( ) Dystopian with an interesting setting. While the world has certainly been changed by a cataclysmic event, the world is not in ruins. I like that it depicts a government dealing with the disaster in a realistic way as opposed to having everything go to hell. I also like the fact that the country where this story takes place is never named. It’s a nowhere island, which could therefore be anywhere. The characters are relatable and mostly likeable. I don’t read a lot of YA because the characters tend to be more immature than any teen I’ve ever met, but I didn’t encounter that problem here. I’m a sucker for an interesting antagonist, and I would’ve liked to know more about Drew’s motivations. All in all, this is a promising start to the series. [The Institute] by [Kayla Howarth] is an intense thriller with a futuristic lean. The main character Allira and her family have spent their lives hiding that her brother was "defective". "Defectives" go to the Institute where they are said to be kept safe and taken care of, but no one who has gone there is heard from again. Will one mistake trip them all up and find the true nature of the Institute? The characters were typical for a YA audience but definitely good. The intertwining of the relationships and emotions makes this plot. There were some unexpected surprises as well as issues that are still up in the air. Guess the second book is a must read to clear those questions up. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Living in constant fear. Always looking over your shoulder. The source of your fear? The Institute.Allira Daniels will do anything to keep her Defective brother safe from the Institute. They claim to protect Defectives, but it's human nature to fear the unknown. Defectives are dangerous, they possess abilities that no human should be able to. To Allira and the rest of her family, the Institute seems more like a prison than the safe-haven they promote themselves to be. Protecting Shilah from that fate is their number one priority.When Allira stumbles across a car crash involving two of her school classmates, she ignores all of her father's warnings of laying low and not drawing attention to herself. By doing so, she may have just caught the eye of the Institute. She's not Defective, but what seventeen-year-old girl has the ability to pull two teenage boys away from a fiery rubble and walk away without a scratch? It would definitely be seen as suspicious.Allira and her family need to make decisions. Do they stay, or do they flee again? Will they be coming for her? Will her whole family come under investigation? Are you Defective? The Institute is coming for you. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
