Add it to Goodreads
Description (from Goodreads)
The sequel—and conclusion—to Sarah Crossan's Breathe. Three teen outlaws must survive on their own in a world without air, exiled outside the glass dome that protects what's left of human civilization. Gripping action, provocative ideas, and shocking revelations in a dystopian novel that fans of Patrick Ness and Veronica Roth will devour.
Bea, Alina, and Quinn are on the run. They started a rebellion and were thrown out of the pod, the only place where there's enough oxygen to breathe. Bea has lost her family. Alina has lost her home. And Quinn has lost his privileged life. Can they survive in the perilous Outlands? Can they finish the revolution they began? Especially when a young operative from the pod's Special Forces is sent after them. Their only chance is to stand together, even when terrible circumstances force them apart. When the future of human society is in danger, these four teens must decide where their allegiances lie. Sarah Crossan has created a dangerous, and shattered society in this wrenching, thought-provoking, and unforgettable post-apocalyptic novel.
Why I want to read it
I was immediately sucked into Breathe, the first book in this series. I found a world without trees and plant life an incredibly original story plot. Quinn, Bea and Alina were all great characters and I felt their pain from living in the barren world. One book was definitely not enough, I need to know what happens next right now! But alas it doesn't get released until October so the torture of waiting will have to continue.

(My Review)
I was kind of so-so on BREATHE, but I'm invested enough in the series now to want to read on. Great choice this week, Monique! :)

DeleteIt's such a gorgeous cover. The Breathe series is one that I would want to get in hardcover just so I can look at them.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Kaitlin. I really like that lone poppy growing up through the arid, cracked earth. Just a slight change from Breathe but shows that things are changing. Thanks for stopping by :-)
