The Resistance (Declaration)

by Gemma Malley

This book once again provides questions and answers relating to a world where long life exists. For me this was the most interesting part of The Resistance.

Thank goodness I felt a lot more invested in The Resistance than The Declaration. In this book, I actually felt the shock, the indecisiveness, the anger and I was rooting for the characters to succeed.

Unfortunately, I couldn't connect with the main characters, Anna and Peter. I felt that their soul reason for being together was not really because they loved each other, but it was more for creating a future generation of human beings. Even although Anna and Peter are made to seem like adults in the sense of getting a job, looking after a small baby, they kept on reminding me that they were only teenagers. They were young and immature and this made me feel a little uncomfortable with their lives.

The first half of this book was about infiltrating Pincent Pharma and worrying about signing the Declaration, but towards the end, the pace picked up and the book began to feel a lot more actiony.

This book was much better than the the first one and even although I wasn't connecting with Anna and Peter as characters, the book was a quick read and provided an interesting concept.
