I have read a lot of YA, and I hate to make a terrible pun here, but I have become quite jaded. So, when I crossed this book, I didn't expect to love it.I was wrong.This is one of the most original concepts I have seen in a long while and I was not only pleasantly surprised by how good it is, but also impressed by the imagination of the author that stood out so clearly in her writing.The eye colour elements of this book are so interesting I never would have thought about the course of someone's future being decided by such a choice and that ended up being one my very favourite things about this story.For a YA book, this is really a complex story with many underlying themes. The main character is well planned and thought through carefully. She is a strong character with a lot of good qualities and it is easy to get to know her, which made me feel closer to the story.If you have not read this book yet you are doing yourself a disservice. Take a chance on it I am certain you will be happy you did.Recommended.
