![]() ![]() But I wonder if in a year (or more) from now, I will remember any of the good. I'll land on 3.5 stars for this one and I'm curious if I'll still be interested in book #3 when it comes out in 2014 (wtf!) If it was out already, I would read it. Building false drama by making her characters become suddenly dumb when in the rest of the book, they were mature beyond their years and saw past all the lies and BS. But then, at the very last minute, she devolved into the silly YA nonsense that makes me want to stop reading YA entirely. ![]() But always Lu brought them back together with logic and sound reason that made sense considering these two characters who she has built with solid heads on their shoulders, even despite their ages. I kept expecting them to get split apart - divided by two causes and too many lies. They are split apart, reunited, exposed to harsh truths about both sides and forced to pick their path knowing that nothing will be as they hoped/expected. From there, they are thrown into a plot to assassinate the new elector. The book starts out with Day and June fresh from their escape and on their way to Vegas, where they hope to find help in the Patriot rebels. There was more detail, more action, more intrigue. The book was very good up until that point. ![]() I was on the verge of giving it 4, bordering on 4.5 stars and then it took a turn that left me groaning with annoyance. ![]()
