AnnaBnana's Reviews > Pandemonium

It took me a little time to get into this book - at first I found the format of switching back and forth between "now" and "then" disorienting. That said, about halfway through, I got totally hooked. It became really clear that we needed the "then" to understand how Lena's relationship with Raven, Tack, and the other Invalids developed. I really liked how both sections hit climaxes at the same time. It definitely kept the pages turning.

Now follows Lena as she is today, living in New York City, working undercover as a part of the resistance movement. Then tracks Lena after she is rescued in the wilds by a group of Invalids. They take her into their homestead where she begins to build new relationships, to heal, and to live a life so much different than what she and Alex had planned together.

The ending made me want to shout a big ol' UGH!!!! Of course, no doubt that will make for a super conclusion, which I will be looking forward to.
