Crossed (SPOILERS!)

[kait]

It's been almost two months since the release of Crossed! Have you read it yet? Let's discuss!

Overall, I really liked it but thought the pace was kind of slow at certain points. Here's a breakdown:

Things I loved:
* Getting away from The Society. Loved the change of scenery and backstory about what's happening to the Abherrations.
* Vick and Indie! It's great to have secondary characters with more depth!
* Xander is part of The Rising and Ky isn't! Didn't see that coming!
* The Farmers, knowing that there's another society that's been out there for ages!
* Why is The Society storing genetic samples in the mountains?!
* Everyone has big secrets except Cassia, it seems! I'm sure all hell will break loose in the next book and I look forward to it!

Things that bugged me:
* SO MANY UNANSWERED QUESTIONS! I know this is expect for the second book in a trilogy, but I'm impatient!
* The Enemy-- who is it and why do they want to destroy the "villagers" aka Abherrations in the Outer Provinces so badly?!
* The Rising-- I don't trust those guys!
* The alternating narrative. Both characters kind of sounded the same to me!

What did you think of the book?!

Sorry guys! I thought the title stating that the post was about Crossed would be enough of a spoiler warning! I'll add it in now!

I really enjoyed it, I think it was better than the first one actually since we start finding out backstories. I'm looking forward to the next book

I just finished Crossed! So amazing but a little disappointed at the end, left me wanting MORE! xD
Guess that's a good thing though xD

Thank you!

It should have been, but I was still silly enough to click on it! Ehh, curiosity killed the cat!

I reallllllllllllly want to know WHO THE HECK the "Enemy" is!!! Is each side lying and saying that there's an enemy, when there's really not? Is one side the "Enemy" and one side's not? What if the "enemy" were a different country? That would be something cool that hasn't really been discussed in the sort of one-track/one country/one society type of feel most dystopic novels have lately.

I liked it and can't wait till the next one but i always like xander better than ky... i just think he was more reliable.. cassia never noticed ky until the card so if that didn't happen would they be where they are now?

[aagstar555]

I was so prepared to ship Vick and Indie... and then we find out Vick's story... and then he dies
but anyway
Ky is such a sweetheart!!! I love him!!! But I'm super-hoping Xander's "little" secret changes Cassia's mind, because, frankly, I want her to be with him.
But yeah. That secret? And then how Indie feels? It's really surprising. And makes me just that more excited for Reached!
