Back at the Dagger Society's headquarters, Adelina overhears Spider telling Enzo about his suspicions of her. She reflects on what Spider said, that they were only good to her because they needed her. Taken over by her feelings, she decides to tell Teren everything about the Daggers (pages 241-247). At the Inquisition Tower, prepared to betray the Daggers, she decides not to and uses illusions to trick the inquisitors. Adelina finds her sister Violetta, and frees her. During their escape, Violetta reveals her powers of taking others' powers away. On the streets, they bump into Spider. He accuses her of treason and began wounding her. In her moment of rage, Adelina accidentally kills him (pages 264-273). Suddenly, inquisitors start killing Elites all over the city. After a while, Teren prepares to slaughter Raffaele in public. Enzo duels with Teren, and, in the confusion, Adelina attacks Enzo. Teren kills him, and the Daggers flee (page 324). At headquarters, the remaining Daggers (Windwalker, Star Thief and Raffaele) question Adelina. She tells tells them everything, including the death of Spider (pages 329-330). Raffaele, the new leader of the Daggers, tell Adelina that she can stay with Violetta for the night, but in the morning they must leave (page 335).
Violetta's power symbolizes unexpectedness in the book. Throughout The Young Elites, many events unravel after one another, revealing the plot of multiple unexpected happenings. This also represents Adelina's life, because from the start, she has never expected anyone to understand her, to care for her. She got accepted into the Dagger Society, and after that, she did many unexpected things herself.
I think because The Young Elites contain so many unexpected events, it captures readers' attention. It truly is a useful and effective way to keep readers reading. It's a great book for people who like reading teen fantasy, and everything about it is amazing - the cover, the characters, the story. I would definitely recommend it to my friends to read.
The Young Elites seems to be captivating and descriptive novel filled with symbolism and other literary devices. I personally enjoy reading fantasy and will consider reading this novel.
