Adelina by Marie Lu
The Rose Society is the dark and fascinating sequel to The Young Elites. The trilogy tells the story of Adelina Amouteru. A girl who was betrayed and came back for revenge… The final book in The Young Elites Trilogy will be published in 2016.
Here are my favorite quotes from the book:
- “Your idea of nice is different from others'.” (p.12)
- “Save your fury for something greater.” (p.17)
- “You are powerful, mi Adelinetta, but you have all the charisma of a burnt potato pudding.” (p.82)
- “Why can’t I be the one to strike first, to hit so early and with such fury that my enemies cower before they can ever think of turning on me?” (p.97)
- "You were doing just fine. You could have run away. That was another option, you know, aside from murder. You should consider it sometime, because it works splendidly." (p.101)
- “We help whoever can get us the most gold.” (p.169)
- “I considered them my friends, until they weren’t.” (p.192)
- “A thief must be both be both patient and impatient to be good, must have
impeccable timing. Right?” (p.211)
