The Young Elites by Marie Lu

2.0

2.5. Good setting, good worldbuilding. I'm a sucker for X-Men, and the powers were cool. Some were more interesting than others (wish we got more of the Architect). I just wanted one lovable, funny side character (preferably with powers), is that so much to ask? Adelina was OK, she kinda grew on me. I don't ship her and Enzo (who needs to STAY DEAD). Everyone else was kind of boring. My FAVORITE part of this book was the villain, Teren, intimidating and sympathetic (with powers to boot!). So interesting! I can't get the hilarious image out of my head of the Dagger Society making playing cards for each of their members, I mean how else does the whole city know their "super-cool" nicknames. I just don't think your secret society should be advertising how many members they have.
