Zoe is coming to terms with the life she thought she had and
the truth. She know she used to have strong romantic feelings for Noah. Now she
is just in a haze induced by medications forced on her by those closest to her.
Zoe is sure of one thing; her grandfather must be brought down. Can Zoe survive
life on the run and will her relationship with Noah become what it once was?
I really enjoyed this second installment of the perception
series. Strauss has outdone herself creating well developed characters that are
easy to relate to. Zoe continues to face
her greatest fears head on, as Noah continues to support her through this whole
ordeal. Zoe and Noah’s relationship seems stronger even though much of the past
only comes to Zoe in the form of dreams. There is so much in store for them.
This is a must read for any dystopian lover.

Oh wow. I didn't know the second book was already out. I'm so behind. I know from the first review you really enjoyed it and the book sounded interesting. This is just the same. I need to update my to read list and start on it as soon as I graduate.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a great series. I have had it on my TBR list for a while but haven't gotten around to it yet. Maybe I should bump it up the list!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your feature and review!
ReplyDeleteYour very welcome. Thank you for writing a great novel.
DeleteI love how you put the term for the word for "Volition". This sounds like a interesting book can't wait to check it out <3
ReplyDeleteThanks. I felt that the definition of the word really tells what the story is about. I hope you get a chance to read it.
