“In Jenna’s world, ACID – the
most brutal, controlling police force in history – rule with an iron fist. And
it was ACID agents who locked Jenna away for life, for a bloody crime she
struggles to remember. But Jenna’s violent prison has taught her a thing or two
about survival. And when a mysterious rebel group breaks her out, she must use
her strength, speed and skill to stay one step ahead.”
What were your initial thoughts on the book?
When I first got the
book I wasn’t very interested in it and wasn’t really sure what the book was
going to be about and whether I would like it. It took me a while to get the
book from my shelf and start reading it. I didn’t really want to read it but
after reading the blurb and learning about it, I was very curious about it and
started thinking that I shouldn’t have judged it so quickly. Although it was by
an unfamiliar author I decided to give it a try and I am very glad I did because
the book was amazing.
Who was your favourite character and why?
My favourite character
is Jenna, I like the fact that she is fierce and strong and always ready for a
battle. I love how confident she is and that she doesn’t care about what others
think of her, she isn’t scared of anyone. I especially like that although she has
a tough exterior she will help anyone who needs her help and cares about her
friends, she will do everything she can to help the people she cares about.
What was your favourite part of the book and
why?
My favourite part of
the book was when Jenna finally learnt the truth about her parents. The story
that she had been forced to believe had been very strange to me and when she
learnt that every day since her life had been taken away from her was actually
a different persons fault I finally understood everything. It was also the best
part because a big question had been answered and Jenna had answers and would
finally be able to defeat ACID and take back the life that had been taken away
from her.
What was your overall impression of the book?
Overall I think that
this was an amazing book, I absolutely loved it. I loved the fact that ACID had
everything, it was an adventure and action book, it had romance and mystery, at
some parts I was happy and at others sad. I really like that it didn’t have one
main genre because it meant that it was very interesting and unpredictable and
that I wouldn’t get bored, with ACID I was always on my toes not knowing what
would come next, always waiting for the unexpected.
Would you recommend this book?
I would definitely recommend
this book to anyone around the ages of 12-15, as it had a bit of everything,
anyone who gives it a try is sure to enjoy it.
Summarise the book in one sentence. (Verdict)
A great book that will
always have you on the edge of your seat.
