Impostors by Scott Westerfeld
4.0

3.5 stars

I admit to being a tiny bit sceptical before reading this, as I didn't love [b:The Darkest Legacy|37688046|The Darkest Legacy (The Darkest Minds, #4)|Alexandra Bracken|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1522698149s/37688046.jpg|59175846], another book returning to a series and set 10 years later, but Impostors managed to do this successfully.

Part of that success lies in the fact that instead of returning to characters introduced in the previous books, it begins the start of a whole new story with all new characters. Oh sure there are a few plot holes, and the characters are pretty standard, but it is also a fast paced and engaging read. If you liked the previous books set in the Uglies world, you should be satisfied with this. I'm in for the next book.
