Rachel's Rating:
This was a really great book to read. I enjoyed following Nicholas on the road to discovering himself. I can't wait to see how he handles everything in the next installment. In my opinion this book is fine for a younger YA group to read as well as enjoyable for adults also.
The book was very suspenseful on what Nicholas was and how he ended up on the run. The book alternates between the past and present giving some hints as to why they are always moving. The only reason that I gave it 4 stars as opposed to 5 was because at times I was frustrated with not knowing more about what he was. However this was a minor issue and it certainly did not stop me from devouring the story.
The characters in the story were very lively, likeable and well rounded. I don't feel like the author could have done any better writing them. The jealosy and competiveness found in the high school sounds accurate as well as the realtionships and dialogues between the characters. Nicholas faced not only an insecure bully and teammate in his school but also someone wants him dead.
The romance that finds Nicholas was well written and executed and his new best friend was good for some laughs. The romance was not the main focus of the story it just added to it.
I found the entire plot line was unique and certainly entertaining. I hope the author continues to keep us on our toes with this series and if he chooses to write other books I will be checking those out too. I will be waiting for this book to release come October.
