I was nervous about reading this book. The Darkest Minds was so good that I was concerned that the sequel wouldn’t be that good. For me it can go either way. And this went a good way. It was different enough to be exciting in its own right but at the same time followed nicely from The Darkest Minds.
The story
continues to follow Ruby as she struggles to adjust to the outside world and
her orange ability. She’s also dealing with the consequences of some of her actions
in the previous book. What’s great about this is the new characters that come
along. Jude is my favourite and I hold my breath every time he is anywhere near
anything dangerous. Vida is also high on my list of fave characters, she’s got
some great lines.
We also get
to see quite a bit more of the Children’s League and Liam’s brother Cole. It
took me a while to make my mind up about Cole, but I reached a decision in the
end.
An excellent
book, the series continues to keep me guessing.
