Summary
Alice Darling doesn’t have the best life, but she has her brother and the stifling comfort of repetition. All she has to do is ignore the weird flashes of color in her periphery, the bursts of physics-defying abilities, the feeling of being watched, and her own damning curiosity.
Easy.
It doesn’t matter that her mother hates her very existence, society feels like a prison, and boredom makes her reckless in her attempts to disrupt the monotony of life. All she needs is her brother.
Love and loyalty mean more than any adrenaline rush that fades far too quickly.
She craves the feeling of being wanted. Of belonging.
Only…she doesn’t belong.“I think that went rather well.”
“If that’s your definition of well, I’m afraid of what you think bad is.”
“Bad is getting caught or killed. That didn’t happen so it went well.”
“No. Capture or death is terrible. Worst case scenario. He took the blue pill, and we were chased by Agents. That’s bad.”
“Agree to disagree.”
“You’re insane.”In which Alice learns more about reality and herself than she really wanted to or expected, but makes the best of it by stirring up trouble and running from the fallout as fast as she’s able.
