A good follow up to book one with a cliffhanger ending! Whoa. So many surprises in this one.

A solid book 2! I definitely recommend this series for middle age students. It keeps you guessing at every turn.

It was an interesting and well told story, with decent character development. My biggest complaint is the amount of stock given to the idea that DNA would determine how innately good one is at crime. So much is assigned to DNA (love for brownies, selfishness, etc). I can suspend disbelief about inexperienced, sheltered kids being able to escape police and spring people from prison, but don't try to sell me the idea that identical DNA results in identical people! Just look at twins! I thought the first book was very well done, but the second book was much more "out there" in terms of believeability.

Their whole sneaking around, breaking laws, and questioning their morals along the way was so enjoyable to me! And I loved the twist ending because I totally did not see it coming! I knew something had to go wrong before it ended, but I wasn't guessing it would be the betrayal that it was.
I'm still very bothered by how much Amber's goal weight is talked about. I have found absolutely no reason to glorify 13 year old years going on diets. The way she talks about her goal weight and the size of her clothes and obsessing over her food is absolutely disgusting for a child. If this book is aimed toward middle schoolers, in absolutely no way should be suggesting that this is a worry any child should be having. Being aware of your health is extremely different than being aware of your weight, and this book was not showing what a healthy mindset looks like.
