Stars – 3.5/5


About the Author – Cecelia Ahern was born and grew up in Dublin. She is now published in nearly fifty countries and has sold over twenty-five million copies of her novels worldwide. Two of her books have been adapted as films and she has created several TV series.


Synopsis – 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 in which 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. 


About The Book – So this was my 1st Young Adult – Dystopian Novel. After I finished reading it, I had a mixed feeling about this book. In many parts, it felt lame to even continue reading it as the Plot and Twists seems to be too obvious and at some parts, it kept my interest to keep going on. The story starts well but it always felt like you know what’s gonna happen next. The story seemed quite predictable until the mystery of ‘Video Tape’ arrived. The love triangle between the both of the sisters and Art felt too idiotic and didn’t even had an elaborate explanation. In 1 chapter, Celestine sees her sister cheating and in next, there is no story about how she felt and what happened to it until after 4-5 chapters. Although later onwards the story took a good pace and explained a lot of past events, opening many more plots and story for the next book ‘Perfect.’

If you have read Divergent or The Hunger Games, you’ll easily get bored as the story feels all the same – The underdog girl, trapped in a wrong but Ethically right situation, giving rise to a Revolution making her the Heroine and later bringing down the bad organisation with flying colours.

Will be reading ‘Perfect’ soon.


Verdict – Read if you are a Cecelia fan otherwise just a Cliched Dystopian novel.
