Flawed

Flawed by Cecelia Ahern

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Celestine North lives a perfect life. She’s a model daughter and sister, she’s well-liked by her classmates and teachers, and she’s dating the impossibly charming Art Crevan.

But then Celestine encounters a situation where she makes an instinctive decision. She breaks a rule and now faces life-changing repercussions. She could be imprisoned. She could be branded. She could be found flawed.

In her breathtaking young adult debut, bestselling author Cecelia Ahern depicts a society where perfection is paramount and flaws lead to punishment. And where one young woman decides to take a stand that could cost her everything.

This book is a difficult one to review. The concept is new and different. Basically, a country is striving to perfect it's gene pool, so anyone who makes a grave error of judgement is literally marked as flawed with a brand on their skin. Where the brand goes depends on what kind of error they made.

From the get go I knew that this Flawed system wasn't going to "last." You could see the ways that this would go wrong in so many ways. What happens isn't' what I was expecting at all. I loved the main character. Watching her learn and grow as she learns more about the system was interesting.

Cannot wait to read the next in this series!
