Annie is
heading to college on a mission. The first part of her mission was to
get away from her super over-protective father and the next missions ...
well ... they're on the list. Annie hasn't really experienced life
because her father has kept her sheltered for too many years. While
there is a good reason for him to be playing the overbearing father,
Annie needs some breathing room and she's determined to get it many
miles away in college.
The
List is the first book I've read by Kate L. Mary but I've been
interested in her stuff before ... I've just never had the opportunity
to read one. When this one popped up, I knew I needed to jump on it and
I'm glad that I did. The author has a way with characters that really
makes you either love or hate them. There really isn't any in-between.
I
don't really have anything to say other than the book does jump around a
little bit ... there were parts where you're getting into the groove of
the situation and then all the sudden it would change and something
else was going on. It was almost as if things had just been edited out,
which is why I gave it four stars instead of five. This was easily a
five star book for me if it weren't for those weird changes.
And holy sexual-frustration, Batman. I don't even have dude junk and I had some massive blue-balls from this one. There is a bit of a love triangle going on within these pages and while I enjoyed the suspense of what might or might not happen with which piece of man-candy, I did just want her to pick. Don't take that the wrong way ... it wasn't because the chase or whatever was boring ... it wasn't. I'm just impatient as hell and I wanted to know which one she was going to pick. But, I will tell you this ... she picked the right one ... the one I wanted her to pick. So I had a little celebratory dance in my head and maybe an eye-roll because of the intense suspense that I had to be put through.
This is a great book if you're wanting something deep but not too deep or maybe a sweet little romance to break up your dystopian/sci-fi habit. I know I'll be reading this one again ... I just really loved the characters and I hope it's not the last we see of them. Oh! And I'm super interested to see what the
rest of the series has in store for me ... I'll definitely be picking
them up when they come out.
* I received this book in exchange for an honest review *
