I loved this book! I quickly fell in love with the characters when I started this one; Perry and Aria were developed so well! I really appreciated that the perspective switched back and forth between the two so the reader can really understand their actions and thoughts. This was a story that would have suffered if only told through Aria's eyes.

I know this book is often categorized as dystopian...I am not sure that really fits. It is definitely post-apocalypse, but missing most of the dystopian elements. This book feels more futuristic with a fantasy twist. Special powers and high tech gadgets abound in this story. I liked the characters and I really appreciate the fact that the author introduced us to Roar and set readers up for a book involving Roar and Liv as the main characters. Enjoyed the book, but didn't completely blow me away.

This was such a fantastic find! It was the perect book is every way. I like sci-fi, but sometimes I find that some sci-fi is a little too "out there" for my taste. This book was not. It was perfect with everything that I love. I just kept saying to myself, "I'm loving this book!" It's beautifully written, with unforgettable characters that pulled me under from the beginning. LOVED it!

OK, I officially love Perry. While I still maintain that this was a more mature ya novel, it was a tiny bit refreshing to have characters get to that level since there's usually so much tension! I'm a little nervous for what will unfold in the second book and I am frustrated already that #3 won't be released for a year.

Oh swoon.
Re-read Jan. 2013. I just freaking love this book and the love story. It's not forced, it's not that "forces they don't understand pulling them together" crap YA novels often fall into. ...more
