The Young Elites by Marie Lu

Did not finish book. Stopped at 28%.

The pace of the book felt so slow, I didn't care for any of the characters and, while I understand the plot needs to unravel and the MC needs to develop their character, I was bored by how bland she was. The only times I liked the MC was when she would mentally comment on things (but of course never say them which made me find her too submissive for someone who we are meant to like). I skimmed to the end and was bored by the ending even though it seemed her character could get a backbone.
