
Plot: The plot idea was intriguing. It was a very different point of view for a dystopian society. I found that the society was intriguing but not without its flaws.
Overall: I really enjoyed this book. I would definitely like to read more in the series.
