Dystopian Novel 'The Young Elites' By Marie Lu

The setting of the book begins at a summer camp in Prescott, Arizona called Box Canyon Boys Camp. This setting is important and adds meaning to the story because if it did not take place at the summer camp none of the main characters would have met each other, and the book would take place somewhere else.

All of the character are those who you would not want to talk to and people who you would usually typically drive past. The story initially focuses

The setting takes place by a creek that the townspeople know as the Woman Hollering Creek. It's a stream of water that flows behind the main character, Cleofilas’ house. The

The time period in the story really doesn’t affect my understanding of the novel because it is explained really well how the time period works and what goes on everyday also how life is so the time period doesn’t alter the perceptive at all. The setting enhances the story because it is so different from real life and it takes you into a sort of destroyed fantasy world. Since it is dystopian it gives off a certain mood, like if it were to be a happy place it would give a happy mood but if the mood is dark and eery it will give off a more harsh perspective on the book. The setting is very important in this story because it is a dystopian story not based on reality and the setting also helps to create moods, how characters behave and imagery so it makes it easier for the audience or people to imagine what is going on so they can get a better grasp on the

There are a lot of characters, but i’m going to only name three, Guy Montag, his job is a firefighter who burns books but mentally likes books, he is a protagonist, and a person who changes society. Clarrise, she was spotted by Montag at night. Clarisse likes to talk, and is always in a good mood. She was always considered “ the crazy girl “. Clarisse enjoyed nature, but one night she was hit by a car and died. The third character is Faber, Faber is an old college professor. Faber acts different and knows a lot about books that are banned. Faber has been asked about certain books and paragraphs. Faber was always thought as an old man

It was about the time 2002 and I can tell that buy what the said and how the house looks. The setting is really scary then it was in any other scary books I read. If you want to find out any more of the settings read the book.

The Story is set in a small town in Maine, one based on a town Stephen King himself briefly lived in. The town is small but rich with history, history that Jud Crandall (neighbor and good friend of the Creeds) keeps alive. This sense of history is vital to the story and the mood.

The Young Elites by Marie Lu contains the five main elements of a plot line. To start off, the song “What a Catch, Donnie” by Fall Out Boy is an excellent way to summarize the exposition. The lyrics explain “I got troubled thoughts/ and the self esteem to match”, which corresponds with Adelina’s life. Adelina is full of dark thoughts, and her dad is constantly mean to her, trying to provoke her. She is a Malfetto, a survivor of the plague. All Malfetto have a mark. Adelina has a terrible scar down her face, reminding her she is different. The lines “You’ll never catch us/ So just let me be” show Adelina just wants her father to leave her alone. She thinks if he would stop being mean to her, then her dark thoughts would also stop.

Over the summer I enjoyed reading a few great books, including a new favorite, The Young Elites by Marie Lu. This is a fantasy book following the lives of a small group of blood fever survivors who live in Kenettra, The Sealands.This is a made up world and Kenettra is similar to ancient Venice, Italy. The main character, Adelina Amouteru who, after mother dying, her whole life has been shunned and abused by her father for being a malfetto, or an abomination, leaving the only person truly there for her to be her younger sister. To make matters worse, she is left obvious markings from the blood fever, including all her hair turning silver and losing her left eye. This causes her to be unwanted by suitors and her father to lose business.

I thought it was going to be in the Genocide time. It mainly talked about Emma and her life after Genocide. I really liked the book,its content, but I'm not a hundred percent

To Kill a Mockingbird is set in Maycomb County, Alabama in the 1930s. There is a myriad of families in this small county. Blacks, farmers, businessmen, and strong single women all call Maycomb County home. The book is told from the point of view of a little girl named Jean Louise Finch, or as many of the townspeople call her, Scout. Her father, whom they call Atticus, raises her with her brother Jem. A majority of the book deals with the trial of Tom Robinson, during which Scout begins to understand that not everybody is as fair as Atticus, raised Jem and her to be.

Typically, the story does not take place anywhere specific. Rather, the action will happen in a very generic place such as the woods. They are the stories of your childhood.
