The Scattering (The Outliers, Book 2)

New York Times bestselling author Kimberly McCreight raises the stakes in the second book of the heart-pounding Outliers trilogy, a uniquely speculative story about secrets, betrayal, and a world where one small group of people are blessed—or cursed—with an incredible power. Wylie may have escaped the camp in Maine, but she is far from safe. The best way for her to protect herself is to understand her ability, fast. But after spending a lifetime trying to ignore her own feelings, giving in to her ability to read other peoples’ emotions is as difficult as it is dangerous. And Wylie isn’t the only one at risk. Ever since they returned home, Jasper has been spiraling, wracked with guilt over what happened to Cassie. After all they’ve been through together, Wylie and Jasper would do anything for each other, but she doesn’t know if their bond is strong enough to overcome demons from the past. It is amid this uncertainty and fear that Wylie finds herself confronted with a choice. She was willing to do whatever it took to help Cassie, but is she prepared to go to the same extremes to help complete strangers . . . even if they are just like her?

I think I liked this one more then the first one by a little. I really liked the main character in the first one but this go around she was annoying and frustrating. It did have some good moments though so I'll probably read the next one to see what happens.

i only gave this book a 4 because of the ending. Overall it was probably only a 3 or 3.5. The first book was so amazing that it was one of my most anticipated releases for me. But SPOILER ahead.. I was so disappointed with how they delt with the last books ending. The final line in the outliers was esentially "run" because the creepy FBI men were at her house... then the Scattering starts there and it ends up being like "oh no big deal, im going to chase you up your stairs and then nothing is going to happen and im going to leave..." it was just lame. 

Then the rest of the book just felt so far fetched for me. I understand that its writing and its fisction, but i mean there were so many weird coincidences and i guess the first book is also like this too, but The scattering was a bit too cheesy.

NOW after all of that, i did still enjoy it and went through it really fast and i gave it a 4 like i said because it was one of those books that the whole way through i was thinking that i probably wouldnt continue with the series and then the ending left me on such a cliff that once again I HAVE TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS!!
