Great Dystopian series. Was slow at first but after it picked up I was immersed in the world of Day and June. I love the way Marie Lu switches every chapter from June narrating to Day narrating. It is also easy to remember who is speaking because the text and color of the text is different in Day's perspective.

June is a super soldier and Day is from the streets. An unfortunate event brings them together with June hunting Day. I love the way Lu describes the difference in worlds they come from and I also like how it is set in the US in the not so far future.
