"Momentum," she repeats. "You can't just stand there if you want something to fly. You have to run."

wow,I don't think I've read such a sad, hopeless painful book in a very very very long time.

This one took all my willpower to finish. At some point, I want a win in the corner for the good guys..
I want grown men (the ones that are NOT going to die at 25) to want more from a young girl than just her body.
I want less drugs shoved, morphed and forced into people
I want less taken, more given. And love and affection.

and this...ugh, was....painful. and just left me feeling empty.

the line that broke me the most:
"If only we could be together, maybe we'd have an answer between us."

God, if only..... ( )

“Because even if the lie is beautiful, the truth is what you face in the end.”

“I've done it all before, I tell myself, and I can do it again. Trust is the strongest weapon.”

“...maybe hope isn't such a bad thing. Maybe it's what keeps us together.” ( )

A lot more interesting than the first book, but the main character is so bland. I even forget her name and I can't even visualize what she looks like. ( )

Oh, this book. This was another kick in the teeth, but it was so eye opening. We went from the first book where all harshness was outside (if it wasn't the terrible mystery-threat going on in the basement) to the up close and personal view of what it is like to live in this world when you aren't being controlled, captured and cared for.

It's rough and tumble. It's amazing. The love story still shines through, along with the complex emotions the main character has for everyone she's with, she leaves behind, she finds herself with. I am very much looking forward to seeing how this story comes together for an ending. ( )
