Libro refugio ann aguirre biography

Deuce is as amazing as ever, even though she times don't get it fast. Fade is just awesome, but he needs to understand her more. Stalker is more likable in this book. And Tegan is surprisingly braver. I'm sure I'll like Horde , with this ending, it seems so promising. The characters are so good that you forget sometimes that Deuce is only years old.

Here we are again: me singing praise to Ann Aguirre and you guys putting up with me. I must admit I was terrified of reading this book, but not because I doubted Aguirre in the least.

No, I was terrified because, even before starting it, I knew it would crush me into tiny Maja bits. And it did. I can be rather nitpicky when it comes to dystopian worlds. Hot water has been banned and the government controls fish byproducts, or something along those lines. There would surely be groups of people, entire communities that would go back to old values.

And some would probably find their way underground, where such a thing is possible. She is meticulously consistent, and not just with Deuce, but with all her characters. Not many authors leave me in awe of their insightfulness and intelligence, but somehow, Ann Aguirre always does. She is, above all, an excellent psychologist and she knows her characters to the bone.

It is a triangle of comfort, hope and kindred spirits, and there is nothing simple about it. I may have hated some things that happened in this book with a fiery passion, but I never hated the characters for them! Deuce is amazing, one of those characters that make you want to stand up and do something extraordinary for yourself and for others.

She is grown up in some ways, and adolescent in others, naive at times, but a quick learner too. And truth be told, this open ending not exactly a cliffhanger is less painful than most. This is, hands down, my favorite book in I hope I helped the rest of you decide to read it, and soon. Until tonight, I had thought of her only as someone giving me a place to stay out of obligation, out of charity.

I hadn't known she cared. Why would she? I wasn't a proper girl, nobody she'd have chosen for her kin. And yet her regard was unmistakable; she had been worried about me. I didn't think anybody ever had been before. I was a Huntress, so if I went out and died, then I had done my job. The enclave had its rules and didn't permit bonds to form between offspring and parents.

For the first time, I almost understood what a loss Fade had suffered, because he could remember both of his. The things I'd done on the elder's orders filled me with hot shame now. I had killed an innocent man as a test of loyalty, and I'd let them murder a brat in cold blood. My own hands weren't clean. Maybe Tegan's were; and she'd never hurt anyone who didn't deserve it.

I couldn't help what I'd done before I learned it was wrong. I could only do better in the future. And the same held true for Stalker, whether anybody else believed it or not. Whether he could rise above the person he'd been in the gangs, well, that rested squarely in his own hands. She went on, "Anyway, I just didn't want you to think I'd forgotten what we talked about.

Or the fact that I wouldn't even be here, if it wasn't for you. Stalker had taken a turn, too, but I doubted she cared to be reminded that she owed him even a small portion of her gratitude. On the scales between them, it was inadequate for what she'd endured with the Wolves. Disquiet shivered through me. In Tegan's place, I would've fought until I died.

Nobody would've touched me while I still drew breath, so there wouldn't have been any unborn brats to lose Her path of quieter resistance led to survival through suffering. Tegan wasn't a Huntress, so according to enclave rules, she would've likely been a Breeder if we'd found her, because as Stalker had judged, she had no skills and no visible defects.

Yet in the enclave, Breeders didn't fight their roles. Tegan had. That meant her mother had taught her that she didn't have to bear young for the benefit of the group. Such freedom seemed foreign Down below, no one ever hinted that my own desires could be more important than the good of the whole. But that didn't make Tegan mistaken; it meant the Wolves punished her.

And that, I did believe, was wrong. So far as I could tell, nobody had invented the perfect system, and it was awful to hurt people who disagreed with you. The enclave had done it too. I was kind of like huh? That's it? Unsurprisingly, I liked Outspost as much as I liked Enclave if not even more. It kept me interested since the first chapter.

I just liked less analysing sometimes. It was useless. And more description shockingly. But this book still was great. Anagha Uppal. Color me excited!! September 27 - This probably sounds redundant because everyone's Outpost reviews are starting with this, but the most important you should get out of this review is that its plot is very unlike Enclave.

Whereas Enclave was all about surviving in harsh environments, walking until your whole body felt like it would fall over any second, and fighting for dear life; Outpost focuses on the relationships between characters, emotional development of the teenagers, and learning more about the enemy. Deuce, Fade, Tegan and Stalker has finally found a place that seems to be safe and they are relieved to be rid of the danger of Freaks, but there are problems of a different kind at Salvation.

For one, Deuce and Fade are so different from the teens here, there are constantly teased and ridiculed. Girls are expected to cook and sew and wear pretty dresses here, and Deuce cannot tolerate these rules. She joins the summer patrols to protect the growers only to be threatened for indecent activities. She does find a family for the first time in her life when she is taken in by a loving and understanding couple - it is here she learns tenderness and devotion and the meaning of love.

Once she joins the Outpost to protect the town's crops from the Freaks, Deuce stars noticing strange things such as fire being stolen from the campsite, and she realizes what this means - the Freaks are growing sneaky and more intelligent and they seem to have a personal grudge against the humans! Nobody listens to her, and eventually, her dear Fade and his tent-mate are taken from the campsite to a giant settlement of Freaks and only Deuce and Stalker can save them.

Outpost's pace is a lot slower than Enclave and most dystopians I have read, but I suppose that's what makes this book so unique. It is so heartwarming that in the midst of all that despair and danger, one can find a love so pure and honest. What hasn't changed since Enclave is Aguirre's impeccable writing style that makes me jump into Deuce's head and want to stay there : Deuce is one of the few characters who can successfully pull off being both a kick-ass MC as well as an emotional girl in love.

When she talks about her fighting, you can feel the passion radiating off the page, and when she and Fade are together Those two have the sweetest relationship ever, up until During Enclave, I was all for Fade. I felt like there was no competition at all and Stalker was just a random dude who tried to kiss Deuce. She didn't even like it much!

It was the same case with Outpost except you learn just how deep Stalker's feelings do. By the end, though, I really don't know what to think. Fade's still Fade, but Stalker has changed, become deeper and more meaningful. Fade's beautiful and sweet and emotional, while Stalker is loyal and so much like Deuce herself. I really don't know what to make of it.

I am dying to know how the Freaks or Muties came about and what the humans did to elicit this kind of response. By the end, we are made aware that these aren't just zombies but mutants. I can't wait to join the foursome together again on another heart-stopping adventure in Monsters. I have to admit that I am love with this book. I can never get over Stalker being a rapist and I will never see him as a love interest.

Plus, he feels very manipulative to me For instance, when Deuce was going to save Fade and he is all like Kiss me, kiss me before you go Really, I think that was manipulative, this girl is going to save her boyfriend and all you can think of is getting her to kiss you Not to mention, he wants her to leave becasue there is nothing to fight or kill in the beginning I did hate that Fade went through what he wet through but I understand his response Noe did I agree with it, no, but I understand it.

Think of how many soliders we send to war and who see something that none of their training has prepared them for and come home to the ones they love and they do not know how to express what is going on with them? Ever stop to think that maybe he is traumatized because he being captured made him feel weak? Maybe he isn't ready to tell Deuce everything that happened?

Maybe he doesnt want to feel like she pities him? Maybe he is traumatized because of what he saw becasue he is tired of having to fight for his right to live and wants to settle down and be happy, and seeing the Freaks and what they have planned for the humans makes him lose hope There is nothing wrong with that especially if he is in love and wants more than to be a hunter for the rest of his days Not to mention he is 18 years old Grown men couldnt handle some of what he has seen and he is being called weak for taking a step back and trying to figure things out for himself.

I am glad the Deuce is in t for the long haul. Fade needs that and she will prove that love can prevail even in the worse of situations I hope that their persistence is rewarded in book 3. I am anxious for Horde I hope that they find what they are looking for and eliminate the Freaks and I hope they find a home While this is not necessarily one of my favourite trilogies, I still can't wait to see how it ends!

Saimi Vasquez. Duece, Feod, Tegan y Stalker ahora viven el la aldea de Salvacion, han intentado acostumbrarse a sus nuevos roles, pero para Deuce y Stalker es mucho mas dificil. En la Aldea ambos son considerados ninos aun y el hecho de que no los dejen entrenar o formar parte de la patrulla los tiene a ambos bastante aburridos, por eso ambos se reunen algunas noches para seguir practicando y no perder sus reflejos.

Y cuando comenzaron a solicitar voluntarios para acompanar a los sembradores, ambos se ofrecieron como voluntarios de inmediato, y junto con Feod, los tres resultaron ser los mas fuertes del grupo de guardias. Pero los Freaks Mutes comenzaron a hacer incursiones en los campos sembrados, Deuce se dio cuenta que estaban aprendiendo, mejorando y que estaban aplicando tacticas casi humanas para sacarlos de su fortaleza, incluso mantenian familias y se reproducian como los humanos, sera que ellos podran tener alguna oportunidad para derrotarlos y poder vivir felices dentro de la Aldea?

Aqui vemos un poco mas de la vida dentro de la aldea, y comenzamos a conocer realmente como actuan los Freaks, pero tambien tenemos un sentimiento de familia, apoyo y confianza vistos desde el punto de vista de alguien que jamas lo tuvo. Realmente fue bastante entretenido y emocionante de leer, esperaba muchas de las cosas que pasaron, pero algunas otras no y eso lo hizo interesante.

Cuando comence a leer esta saga esperaba que fuera parecida a muchas de este estilo, donde la joven resulta ser la elegida y logra conseguir la libertad de todos, pero, aunque es todo eso, la forma de contarlo es diferente y entretenida, lo que hace de esta historia mucho mas interesante de leer que otras del genero. Asi que pors supuesto quiero terminar la serie, quiero saber que va a pasar con los zombies, como van a terminar las parejas y si la Aldea de Salvacion se va a salvar realmente.

September ? Well, I wish I woulda waited to read Enclave.. I won this ARC through a contest on the author's website. This book begins where Enclave left off. Fade, Stalker and Tegan are now adjusting to life in the topside town of Salvation. Men and women in Salvation stick to their roles She isn't a girly-girl; she's a fighter. As each member of the group works to fit in, we see them growing up in a more traditional sense.

All of them have been through so much that they are wise beyond their years. However, relationships and matters of the heart are new to the group. With the support of her mentor, Longshot, Deuce is able to join the town's guard. We see Deuce attempt to reconcile her tough Huntress nature with her own feminine nature. She grasps the importance of relationships and even cultivates a few within Salvation.

They have no shortage of courage or determination. I loved how the book ended. It was a slightly more positive note and we see the close-knit group band together. Tegan surprised me with her resilience after the horrors of her time with the Wolves. Fade and Stalker are not-quite opposites and I am incredibly curious to see how they manage their tentative truce.

I had so much hope for this book after reading and immensely enjoying Enclave, only to be quite disappointed. Let me start with what I think is the biggest flaw of this book. In my mind, I keep seeing all the violence on his tab. Oh how the rape was so not subtly implied! There's just no redemption nor restitution for such a grave transgression.

Comparing him to Fade is a really bad idea. Making him a 'potential' love interest is just downright creepy. Every moment Deuce spends with him makes me cringe. It also pains me to notice how the once ferocious Fade turned into this sappy Edward Cullen clone. It's like seeing Hamlet standing in as Romeo. Yo sigo sin leer este libro u. Por: Kenya a las Ahora no convive tanto con Van ni con Tegan, aunque hay otras personas que se preocupan por ella.

Ahora, los engendros no se conforman con ver. Ahora atacan. Fue un juramento silencioso. Era un pensamiento aterrador. Para ellos, nosotros somos los malos.
