My only complaint is that I wish this would have been a trilogy.
8th of October? I can't wait that long. I won't be able to Breathe much longer if it doesn't come out soon. Haha not funny. I can't wait I loved it so much and Resist is going to be much better.
I thought the first book had potential but lacked character development. This book stills lacks character development but the plot is absurd. Not enough is explained, the action doesn't flow well from one scene to the other, and some parts don't make sense. I had way too many questions at the end. The story starts where Breathe (book 1) left off with Quinn, Bea, and Alina being tossed out of the pod and looking for Sequoia, another oasis to get oxygen. Or is it? Jazz, Bea, and Quinn are fleeing
Such an amazing sequel and ending to the series, unexpected and thrilling this duet is seriously special and well worth reading if you like the dystopian genre and a nice, thick plot!
*I won a copy of this book through the Goodreads First Reads program. I really wanted to like this book. I really did. Especially after I disliked the first book in the duo logy. I especially wanted to like it because the premise intrigued me. It's a dystopian novel set in a world where most people are reduced to living inside a pod, which produces its air artificially since humans have polluted the world's water system and destroyed all its trees. It's about evil governments, rebellions and a f...
This was one the most interesting books I have ever read. I loved how the author made the story tense, but not lover tense, because I HATE that. My dad and I are big into conserving energy and natural resources, and this book was a whole new thing for us. The whole part about having no air whatsoever was an interesting concept, and how some people wanted to keep it that way, while others wanted to save the planet. I was very glad that my prediction that Abel was working for the Ministry was fals...
in a society built on lies, not everyone can survive the truth..i REALLY enjoyed this book more than i did the first one but i can say i love the series equallyThis book was the squeal and final book in the breathe series, it was gripping, shocking for sure, and had me more than the first book at times. New characters make an appearance in this book we don't get 3 different perspectives but now 4 different ones in this book we have Bea, Quinn, Alina and now Ronan. I will have to say the charact
Can all dystopians be duologies please?(!)
Ik heb enorm genoten van het herlezen van Breathe en Resist. Deze duologie weet je van begin tot eind op het puntje van je stoel te houden en onderscheidt zich door haar enorm originele world building en een goed uitgewerkte diversiteit aan karakters. Helaas vond ik het einde iets te kort door de bocht en had ik graag wat extra achtergrondinformatie gelezen over deze interessante toekomstvisie. Desondanks wil ik deze boeken enorm graag aanraden, omdat het verhaal super spannend is en het je zeke...
A disappointing conclusion to a less than promising ending.
Reviews and more at The Sirenic CodexResist did nothing to pull me in emotionally.I thought I may as well start this review with brutal honesty. I can tiptoe around it, but this is by far the biggest issue of Resist. I wasn't a fan of Breathe, but I read a review that spoke so highly of Resist that I convinced myself that it deserved another chance. So, here we are.The characters were barely distinguishable to me. Alina was fierce, Bea was strong, Quinn was umm, mature? Ronan was the only one I
After reading this, THANK YOU GOD FOR OXYGEN!The sequel and I believe also the last book in this series -don't quote me on that- was more gripping, shocking for sure, and had me more than the first book. No spoilers of course but there was more things going on in this and we get to see that in many point of views.First thing comes in mind about this was shocking. About maybe 24%, 11 chapters in, I literally jumped out of my bed and started screaming. I did not see that coming. I can't even... I
Amazing book better than breathe
It was incredible and left the story with an ending that I could say yes I’ve read this book. It answered so many questions I had when reading the first book and I thought the storyline was so strong and an amazing book by Sarah.
See more reviews at YA Midnight Reads3.5 starsThank you Bloomsbury Australia for sending me this copy. No compensation was given or taken to alter this review. I just run. I run as fast as my lungs and legs will carry me. The voice comes at me again. It's Silas. "Run, Alina! ALINA!"Even though Resist was not as stunning as Crossan's first instalment, Breathe, Resist was still a thoroughly enjoyable book compact with action, survival and persistence. I just was hoping for a little more from every...
Full review here: (http://wordsontheshelf.blogspot.co.uk...)Oh where to start with this beautiful, beautiful heart breaking book. Well I knew I would love this book, after book 1 (Breathe) which I adored to no end, I had very high expectations. Not only were those met, but they were exceeded. My mind was blown by the imagination and skill that Sarah must have put in, in order to create such a action packed, believable, solid plot that is like spaghetti twisted together on a plate... complicated
Character development is so good it’s practically insane! The ending semi-killed me though.
I really, really want this. It's gonna be amazing.
At least one mystery was solved. (view spoiler)[ Abel was alive and actually working for Sequoia. It wasn't really that exciting. (hide spoiler)] Which was the only question that was answered. I was especially disappointed that the big questions I had about The Switch went unanswered. Resist continued following a formulaic dystopian plot, which bothered me. There were no surprises, really. (view spoiler)[ The big "reveal" about what they were doing at Sequoia--breeding people / experimenting--a...
Well I actually give it 4.5 stars.WowFirst of all, I’ve been reading some reviews and I’m seeing people saying don’t bother reading it. Well I TOTALLY disagree. It’s the first book in a long time that I’ve really enjoyed.Spoilers*I loved it. I am devastated, though, that Alina died. I don’t understand why it was she had to die, since she was a crucial part of the story. She was my favourite character in the series. After reading some stuff, it made me realise that there was a lot of of questions...
