Description:
Paivi Anderson has it
all - friends, a spot on the varsity basketball team, wonderful parents,
and quite possibly, her first boyfriend. It was everything a freshman
in high school could ask for. Her perfect life begins to crumble when
she discovers her name on a list distributed by a power-hungry
presidential candidate. How could anyone think of Paivi as an Enemy of
the State? Could it be because of her special powers? No one was
supposed to know about them, but the mysterious messages in her tater
tots say otherwise. In Into the Shadows, Paivi quickly learns who her
friends are and is forced into a reality she didn’t see coming.
Review:
This
was a surprisingly good read. It started out rather slow for me, I was
very skeptic. The maincharacter Paivi just seemed like a little bitchy
girl. But the characters grew during the book. I assume it is played out
in the near future or maybe in our time. It's a bit hard to tell,
because this information was not given during the story. But that leaves
space for imagination. I personally decided for me it is a near future
that didn't go so well. The story is like a whole Nazi experience all over. There are a few people with special abilities such as mind reading, visions or similar. And one power hungry dude decides to mess with those people. He takes away their rights, he limits them, he humiliates them in public by making them wear glowing EOS symbols and marking their houses with them.
I will surely read the second book, hoping the characters will develop more.
4,5 stars from me because of the slow start.
