I don't really know what I thought going into this. I guess I knew it was pretty popular, and it was about a society where love was 'cured' and that the main character was bound to rise up and fight the system, but I didn't really have any other expectations. And I think that perhaps that was best.

This book had moves that reminded me of Logan's Run and I thoroughly enjoyed the premise. The characters were vivid and the plot moved. I am anxious to continue the series. I am not going to spoil the book for you. Read and find out why it is a great dystopian novel. If you loved Matched, Hunger Games, or other young adult dystopian journeys, you will appreciate what Lauren Oliver has accomplished here.

Okay, the first half had me scratching my head a bit, it seemed a bit overly done or something. But the second half had me holding my breath and I couldn't turn the pages fast enough! In the end, this is a book that despite having a familiar dystopian storyline, will have me thinking about it for a long time after reading.
