Book Spoiler : Acid by Emma Pass

This is the first time I read standalone dystopian novel.
One word for Acid : awesomeness.
It is fulled of action-packed and will make you don't want to put it down!


Synopsis :
2113. In Jenna Strong’s world, ACID – the most brutal, controlling police force in history – rule supreme. No throwaway comment or muttered dissent goes unnoticed – or unpunished. And it was ACID agents who locked Jenna away for life, for a bloody crime she struggles to remember.

The only female inmate in a violent high-security prison, Jenna has learned to survive by any means necessary. And when a mysterious rebel group breaks her out, she must use her strength, speed and skill to stay one step ahead of ACID – and to uncover the truth about what really happened on that dark night two years ago.


THIS IS A HUGE SPOILER REVIEW! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Jenna Strong was arrested in a custody where there is no a single girl in there. All of them are boys. She was accused of killing her parents.
Dr.Alex Fisher saved Jenna to get out from the prison, but he failed to save himself. He was killed by ACID.
However, Jenna was accused of murdering Dr. Alex Fisher.
Jenna met Mel and Jon. They are LifePartnered and parts of FREE.
They didn't tell Jenna why they saved her, being so kind to her, and bla bla bla..
They did a plastic surgery for Jenna and she changed to a completely another person.
Not only face.. They made a fake c-card (ID) for Jenna and her name became Mia Richardson.
They gave a fake LifePartner for her, named Cade Johnson. (which is he will be mysteriously disappeared after his departure and we have no idea where he is).
They sent them to Outer to live there temporarily.
Then, Mia a.k.a Jenna met Maxwell Alexander Fisher. He is Dr. Alex's son.
Max didn't know who Mia was.
Jenna wanted to save Max by bringing him to FREE.
She arranged an appointment with Mel on Ceremony Day, however ACID agents found them both suspicious.
Instead of keep going to Mel's place (because it will bring jeopardy to FREE), they fled and they met Jacob and the gang, they are parts of NAR who wants to topple ACID.
Jenna and Max didn't want to join Jacob because they don't want to kill people.
Jacob knew they didn't want to cooperate with NAR.
So, Jacob oversaw them when the day of the event took place, as he expected, they betrayed Jacob. Eventually, Jacob told Max that Mia is Jenna Strong, whom he strongly believed she was his father's murderer. He felt betrayed.
Both of them were found by ACID and taken to the custody.
Jenna was given two choices :
1. Live in Upper, have a job, and being chosen a LifePartner. BUT, she will be given drugs to make her forgets everything that had happened.
2. Death sentence
Jenna once again went through plastic surgery and fake ID, her name became Jessica Stone and being partnered with Evan Denbrough.
FREE did everything they can do to bring Jenna back.
They made Jenna remembered everything and she met Anna, her real mother and a part of FREE.
Jenna was implanted false memories using CR by ACID. So, Jenna didn't kill her parents!!! (I knew it from the beginning, I knew it)
Jenna, together with FREE, saved Max in Innis Ifrinn.
Max felt sorry towards her that he didn't believe in her.
For the ending, there is a little bit of cliffhanger that might be continue to the sequel but I don't think Emma Pass makes the continuation of this book because it is said that she is working on another standalone novel.
