I have not read a novel by Marie Lu and hope that this will be the first. Because I love that there is Sign language in this and, not a lot of books have an mute or deaf characters in them. I am desperately hoping for the chance to read this book. The writing looks and reads exceptionally. The story looks like it's going to be really great. and the colors of the cover and the artwork is very appealing to the eye and soothing to the brain.
