My Rating: 3/5
From Goodreads: If you had met me a few weeks ago, you probably would have described me as an average teenage girl—someone normal. Now my life has changed forever and I'm as far away from normal as it gets. A living science experiment—not only can I see ghosts, but I was genetically altered by a sinister organization called the Edison Group. What does that mean? For starters, I'm a teenage necromancer whose powers are out of control; I raise the dead without even trying. Trust me, that is not a power you want to have. Ever.
Now I'm running for my life with three of my supernatural friends—a charming sorcerer, a cynical werewolf, and a disgruntled witch—and we have to find someone who can help us before the Edison Group finds us first. Or die trying.
My Thoughts: Quite some time has passed since I read the first book in this series. I remember being eager to read the next one and find out what would happen to Chloe and her friends. I have to say, though, I was a little disappointed. The Awakening didn't excite me and keep me in suspense like the first book. There were some developments in the next installement of the series that I found interesting, but I just felt like the story was lacking. The relationships between Chloe and her fellow supernaturals are changing and becoming more dynamic, and this book seemed to highlight the awkward transition between strangers and close friends. I'm hoping the third book in the series is more exciting than this one.
