Identity
Reviews

This just wasn't for me Also the Kindle formatting made it hard to read and I'm not sure whay wad up with that. Shrug. It might be good for you though .

See my FULL review of this book on my blog along with others at: shesgoingbookcrazy.com "What is it, then, that comprises our deepest selves and gives us worth?" This is one of those books that I feel I could dissect for days. There is so much here that could be discussed, but I will refrain, and rather urge you to pick up this series. Discussing self, both of the main characters are introduced with all of their crises hanging out. Christy, a teenage girl with self-image insecurities and feelings of abandonment as she was orphaned, struggles to connect with other kids her age. She feels as though she doesn't have a childhood or a past altogether. Because of this, she puts a false sense of security in a locket necklace, still featuring the display photo that she bought it with. When she finds herself encased in stone, she could never guess what is to come next. Just when hope and escape seem to be on the horizon, Christy is sucked into a world of deception, confusion, and manipulation, and becomes a victim of a rather nasty antagonist. "Not knowing who your parents are can mess with your identity. An all too common phenomenon these days, but in reality, most people have no idea who they really are. Do you know who you are, Christy?" Austin, having a very different upbringing and life altogether, still manages to relate to Christy. "In every other way he was quite average: average height, average weight, average athleticism. But his mind set him apart." His mind is his sustenance. A brilliant mind with many promises of a bright future, Austin begins to experience terrible headaches and fears for the worst. On his way to visit the doctor, he receives Christy's desperate voicemail and decides to search for her first. In doing so, he discovers a grim secret and finds himself trapped in a world where there is no exit. For those of you who enjoy psychological thrillers, and books that make you really reflect on yourself, this is a series you may enjoy. It is well written, creative, and definitely frustrating at times! My Rating: ★★★½ My Blog ¦ Bookstagram ¦ Twitter ¦ Pinterest ¦ Facebook
