The Becoming of Noah Shaw by Michelle Hodkin
4.0
... I don't remember disliking Mara this much.
This book is the reason why I read. It's the feeling you get when for the first half of the book, you're on the cusp of putting it down, but you read further and further, and suddenly it's a movie, and you can practically imagine the score that would accompany it. This was that type of book. At the end of it, I was reading the epilogue, and I swear I could hear the sound of violins reaching a crescendo, and then drifting off.
TLDR: The ending is amazing, the rest of the book- not so much. I would however, reread the entire book again just for the ending.
