I've read the series. It is one of the better YA dystopia series I've read. I did find the writing could have left a little more to the imaginarion when it came to the emotions of the characters, e.g. "his eyes fill.ed with tears" rather than "he was upset". I liked the series overall tho
I'd agree with you there on that. I noticed that the characters appeared a little stilted emotionally. The whole 'show rather than tell' wasn't applied in some areas.
My roommate reads mostly YA novels and just finished this. I don't read very many YA novels, and she gave this one to me to read because she thought I might like it. I haven't started it yet, but I put it next to the other one she told me to read, Divergent. I still am not really close to reading either of them, but I keep being told I should get to them.
Definitely make sure you finish the good books first though. These are more like 3 star fun reads in my view...
