It’s not that I haven’t found other books that I’ve loved or have made me feel things, it’s just that none of them have reached in and grabbed my very heart and soul like those special YA ones I’ve found. There’s something about certain YA books that really affects me. “Because dreamers always wake up and leave their monsters behind.”ĭo you guys ever just start reading a book and get so swept up that it consumes you until you’ve gobbled up every last word? Well that’s what happened to me these past few days as I’ve reread Never Fade and In the Afterlight. “And that we won’t just wake up?” I stared ahead at the road, the way the dust blowing in from the desert covered it with a faint golden sheen even as gray clouds began to gather over us. “Are you sure this isn’t a nightmare?” he asked quietly. But Cole has demons of his own, and one fatal mistake may be the spark that sets the world on fire. She turns to Cole, his older brother, to provide the intense training she knows she will need to take down Gray and the government. Meanwhile, reunited with Liam, the boy she would-and did-sacrifice everything for to keep alive, Ruby must face the painful repercussions of having tampered with his memories of her. But internal strife may destroy their only chance to free the "rehabilitation camps" housing thousands of other Psi kids. They are armed only with a volatile secret: proof of a government conspiracy to cover up the real cause of IAAN, the disease that has killed most of America's children and left Ruby and others like her with powers the government will kill to keep contained.

Only Ruby has any power over him, and just one slip could lead to Clancy wreaking havoc on their minds. With them is a prisoner: Clancy Gray, son of the president, and one of the few people Ruby has encountered with abilities like hers. Fractured by an unbearable loss, she and the kids who survived the government's attack on Los Angeles travel north to regroup. In the Afterlight ( The Darkest Minds #3)
