Ariane says and thinks the funniest things, I found myself laughing while sunbathing on the cruise. Seriously, Kade is a genious in terms of humor. But my favorite part has to be Ariane's inner monologues. The mixture of the intense, paranoid, on edge feeling that the book delivers to the reader is why I enjoyed it so much. There are so many random things that happen as well as completely unexpected facts and events that it is impossible to know what will happen next.

(Just kidding I love Zane.)Īnyway, without giving too much away, the plot is nothing like what you expect. The characters are a huge factor in this, Ariane is amazing and I guess Zane isn't so bad either. I mean, you really know a book is great when you are laughing, crying and shocked all at the same time, The Rules delivers in this respect. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time, sometimes with tears in my eyes. It was fast pace and flowed seamlessly through the many facts and events that occurred. I was drawn in by Kade's style of writing. And that leads us to where I am now, addicted. But as I wandered around the store, it kind of grew on me and I found myself right back in front of its shelf.

Now honestly, I saw this book, read the summary and put it back. Suddenly, nothing is simple anymore, especially not the rules… Review After years of trying to be invisible, Ariane finds the attention frightening-and utterly intoxicating. Ariane’s survival-and that of her adoptive father-depends on her ability to blend in among the full-blooded humans in a small Wisconsin town, to hide in plain sight at her high school from those who seek to recover their lost (and expensive) “project.”īut when a cruel prank at school goes awry, it puts her in the path of Zane Bradshaw, the police chief’s son and someone who sees too much. Ariane Tucker has followed them since the night she escaped from the genetics lab where she was created, the result of combining human and extraterrestrial DNA.
