Blog Tour | Sneak (Swipe, #2) by Evan Angler + Giveaway

Sneak (Swipe, #2)

Sneak (Swipe, #2) by Evan Angler 
Series: Swipe #2
Release Date: September 4th 2012
Publisher:  Thomas Nelson
Age Group: Young Adult 
Pages:  288
Overall: 
When Logan Langly backed out of getting the Mark and went on the run, no one thought he could survive on his own. Without the Mark, you can't buy food, bot to the doctor, or use a tablet-you aren't even a citizen. But when he discovers that his sister is being held in a mysterious hidden prison named Acheron, Logan risks everything to travel through and underground network of the Markless to rescue her. Logan arrives only to find that Acheron holds more secrets than anyone could have guessed and that all his careful planning is worthless against a government that will do anything to gain absolute control. It seems there is only one place to turn. But can a banned book with whisper-this pages and warnings about the real meaning of the Mark really hold the Answer?
My Thoughts:                                                                                                                              


I rarely, like rarely read books from a guy’s POV, unless it’s told in multiple POV’s. But any who, I literally devoured “Swiped” the 1st book in the series. It felt like seconds but, it was a rather quick read. And when you add suspense and dytopia together, that just makes the perfect combo of awesome!

Sneak pretty much picks up where Swiped left of. Logan is out the run and looking for some answers. Things start to make a lot of sense in ‘Sneak.’ Everything has been leading up to this point. Logan found out some things in the 1st book and now he’s more aware of what is going on. To say the least he is definitely on a mission.

In the Sneak I really liked the portrayal of the main MC Logan. It was pretty easy to slip away into his thoughts and state of mind. It definitely felt natural and genuine, I love reading stories where the characters feel like real people. And the characters in Sneak are just that.

I also liked the overall plot to the story. Here’s a world that has saw devastation, a population that is strictly controlled and brainwashed, where do they go from here? I think Angler’s portrayal of the world was rather realistic. I don’t want to get into too much about what these characters have to go through and what their world expects from them but it’s eerily realistic. It’s a heart pounding series! I’m really interested to see how the rest of the trilogy plays out. Readers who are looking for an introduction to the dystopian genre should pick this one up!
