A Great Read submitted by ajstemp on June 27, 2018, 1:37pm I picked this one at random and was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. The culture and world the book takes place in are well-developed — from class hierarchies to athletics — and explore themes that resonate in the real-world as well. If you're looking for something that stands out in the YA fiction world, I'd recommend this.
