This book was definitely better than its precursor in terms of plot and character development. The romance in this book made my heart flutter and it took every ounce of self control for me not to spontaneously combust. The last few chapters paced rapidly with an interesting turn of events.

As Juliette is brought to Omega Point, a place for people like her and also the headquarters for rebel resistance, she learns to acknowledge and make fruitful use of her power.
She is no longer a mere weapon or tool for The Reestablishment to exploit. She is free to love Adam.
As war closes in, and new revelations about Adam's ability are revealed, Juliette has to make a decision between her heart and Adam.

I loved how the characters develop so much since the first book.
Juliette learns to control her power against her better judgement and is confronted with difficult and painful decisions to make. Her tempers gets the better of her more often that not and watch her try to come off clean from all of it was amazing.
I felt slightly annoyed by Adam and although I tried liking him, Warner kept coming and going: hotter and more charming than ever and my mind was an untangled mass of thoughts, all about Warner. He's undoubtedly the bad guy, but I couldn't help but drool over him despite my better judgement.
It was fascinating getting to know more about Kenji's abilities as he comes out funnier and wittier than usual. He saves everybody on countless occasions and without him, it would have been impossible for them to stay secure on dangerous missions.

The writing of the book had a really smooth flow, and the metaphors used were deep and beautiful. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the over exaggeration of Juliette's thoughts. Pages and pages were filled with her thoughts about even the most trivial of things and I had to get through them with a lot of patience. Other than that, the narration was enticing and plot twists were dropped like bombs amidst all the chaos.

A story brimming with rigorous action, swoon-worthy romance, unexpected plot twists and a final cliffhanger that will have you aching to read more.

I read Book 3 and it's my favourite in the series.. And I can't get myself to read the fourth book because I was given spoilers, but I'll definitely try it sometime :)
