★ℕłℂØℓҾ★ (Nix) (ladyknightnix) | 4549 comments I really enjoyed them both, but I just really loved The Young Elites (The Young Elites, #1) by Marie Lu ! Adelina was a truly unique heroine for me, not the cookie-cutter perfection some authors like to write.

Daisey Red Queen (Red Queen, #1) by Victoria Aveyard

I liked both stories well enough, but definitely enjoyed Red Queen better. Although there was plenty of darkness and deceit in both stories, I reacted more negatively to the characters in The Young Elites. I just could not convince myself to like or wish real success on any of them. On the other hand, although I knew I shouldn't trust the characters in Red Queen, I wanted things to work, and the betrayal was much more heartwrenching for me as a reader.

Alyson Stone (alysonserenastone) | 300 comments Tough one to pick! I really liked them both, but one was just a little bit better than the other.

I'm going with Red Queen (Red Queen, #1) by Victoria Aveyard
