You know a book is good when you read 60% of it in one sitting.

This series is criminally underrated. I can't believe that something like this was published in the height of the young adult dystopian craze like The Hunger Games and The Maze Runner and yet never became super popular. It's gritty, it's gory, but it's sooooo good.
The plot (especially in Gone , Plague , and Light ) is incredibly fast-paced and intriguing. The characters are incredibly complex and flawed. And the themes of morality, sacrifice, acceptance, power, corruption---they were all subtly woven into the very fabric of the story.

For anyone looking for a sci-fi/dystopian read or a modern version of The Lord of the Flies (that is ten times more interesting and readable), try this series and I promise you that you won't be disappointed.

Also, can we get a round of applause for Quinn and Edilio quick? Congrats, guys. You single-handedly made the series four books longer because without you, everyone would literally be dead.
