Review
OMG!!!! After reading this book I wanted to KILL Malorie Blackman for what she did. But, being the awesome person that I am, I'm not going to tell you bookies why because I hate it when people SPOIL me AGAINST my will. I love her writing it just made me feel like the one of the characters in the story. (I used one of because she writes in both Sephy's and Callum's perspective, I loved that she did that) Go READ IT like NOOOOWWW!!!
Summary
It's the Black/White controversy in reverse, The whites are slaves and the blacks are on top but, instead of saying black and white she used Nought = White and Cross = Black. Thus the title Noughts and Crosses. It's a tragic love story about how Sephy a Cross and Callum a Nought find love and deal with loses.
Profiles
Sephy- a.k.a. Persephone (like the greek godess Persephone daughter of Demeter and wife to Hades #pjo #HoO #BoO #I'minthefandom), quirky, short sighted (as in thinking skills not her actual sight), rich, 14 (well in the beginning of the book), comes from a messed up home and LOVES CALLUM
Callum- poor, has mentally unstable siblings, Nought, family drama, serious, smart, curious, loves to learn, super sweet and most importantly LOVES SEPHY
There are huge plot twist throughout the entire book that I will allow you to enjoy finding out about through, I cried at the ending.
