Like I previously stated, most of Revolution's words are basic and easily understood, sans adjectives. For some reason authors go CRAY-ZAY with adjectives that few people know. Or at least some that I'm not aware of. Other than that:
Askew: to one side; out of line; in a crooked position.
"... It's a whole city, a thousand thin paths, kilometers and kilometers of housewives standing outside askew miniature-sized houses..." (5)
An askew hat.
Drab: Lacking brightness, dingy or shabby.
"They looked drab and disarranged beside their cop counterparts in fine suits and unhappy helmets..." (23)
The entrance of a house that looks drab.
Coterie: a group of people who associate closely, clique.
"He had a coterie of friends since childhood, who were protective, fearful for him." (23)
There is an eccentric coterie beyond the sunflowers.
