Review of 'ANAX' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

WOW. The book has so many twists and turns that you aren't always sure where the book is going to go next. Naya has a great adventure for sure, and I really hope the author continues with the series.

If you like fiction or science fiction then read this book. Unlike most books you can get hooked into this story fairly quickly. It is sometimes a little bit hard to remember the characters if you only read a portion of the book at a time.

There are points where I held my breath, laughed, cried, and many other emotions.

I do have some favourite quotes from the book (which shouldn't give any spoilers but may... so potential spoilers warning)

"Naya likes to think that there are a few unwritten rules when it comes to riding in public transport — one of which is not staring"

“All I can hope is that you make the correct decision and not the easy one.”

"People talk more freely when they’re not feeling watched over, and it also gives her a chance to continue looking"

“I should have known you would find out the truth, but [....] made me swear not to tell you anything until you were old enough… and I guess you never were, not for me, not for the truth. I wanted to keep you in the dark for as long as I could. I wanted you to have the perfect life I was never able to have.”

“There’s nothing cowardly about dealing with anxiety and moving on despite it.”
