The Young Elites by Marie Lu

The Young Elites (Young Elites, #1)

by Marie Lu

Adelina Amouteru is a survivor of the blood plague: marked by a jagged scar, snow-white hair and lashes. Cast out by her family, Adelina has finally found a place to belong within the secret society of Young Elites. To some, the Elites are heroes, here to save innocents in desperate situations. But to the Inquisition Axis, the white-robed soldiers of Kenettra, they are monsters with demonic powers who must be brought to justice. As Adelina learns more about this perilous world where politics and magic clash, she soon realizes that her own powers may be in danger of bringing on an era of panic such as the world has never seen.

I still don't even know.

Re: review. After sitting on this for a couple days, I can say that I loved and hated Adelina, which made it very complicated for me to get behind parts of this book.
