The Evolution of Mara Dyer

This is one disturbing book. You never really know who to trust- even the narrator appears to be a little off her rocker. Is she crazy? Can she kill with her mind? Is she really seeing her dead ex-boyfriend? All these and many more questions are raised in this sequel to the fantastic-The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer. The cast of characters are back, dreamy Noah, wonderful brothers, Daniel and Joseph, quirky friend Jamie and the evil Jude. Mara wakes up in a psychiatric ward (read the first one to see why) to find her parents have committed her. She is determined to get out to protect them from Jude. Only one problem- Jude is dead and no one believes her that she has seen him. Even Noah, who is always on her side, is unsure of whether or not she can be trusted. And Noah has issues of his own. He is a healer who is determined to cause himself pain, just so he can feel something. The only thing he knows is how much he loves Mara. He will go to any lengths to save her, even getting himself thrown in lockdown to be with her. This is a bridge book and leaves the reader with more questions than answers. Who are these gifted kids? Why is Mara having flashbacks to India? How is Jude still alive? And what happened to Noah? Mara will have to play a dangerous game to resolve all these questions. Whew! Asylums have always scared me- evil doctors up to no good, crazy patients with unpredictable mood swings. So if you're up for a good psychological scare- this is the book for you. Happy reading my friends!
