Week 6 Review: Override

From Goodreads:
Zoe is free. She has escaped the enslavement of the Community, disconnected from the hardware that had controlled her every thought and emotion, and evaded capture by the Chancellor intent on killing her. She is finally free, but she is far from safe.

Zoe and Adrien hide themselves from detection at the Foundation, an academy that trains teen glitchers to fight in the Resistance movement. Together, Zoe and her new team of superhuman fighters must risk their lives to rescue other glitchers and humans from the Chancellor's control. Challenges abound at every turn, and Adrien, who has become silent, distant, and tormented by his visions of the future, only adds to the growing certainty of defeat. But worst of all, as Zoe's team fights against impossible odds, distrust and betrayal leads to the terrible discovery that their greatest threat could already be lurking behind the safe walls of the Foundation.

My Review:
Oh, this was a really great book! I enjoyed the first book, and then was lucky enough to get this one from NetGalley (which makes me really hope that I'll get the 3rd and final book, too, because I don't think I could stand the waiting!) and yeah, it was just so awesome!

This takes place a little after Glitch, after a bit of a rest period, a time of hiding, because of Zoe's specific reaction to areas that don't activate her immune system. And then her hiding place is found, and then it's on to better things!

We get to meet a lot of new characters, and really get to know others that we only really saw in Glitch. And people are what make up books, their stories, and what is happening to them. So yeah, new characters=new things happening. It was great!

Ending this book that way? Mean to us readers! And for the characters! That was not a good spot at all, they're in a pretty horrible place, after all that happened in this book! There was a lot of heart-break, but man, this ending took it to a new level!

Enjoyed this so, so much, and I really can't wait for the final book!
