I read this series over and over in middle school and just the nostalgia alone is enough for me to give the series 4 stars. Absolutely loved Maxon and America and they will forever be one of my all-time favorite couples. These were the heart of YA dystopian fiction in their heyday and I recommend this trilogy for young teens who are still searching for genres they like.
That being said, I know if I were to reread I could find many new flaws to scrutinize, but the selection series already has a special place in my heart and I refuse to compromise it! 🥹

“America, my love, you are sunlight falling through trees. You are laughter that breaks through sadness. You are the breeze on a too-war day. You are clarity in the midst of confusion.
You are not the world, but you are everything that makes the world good. Without you, my life would still exist, but that's all it would manage to do.
You said that to get things right one of us would have to take a leap of faith. I think I've discovered the canyon that must be leaped, and I hope to find you waiting for me on the other side.
I love you, America.
Yours forever,
Maxon”

“Maxon, some of those marks are on your back so they wouldn’t be on mine, and I love you for them.â€�
He stopped breathing for a second. “What did you say?�
I smiled. “I love you.�
“One more time, please? I just—�
I took his face in both of my hands. “Maxon Schreave, I love you. I love you.�
“And I love you, America Singer. With all that I am, I love you.”
