Lost Stars by Claudia Gray
5.0
At first I wasn't expecting to like this...
But it grew on me. The love story is the main point but ultimately the divide between loyalty and love or duty is the main theme of this beautiful/tragic love story. In the beginning I didn't like Ciena but as I kept reading about her journey in the Empire I realize she is not much different from the Clone Troopers ideals either. It's at first the Empire mentality but than because it's military it becomes the loyalty and duty as a military officer. Also my favorite parts of the books are open endings. Leave to our interpretations.
