  1. Recently I was looking up the top ten best series. This was number 7 and something good to read.. I wasn't exactly sure about it at first so I didn't decide to read it. Once I looked more about it, I realized it wasn't just a book about all these people looking pretty or ugly, it was more about people coming together and doing what they feel is right. These people were also rebels so I also thought, 'who doesn't like a good book about rebels hopefully taking over?!' I think it overall was a great book but a little weird at some points.
