Waiting on Wednesday (#118): Deceptive by Emily Lloyd-Jones


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.


This week, I'm featuring:


Deceptive by Emily Lloyd-Jones
Book Two of the Illusive series
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
Publication Date: July 14, 2015

Summary (from Goodreads):

You don’t belong with us. These are the words that echo through the minds of all immune Americans—those suffering the so-called adverse effects of an experimental vaccine, including perfect recall, body manipulation, telepathy, precognition, levitation, mind-control, and the ability to change one’s appearance at will.

When immune individuals begin to disappear—in great numbers, but seemingly at random—fear and tension mount, and unrest begins to brew across the country. Through separate channels, super-powered teenagers Ciere, Daniel, and Devon find themselves on the case; super criminals and government agents working side-by-side. It’s an effort that will ultimately define them all—for better or for worse.



Illusive was really good!

    I bought the first book recently because it sounded really good and it came highly recommend. I have a little time to read it to catch up. Great pick!

    I haven't read the first book, but I've wanted to read it ever since it came out. Maybe I'll manage to catch up, though. Enjoy the book when you get to read it Alyssa!

    This sounds like a neat new twist on the vaccine gone wrong plot device. Sounds really good!
