Rendition As Books The Young Elites (The Young Elites #1)
I am tired of being used, hurt, and cast aside.Adelina Amouteru is a survivor of the blood fever. A decade ago, the deadly illness swept through her nation. Most of the infected perished, while many of the children who survived were left with strange markings. Adelina’s black hair turned silver, her lashes went pale, and now she has only a jagged scar where her left eye once was. Her cruel father believes she is a malfetto, an abomination, ruining their family’s good name and standing in the way of their fortune. But some of the fever’s survivors are rumored to possess more than just scars—they are believed to have mysterious and powerful gifts, and though their identities remain secret, they have come to be called the Young Elites.
Teren Santoro works for the king. As Leader of the Inquisition Axis, it is his job to seek out the Young Elites, to destroy them before they destroy the nation. He believes the Young Elites to be dangerous and vengeful, but it’s Teren who may possess the darkest secret of all.
Enzo Valenciano is a member of the Dagger Society. This secret sect of Young Elites seeks out others like them before the Inquisition Axis can. But when the Daggers find Adelina, they discover someone with powers like they’ve never seen.
Adelina wants to believe Enzo is on her side, and that Teren is the true enemy. But the lives of these three will collide in unexpected ways, as each fights a very different and personal battle. But of one thing they are all certain: Adelina has abilities that shouldn’t belong in this world. A vengeful blackness in her heart. And a desire to destroy all who dare to cross her.
It is my turn to use. My turn to hurt.

I've never had such mixed feelings about a book before.Bloody hell. Pros: it's in the POV of an innocent victim-turned-antihero-turned-villian, which is something you just don't get enough of in the young adult realm (or at least that I've come across). And Marie Lu isn't afraid to take bold decisions here, oh yes.Cons: the writing. It feels lifeless, like a fellow classmate reading out a scene from your school literature book; you're hearing it, you're understanding it, but you're not reallyIt is my turn to use. My turn to hurt.My turn. Blurb: Adelina Amouteru is a survivor of the blood fever. A decade ago, the deadly illness swept through her nation.

HERE IS MY REVIEWCOME AND WATCH! SPOILER FREE AND THEN A DISCUSSION! THERE IS A WARNING BEFORE THE SPOILERS HAPPEN! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeJVI...
*Minor spoilers ahead*Okay, this book is literally nothing like the Legend series. This is so much more brutal, intriguing, heartbreaking and crazy. (i've been dying to do this)Prince Enzo Prince Zuko who is a malfetto a bender with the power of fire with the ability to control fire and is exiled from the palace and throne and is banished from the Fire Nation. He was obviously my favorite. Adelina is such a badass character, but sadly I couldn't really care for her. She had a rough childhood
Some hate us, think us outlaws to hang at the gallows.Some fear us, think demons to burn at the stake,Some worship us, think us children of the gods.But all know us. Story ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Did you ever wished that there was a story about a character so filled with darkness, that she easily could be the villain? Always mistreated, mistrusted and hated Adelina lives a horrible life with her father and sister. He hates her because she is a malfetto, a survivor of the blood fever left with a marking on her
I know who you really are. Who will ever want you, Adelina?My fury heightens. Everyone. They will cower at my feet, and I will make them bleed. Two words. Fuck, yeah!I don't even know how to describe this book. Maybe William Shakespeare's Mistborn? It is not without its flaws, but the love of a book, much like the love of a human, is completely chemistry-based, and for me, this book just clicked. Every so often, the planets align, and Khanh completely loves a book. It happens!This book has so
Adelina definitely surprised me. She's such a strong heroine. The kind we just love to have in our fantasy reads. Its pretty crazy, to say, how easily she and I clicked. Turns out, even though I dont believe myself to enjoy or, sometimes, want to hurt people, we have many things in common, such as fighting for what is dear to us, family and always trying our best.Enzo is the love-interest of Adelina. He is the rightful heir to the throne, but was banned, since he is a malfetto and malfettos are
