This quasi post-apocalyptic series is not quite as clever as Hunger Games or Uglies or even Shattered, but it still holds my attention and for the intended YA audience I think it succeeds. I did want to slap Beatrice or pull her hair quite a few times because I think much of the conflict could have been avoided if she was more trusting but I guess that's one of the messages that Roth is sending to her readers and maybe that is a life-lesson to learn the hard way.
