Summary: from Good Reads
Godspeed was once fueled by lies. Now it is ruled by chaos.

It’s been three months since Amy was unplugged. The life she always knew is over. Everywhere she looks, she sees the walls of the spaceship Godspeed.

But there may be hope: Elder has assumed leadership of the ship. He's finally free to act on his vision—no more Phydus, no more lies.

But when Elder learns shocking news about the ship, he and Amy race to discover the truth behind life on Godspeed. They must work together to unlock a mystery that was set in motion hundreds of years earlier. Their success—or failure—will determine the fate of the 2,298 passengers aboard Godspeed. But with each step, the journey becomes more perilous, the ship more chaotic, and the love between them more impossible to fight.

Beth Revis catapulted readers into the far reaches of space with her New York Times bestselling debut, Across the Universe. In A Million Suns, Beth deepens the mystery with action, suspense, romance, and deep philosophical questions. And this time it all builds to one mind-bending conclusion: They have to get off this ship.




Feelings: 

This book develops the relationship between Elder and Amy. Amy is giving elder space so that he can be the leader that Godspeed needs, however, it is harder for her to do this because he is the only one on the ship that really cares for her and doesn't see her difference as a bad thing.

In some ways this book felt a little like a dramatic treasure hunt. Okay let me just say that it isn't a bad thing. I thought the book was good and I liked it. It was just one clue to the next while Amy tries to survive on the ship with people who think she is strange and different and can't accept her.

I would recommend this book to those that enjoyed the first in the series.
