The Moon Dwellers by David Estes
4.0
Okay, so it took me a whole month to read this! (I've been super busy) and I'm really sad that it took me so long to read this because it was good book. The times when I managed to sit and read for a period of time I was really engrossed (didn't even notice the train guards asking to see our tickets until one was right beside my seat, but I digress).
The idea for the book is so creative, a dystopian world set underground? What? So it took a while for me to stop envisioning tan above ground world because it's so new to me, but I got there.
I loved all the characters (well, except Rivet). Elsey is my favourite, the youngest but I just loved her dramatic nature, courage and her relationship with Adele.
Tawni and Cole (Cole!) were great best friends for Adele, they grew so close so quickly and I loved that Adele didn't spend like half the book questioning their motives and friendship etc.
Roc was funny, and he and Tristan make a great pair. And Adele, she can kick butt and she's so brave. Even though she was alone at the start of the book (and the beginning of her time in the pen) I'm glad she was open and trusting with Cole and Tawni because their friendship was one of my favourite parts of the book. And the action, who can forget the explosions and escaping and near death experiences. What didn't they go through in their journey?
I still don't know what the deal is with her and Tristan! They spent the entire book always from each other and when they finally meet she has to leave :( I need to know what's up with this, the ending made it seem like all will be explained when Adele finds her mum so I'm excited to find out the true meaning behind Tristan and Adele.
I can't wait to see what else is in store with this series. This book was really entertaining and mysterious so I just hope it gets better from here.
