Flawed

Product Information

For me at over a quarter of the book read, I kind of feel something of note needed to have happened, but I was so disconnected from the story, and so little had been absorbed I can't even remember the names of the main characters. What I liked particularly was that the protagonist - Celestine North had to experience the difference between being "perfect" and "flawed" in a dystopian society, where it is a MUST to follow all rules and social norms.

The book unfolds the story of a high school teenager who is perfect in every possible way, but soon her perfection is challenged between right logic and wrong rules and little did miss perfect knew that her dreams would get shattered with her gesture of humanity. Celestine ist eine wunderbare Persönlichkeit, die immer, wenns drauf ankam, bewies, dass sie ihr Herz am rechten Fleck trug. Mostra como coexistir pacificamente em sociedade preservando a nossa individualidade pode significar, nalguns casos, almejar a paz com gregos e troianos!My characters push through and as a result evolve, become stronger and better equipped for the next challenge that life brings. Eine völlig neuartige, erfrischende Story mit einzigartig liebenswerten Figuren und einem sehr angenehmen Stil machen das Buch zu einem Highlight und ich komme nicht umhin zu sagen, dass Flawed definitiv zu meinen Jahres-Tops 2016 gehört. There is one scene, about 1/3 through the book, that had me quite literally shaking in fear, anger and repulsion. But again, I do want to put a trigger warning on it, as it's not something I expected and I can see it potentially being upsetting to some readers. Cecelia understands romance to the depth and has a very creative mind when creating romantic friction.

Die Autorin trifft hier eine sehr ausgewogene Mischung zwischen gefühlvolle Beschreibungen, rasante Passagen und interessant verpackten Informationen und Erklärungen. Maybe I've read too many YA books and also aged out of them because I just found the writing to be subpar and juvenile as well as the whole premise of the book to be unoriginal. The family dynamics were also really interesting to read and watch evolve and I kind of love the fact that, despite there being a romance, it definitely took the back burner to the action and questions the story bought up. The rebels have grabbed onto Celestine's story and are using her as a sort of figurehead for their movement. Pro-Flawed groups paint her as a symbol of hope and defiance, while anti-Flawed groups deem her a perfect poster girl for the system.This novel too was highly appreciated by the readers but it was not able to reach the heights of her debut novel. Wir lernen schon früh alle wichtigen Personen kennen und können uns direkt unsere Meinung über genau diese bilden.

Born in Dublin, Ahern is now published in nearly fifty countries, and has sold over 25 million copies of her novels worldwide. Author Ceceila Ahern does a brilliant job of getting down to the meat of feelings and trauma and examining how Celestine has had her former life ripped away from her in a split second.
