Tenia muchas ganas de poder continuar la saga olvidados. Mi parabatai no dejaba de decirme millones de veces que debia continuar leyendo. Asi que finalmente continue y no me ha defraudado. Tal vez no me haya gustado tanto como olividados pero igualmente me ha encantado aun siendo mas aburrido.
Ya se que el siguiente sera aun mas entretenido asi que espero con ansia el poder leermelo
Debo decir que me siento rara diciendo que mis favoritos en estos momentos son Jack (mi amor eterno) Diana, Brianna y Caine (si me encantan)Tengo debilidad por los de Coates y por Brianna porque ella no puede ser odiada por nadie
El caso es que todos deberian leer esta saga que me ha enganchado y que me obliga a descargarme el PDF de Lies pero ya

I really enjoyed the book, I got really invested. I enjoyed it more then the first because it was an answer to so many questions. We got to see more kids use powers and get stronger with them. We got to see how kids created a government and how they controlled the horrible situation of famine. It was really well written I enjoyed the way that I was always wanting to know either how they will come up with the solution to this or if someone died. Like Drake shooting at Dekka I thought for sure she was dead but really Orc had saved her and again the Coyotes eating her, Diana hitting her head, Lana being part of the monster, Edilio being shot I thought omg they were all dead. But they didn’t die. And the radiation! Except I really hope that Duck isn’t dead and that he comes back in a later book.

I read this book in hopes it was better than the first. I was wrong. Don’t read it.

It was a very nice sequel. The only issues I had were it that there hardly seemed to be any development with Sam, Astrid, Edilio or any of the characters in general. I do think that Sam handled the stress realistically like any other teenager would. I know this is a shabby review--but bottom-line this good was really good. (: I recommend it to anyone! (who was read the first one of course)

If you think Michael Grant couldn’t get better with GONE, the first novel in this six-part series, think again and again and again! HUNGER completely blows the first book out of the water in terms of action, suspense, horror, and intrigue. It includes all the positives of GONE—the multicharacter points of view, the supernatural, the killer kids with superpowers—and adds more exciting components.

One of my favorite aspects of the GONE books is their ability to weave an engaging story from multiple characters’ points of view. This allows readers to understand everyone’s motivations and faults, passions and lapses in judgment, for an ultimately more believable and enjoyable reading experience. With the exception of purposely-made-evil villains, it’s easy to picture these characters as simply frightened teenagers thrown into a nightmarish life, every day trying to balance morality with survival.

Of course, the GONE series would not be such a success were it not for its elaborate and utterly fascinating plot. It is clear on from every chapter that a lot of thought and preparation has gone into this series. Fans of Harry Potter and TV shows like “Lost” will be able to enjoy GONE and HUNGER’s complexity, subplots, supernatural elements, and budding romances. Basically, this series has everything, and each book’s 500+ pages will pass by in an all-too-fast flash that will leave your palms sweating, your heart racing, and your mind hungering for more from this talented author.
