This was a gripping and exciting, it is slightly similar to other YA books but is expertly written and completely stands out. I really did love this book and have already pre-ordered the paperback version of the next book in the series which my amazon account informs me is due out 25th Jan 2018.
The main character is Celestine, a seemingly perfect teenage girl in a dystopian world where the rules are very strict and if you put one foot out of line you are characterized as 'Flawed'. Celestine was perfect until she showed compassion to an eldery poorly 'Flawed' member of society on a bus. Now she is the most 'Flawed' person that has ever come before her, branded six times with the word, her whole life has changed and she is starting a rebellion against the system.
There are a lot of secondary characters but none of them stood out to me in this book, I suspect they will come into the story more in the next books in the series.
The storyline has similar aspects to other YA books but it is brilliatly written and gripping. The pacing is good building all the way through until the end when the climax hits and then building towards the next book in the series.
