Review:

Meh. I kinda think Four ruins part of the book for me. I absolutely love Six, Marina, and Ella, so their points of view are great and interesting to read, but I can not relate to Four and his bad decisions. I am a little confused why they did not look for Sam because they know he’s in the building. I understand there is a crisis, but that is all Four had thought about the entire book. I like Eight, and his powers are pretty cool. I am sure that Four is Pittucus because of how many of the other people's legacies he has and him being the first main character. He also does seem to have a weird connection with the Mog leader, so that is another thing. I hope we learn more about the elders soon because that part of the book is very interesting. I am not a fan of so many aspects of this book, but the overall plot is pretty interesting.

Trigger Warnings:
profanity, war scenes, mild adult content, war scenes, mild torture and coercion with powers, multiple instances of bullying, and heavy making out

Synopsis From Book:

Until I met John Smith, Number Four, I'd been on the run alone, hiding and fighting to stay alive. Together we are much more powerful. But it could only last so long before we had to separate to find the others . . . I went to Spain to find Seven, and I found even more, including a tenth member of the Garde who escaped from Lorien alive. Ella is younger than the rest of us, but just as brave. Now we're looking for the others - including John. But so are they. I am Number Six. To finish what they started, they'll have to fight us first.
