Born into an elite family in one of the Republic's wealthiest districts, fifteen-year-old June is a military prodigy. Born into the slums of the Republic's Lake Sector, fifteen-year-old Day is the country's most wanted criminal. But his motives are not as sinister as they often they seem. One day June's brother is murdered and Day becomes the prime suspect. Now, Day is in a race for his family's survival, while June tries desperately to avenge her brother's death. And the two uncover the truth of what has really brought them together and the lengths their country will go to in order to keep its secrets.

Great, but incorrectly depicts the characters’ physical appearances

I love this graphic novel (of course, it leaves out some parts of the original novel because... the book is too long to draw it all! My only really issue with this book is that, in Marie Lu’s original novel, it is clearly stated that Day’s dominant ethnicity is Mongolian. His non-dominant one is Caucasian. I don’t feel like he was shown as that, but others may disagree. Whatever. June’s hair, I believe, was darker and her skin was slightly darker, but otherwise I loved it.
