Hello my fellow PageFlicker fans! What have you been up to lately. Remember, if you have any book review recommendations comment down below - I will definitely read them! Anyway down to the review. This book review is about the second book in The Territory series but don't fret if you haven't read the first book, you can read my review on it below.
The last book ends with Noa and Raf finding out that they passed the TAA but their beloved friend Jack was going to be send off to the disease ridden wetlands. Noa promised to save Jack, her lifelong friends that she couldn't lose. In the next days, Noa and Raf collected resources and supplies for their malignant and treacherous journey. Mosquito repellent, matches, clothes, water purification tablets - they took it all. Although getting through the fence will be tough, the toughest part would be parting from their families. As Noa's parents wished her good luck in college, Noa just smiled but inside complete agony and anguish tore through her as she knew the chances of them saving Jack and returning in time was slim to none.
This fresh-dystopian novel tells us a story of love, support and persistence. I especially enjoyed this novel as Govett didn't suddenly imagine that Noa and Raf are some kind of heroes but just teenagers. They survived through humanity and love. Moreover, when Noa and Raf enter the Wetlands we see that people there are trying to build a society - a new life. Children here a being born and educated. Generations are setting up villages and living here. This community is building an opposition team, hatching plans to overthrow the ministry. An elite team are recruited - to hack, fight and destroy. These people are fighting for a better future for the Territory - they want humanity and kindness - not a corrupt and unfair society. But although their master plan sounds magnificent and easy to pull off, others will hold them back.
I really enjoyed this fast paced, vivid, survival book. It made me cry and scream with joy. Many times I guessed what will happen later in the book but Sarah surprised with twists and turns in the plot. The one negative for me is the ending of this book - it didn't satisfy me - nothing major was revealed and nothing happened (in my opinion). This is why I hope there will be a new book in the series - continuing from this engrossing and enthralling book.
