Title: Ruins
Author: Dan Wells
Series: Partials #3
Genre: Teen Fantasy / Dystopian
Release Date: March 11, 2014
The Overview: As the clock ticks closer and closer to the final Partial expiration date, humans and Partials stand on the brink of war. Caught in the middle, thousands of miles apart, are Samm and Kira: Samm, who is trapped on the far side of the continent beyond the vast toxic wasteland of the American Midwest; and Kira, now in the hands of Dr. Morgan, who is hell-bent on saving what’s left of the Partials, even if she has to destroy Kira to do it. The only hope lies in the hands of the scattered people of both races who seek a way to prevent the rapidly escalating conflict. But in their midst appears a mysterious figure, neither human nor Partial, with solemn warnings of the new apocalypse-one that none of them may be able to avert.

The first book in this series, Partials, was by far the best YA I read in 2012 (and trust me, it had some stiff competition). I loved the characters, the story, the world-building, the pacing – everything! The second book was every bit as good, and now I am dying to find out what happens next! This series is responsible for reinvigorating my love of dystopians and I recommend it as often as I can. If you loved Hunger Games, Divergent, and Legend, this is the perfect series to try next!
What book are you waiting on?
The Obsessive Bookseller 
Wow! For some reason after reading certain reviews of Partials, I was convinced that I wouldn’t like it, but… if it was one of your favorites (and we have a lot of similar tastes, I feel like), then I think I definitely have to give it a chance. *goes to see if it’s available from my library*
I hope you enjoy RUINS when it comes out!!

It blew me away, so I sincerely hope you enjoy it if you decide to pick it up. It had a lot of the same fast-paced elements that I loved about The Fifth Wave (which was one of the best books I read this year thanks to your great recommendation), so maybe it is more up your alley then you thought. :-)

You are doing a really good job of convincing me. So glad you loved The 5th Wave, and if Partials has any of the same elements, I’m sure I’ll love it. Thanks Niki!!

I love the cover! I am so excited for this book! I am not sure why a movie has not been made (probably because Hollywood would ruin it).
