I got sucked straight into this world from the first page. The world is crumbling around June and Day, and the setting just came to life. I could smell the stink of the Lake area, feel the burning of the sun as it beams down on LA, hear the protesting against the government. The imagery was endless, and I can't wait to see what's next!
Oh...and the boy!
Every time I read a dystopian novel, I find myself amazed how authors can make a dirty, sweaty, bloody boy so sexy! But Marie Lu managed to do it! I absolutely loved Day--he's tough and doesn't let anyone walk over him. He's passionate and goes with his feelings; and he's cool and calculating. I fell in love with him!
