Full disclosure - the author is one of my GR friends, but that's not why I read this book. I read [b:Cloak and Dagger|16107708|Cloak and Dagger (The IMA, #1)|Nenia Campbell|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1351489132s/16107708.jpg|21920754] and [b:Armed and Dangerous|16282581|Armed and Dangerous (The IMA, #2)|Nenia Campbell|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1354960277s/16282581.jpg|22385387] because she was a friend, and I liked them (quite a bit, actually), so that's why I decided to try this one. Not to mention another awesome review, which actually helped me when I'd stalled: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/670899476I got stuck because I was struggling with the age of the heroine (14), and frustrated with the immaturity level displayed (I'm in my 40s - I confess to nothing older, ^_^) and I have a hard time remembering what is was like to be that young (not to mention - I do not like to think of myself as being that immature - It's just embarrassing at this stage of the game). That review put things in better perspective, and with my new-found viewpoint, I restarted.I'd put this under YA suspense, and as that, it was a well done story, and by then end, I couldn't put it down. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series when the heroine is a bit more mature (17 instead of 14).
HJL Reviews and Musings
I have a book addiction that began with Nancy Drew in kindergarten. I've read pretty much all genres, to exclude non-fiction because I love to read for the escapism. I only review books that I feel strongly about, whether for good or bad. I think of truthful, honest, reviews as being there as a 'pay-it-forward' for others.
