Synopsis :
How do you know where to go when you don't remember where you came from?
Kyla's memory has been erased,
her personality wiped blank,
her memories lost for ever.
Or so she thought.
Kyla
shouldn't be able to remember anything. But she can - and she's
beginning to realise that there are a lot of dark secrets locked away in
her memories. When a mysterious man from her past comes back into her
life, she thinks she's on her way to finding the truth. But the more she
learns about her history, the more confusing her future becomes...
Set
in a disturbing future world, FRACTURED is an engrossing, fast-paced
read that establishes Teri Terry as a master thriller writer.
This is the second book of Slated Trilogy and yeah.. I don't read the first book. Based on some people's reviews, I bet the first book will make me bored. The first book is all about Kyla goes amnesia and she has to learn every single thing from the very beginning again. From the synopsis of Fractured, I guess the suspense starts from here.
This girl, the main character, has three names. She was Lucy until when she was 10, she was Rain when she was 14 and now her name is Kyla.
What I dislike from Kyla/Rain/Lucy (whatever you call her) is she is very obedient to a man, she is like a puppy and a puppet for that man.
This man is indeed mysterious, I have no idea who he is. I think I will get to know this man in book 3, Shattered.

Synopsis :
In the future Dystopian
society of Cabal, the government instills equality for all and offers
its citizens the perfect system. There is food, shelter and jobs for
everyone. The one requirement is to follow the rules without question,
including the government's match in marriage and "The Day of the
Chosen", a lottery that randomly selects families to conceive children
as natural means hasn't existed in generations. Following her eighteenth
birthday, Olivia Parker accepts her requirement to marry her childhood
best friend, Joshua Warren, and is eager to start her work assignment
and new life when it all comes abruptly to an end as she's arrested and
thrown in prison. The only crime committed, her existence. Olivia is
unlike the rest of the world born not from "The Day of the Chosen." The
truth haunts the government and puts her life in grave danger as one
simple fact would destroy the perfect system.
With Joshua's
help, Olivia breaks free of prison and is forced on the run. Together
they set out to find the promised rebel town in search of a new home and
new life together. Their situation seems less than promising as they
reach the town of Haven. New rules and customs must be adhered to in
order to stay. Leaving would mean most certain death in the large
expanse of the Gravelands. Time is running out as the government mounts
an attack to destroy Olivia and bury her secret with her. Thrown into a
world unlike their own, they must quickly adapt to survive.
I love the cover! Isn't she beautiful?
However, behind the beautiful cover..the story is too mediocre for me. It does not catch my interest. I expected there would be some actions in this book, but there is none. This book is just filled with romance. Boring for me. I am quite sure, in the book 2, Moirai, there will be some actions! I will not blurt out the spoiler here, but after you read the end of the book, you will agree with me. A war is waiting in book 2 and so do I!
