Series:
The Unwanteds volume 1.
Average Rating:
4.6 stars
Notes:
I thought this book was a lot like Harry Potter in that there was a school for magic. Alex is an unwanted. That means that he is supposedly not needed in his own family or city. So when he and is twin brother turned thirteen, they were sent to become one of three kinds of people: a wanted, a necessary, or an unwanted. That was the day when Alex was separated from his wanted brother for being an unwanted. But when he was sent to be eliminated, (killed) he found himself in the magical land of Arteme where he is free to lean the arts and magic.
Description:
In a society that purges thirteen-year-olds who are creative, identical twins Aaron and Alex are separated, one to attend University while the other, supposedly Eliminated, finds himself in a wondrous place where youths hone their abilities and learn magic.
