I enjoyed the first Book in this series, All Lined Up. I loved loved loved All Broke Down.
I'm trying to gather my thoughts to make this an intelligent and helpful review. I can't decide what I loved the most. Silas was kind of a jerk in the other book, but you wondered what his deal was. Now we know.
Self esteem is a tricky beast. You can like yourself just fine, but not really believe that you deserve good things. Silas is a wonderful representation of this very human condition. Dylan is the good girl who is not sure who she really is or wants to be. I absolutely love that these two meet in jail. Not to give away to much of the story, but it just gets better from there.
Ms. Carmack touches on some pretty intense situations that plague the human population but especially our young. She also did a wonderful job at differentiating between fighting to release anger and inner demons, and standing up for injustice. Silas did both of these things and I feel Ms. Carmack did a great job illustrating the difference.
Silas and Dylan make an awesome duo, excited to see what is in store for the rest of this series.
