Anyone read this? I just got it from the library, but still on the fence on whether I should pick it up or not.

There were aspects of the book that were standard, a monarchy that is overbearing, a group of rebels that want more, and a strict class system. These apsects made the book familiar when reading, but it is the characters that will keep you reading. A couple of them surprised me and weren't what I first thought they were, but then as I thought about them it made perfect sense.
For me a large part of the appeal of the book was Charlie. She had so much to hide and so much to protect. The relationship with her sister showed both parts.
I was ready for and dreading a love triangle, but am happy to say that it didn't go that way.
With the ending I wonder where things will go in this series. I almost expected the fight for right to go on longer.
