jasmyn9 's review for:
Less Than Perfect
by Kelly Jensen
One of my favorite Young Adult genres is a good science fiction dystopian. So when I come across a romance that mixes that up in the storyline I get really excited. Less Than Perfect takes a different approach to the aliens than I had seen in the past so it was a very exciting read in that respect. The story was fast paced and seemed to pack a whole lot into a novella. The action very rarely stopped, but it didn't feel like it was overly rushed.
The character of Mikayla was amazing. She had a box of end of the world books she tried to take with her everywhere, which sounds like something I would try to do at the end of the world. Reg was a bit of a mystery throughout the whole story. Even at the end I didn't really have a feel for who he was, and I really wanted to know him better. The way they learned about each other and fell in love was sweet, but Mikayla seemed far more open than he did - partly because it was told from her perspective.
I haven't found many dytopian style books that are primarily a romance, and this one did a great job combining the two elements without losing either one along the way.
