It was a super engaging and high octane continuation of this post-apocalyptic thriller. I ended up careening through this book pretty quickly and was left eager to read more. Patsy has faked her own death and is trying to decide what to do next before Valor finds her and retaliates against her actions. Her and Wyatt decide to join The Citizens for Freedom; which they find out is just as bad as Valor in its own way. We find out a lot more in this book about how and why Valor took over the country. We also find out a lot more about how Patsy is involved and why she was targeted. Additionally we learn about Wyatt’s past as well. My favorite part of the book was all the new and interesting characters that are introduced. They are all well done and fun to read about. This book is intense; there is a lot of violence and some torture so it’s not for the faint of heart. However, this makes the book absolutely heart-stopping at points and very hard to put down. There are also some wonderful tender scenes between Wyatt and Patsy that are an excellent counter-balance to the violence throughout. It’s very intriguing to see how each of the characters deals with this collapse of civilization and the forced violence in their own way. Overall I ended up enjoying this book a lot and am curious to see where things end up in the third and final book of this series! I would recommend to those who are interested in post-apocalyptic thrillers or government conspiracy types of books. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

From the author of the "gritty near-future dystopian tale," (Booklist) Hit comes the thrilling sequel about an indentured assassin fighting to survive in a world of anarchy. The hit list was just the beginning. Time to strike back. After faking her own death to escape her term as an indentured assassin for Valor Savings Bank, Patsy is on the run with her boyfriend, Wyatt. All she wants to do is go home, but that's never going to happen--not as long as Valor's out to get her and the people she loves. Left with no good choices, Patsy's only option is to meet with a mysterious group that calls itself the Citizens for Freedom. Led by the charismatic Leon Crane, the CFF seem to be just what Patsy has been looking for. Leon promises that if she joins, she'll finally get revenge on Valor for everything they've done to her--and for everything they've made her do. But Patsy knows the CFF has a few secrets of their own. One thing is certain: they'll do absolutely anything to complete their mission, no matter who's standing in their way. Even if it's Patsy herself. Delilah S. Dawson takes anarchy and high-octane drama to the next explosive level in this sequel to the "practically movie-ready" (Kirkus Reviews) novel, Hit.

Hit #1. Dystopian YA thriller. Cliffhanger.
Fast paced and tightly written. Engrossing and electrifying.
Do you read every line in those contracts or software agreements? Imagine if in the small print it includes a kill or die condition. Scary thought what may be in those 20 pages of legalese.
The banks have taken over for the government. There are no more police. Teenagers have been tested with a hidden agenda.
The bank: Pay your debt or become a mercenary. Or die.
I like Patsy’s commitment to help her mother. I don’t trust Wyatt. I can’t wait to read the next in the series. ( )
