A review by dlberglund
Atlantia by Ally Condie

3.0

After the Divide, people had chosen or sacrificed themselves to stay in the Above, breathing the polluted air and living lives with shortened lifespans. Or, they lived in the Below, a big water-proof hamster habitat under the water.
Parts of the books were musical and captivating, and parts were choppy and rough. I never quite understood parts of the culture, and some of the characters didn't come fully formed.
Interesting, and probably better than her previous trilogy, but still not actually great literature.
