LOVE <3 The second book is mysteriously MIA in my country though ;_;
I really loved The Young Elites and can not wait to read the sequel!
Despite the fact I'm not a huge fan, I'm quite fond of this one.
I remember most of it..The ending was something I didn't like. The kind of epilogue part of it. But it's still pretty good. I like Marie Lu's Legend Trilogy much more though.
I have this on my TBR list. I think it would be a good series to read!
It was okay...Wasn't my favorite..Not the ending though. Heck no.
This isn’t my favorite of Marie Lu, but still a good book! I wouldn’t recommend this to most people though. I kind of found myself wanting to read the next book, so I would rate this a 3/5.
I adore this trilogy. The second book is still one of my favorite books of all time but I think they all hold up phenomenally well. Magnificent work from this author, definitely my favorite work of hers.
I am tired of being used, hurt, and cast aside.
Adelina Amouteru is a survivor of the blood fever. A decade ago, the deadly illness swept through her nation. Most of the infected perished, while many of the children who survived were left with strange markings. Adelina’s black hair turned silver, her lashes went pale, and now she has only a jagged scar where her left eye once was. Her cruel father believes she is a malfetto, an abomination, ruining their family’s good name and standing in the way of their fortune. But some of the fever’s survivors are rumored to possess more than just scars—they are believed to have mysterious and powerful gifts, and though their identities remain secret, they have come to be called the Young Elites.
Teren Santoro works for the king. As Leader of the Inquisition Axis, it is his job to seek out the Young Elites, to destroy them before they destroy the nation. He believes the Young Elites to be dangerous and vengeful, but it’s Teren who may possess the darkest secret of all.
Enzo Valenciano is a member of the Dagger Society. This secret sect of Young Elites seeks out others like them before the Inquisition Axis can. But when the Daggers find Adelina, they discover someone with powers like they’ve never seen.
Adelina wants to believe Enzo is on her side, and that Teren is the true enemy. But the lives of these three will collide in unexpected ways, as each fights a very different and personal battle. But of one thing they are all certain: Adelina has abilities that shouldn’t belong in this world. A vengeful blackness in her heart. And a desire to destroy all who dare to cross her.
It is my turn to use. My turn to hurt.
