Meh, read this one because everyone was saying that it was better then the first. Although that may be true, I still think that this book was lacking. Especially in the character department... I wish the plot was the same but with better, more likable and less stereotypical characters.

This sequel to Monument 14 isn't as predictable as you'd think. It reaches a satisfying conclusion - but there's just no market for only sequels these days. While there's no cliffhanger ending, there will be another book.

It was a little fast paced, and very irritating with the change in text. A tad daring at times. But it was a good continuation of Monument 14 in retrospect. But are they truly the Monument 14 anymore?

  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

what an emotional rollercoaster.
I spent most of this book just sure I couldn't keep reading. I kept having to pause and take breathers,it was just sooo tough

but keep going, break through

the lovely story is so worth it.

I hope we get at least one more....

A good trilogy.

This one is pretty short. A little bit of the same (with regards to the first book) but with a few new twists added in. It seemed to wrap up pretty nicely; I don't think a 3rd book is really necessary.

I would say somewhere between 3.75 & 4 stars.

It took me a while to get into this one. Like most YA trilogies, the second book always seems to suffer a bit.

I did like the alternating POVs, and the cliffhanger had me put the third book on hold so I can see what happens.

The way Emmy Laybourne wrote it was amazing. I liked the 'day' part from Dean and 'miles' from Alex. The story was cute. Dean and Astrid are a great couple. Alex and Sahalia is a maybe, and I think that would be great. I hated when Payton appeared, but it had to be there.

Apart from the romance bits which I'm not sure how much you have to take seriously because well ... Seriously? No no no.
Anyway, the rest was pure tension, heart pounding action and a desire to find out what happens next.
