This is the 2nd part in The Forest of Hands and Teeth series. While I liked the first one, I wasn't blown away, so I didn't have high hopes for this one. But boy I couldn't have been any more wrong. I LOVED this book. More excitement, better romance, and a more believable teen angst(although that part annoyed me at times).
In this 2nd novel, Mary(our heroine from the first) is all grown up and has a child of her own, Gabry(whom is the heroine of this book). Gabry is nothing like her mother. She's not curious about the world beyond the fence, she's content to live in the safety of Vista her whole life. But one night her best friend and her best friends brother convince her to sneak out of Vista and see the crumbling remains of a Pre-Return amusement park. Because of the brothers charm and good looks, she goes against her own good judgment and ventures outside the fence. And that's when all hell breaks loose. The boy she likes, her best friend, and several other teens from Vista are forever changed by a Breaker, a fast zombie, who attacks the group. Gabry, in her fear, runs away and avoids association with the troubled group. But her guilt get the best of her and she's determined to make it right. Garby's life went from being peaceable, to chaotic, over night. She has to face her fears and her realities. And along the way she meets a handsome mysterious boy who brings some security to her new insanity.
This 3 part series comes to it's conclusion next year with book 3's release and I cannot wait. I suggest the series for anyone who enjoys a good YA preternatural romance.
