The Visitor by K.A. Applegate
5.0
Reviewing as I reread a childhood favorite series~
Rachel's always been my favorite of the characters- frustrated and fierce and not content to just sit back and watch anything when she can instead be doing.
This book is, imo, more of a gut punch than the first-- with more focus on the despair and humanity (or lack thereof). The treatment of her friend and the futility of trying to do anything for her, the danger of trying to help her, sets my teeth as much on edge as it does Rachel.
A good reminder of why her POV books were always my favorites, she just seems so much more human than the others with her frustration and chaos and determination.
