Warcross Book 2: Wildcard by Marie Lu

Wildcard (Warcross, #2)
Sequel to Warcross
Emika Chen barely made it out of the Warcross Championships alive. Now that she knows the truth behind Hideo's new NeuroLink algorithm, she can no longer trust the one person she's always looked up to, who she once thought was on her side.

Determined to put a stop to Hideo's grim plans, Emika and the Phoenix Riders band together, only to find a new threat lurking on the neon-lit streets of Tokyo. Someone's put a bounty on Emika's head, and her sole chance for survival lies with Zero and the Blackcoats, his ruthless crew. But Emika soon learns that Zero isn't all that he seems--and his protection comes at a price.

Caught in a web of betrayal, with the future of free will at risk, just how far will Emika go to take down the man she loves?

My Review: 5/5 Stars

A stunning and brilliant sequel to Warcross. Wilcard is everything you could hope for in a sequel and finale and more. Seriously! Picking up a few days after the first one left off, Emika is determined to figure out a way to stop Hideo's plan and save him at the same time. Because she knows that he can still be saved.  As Emika begins to think of a way to save everyone, she finds herself thrust into Zero's world. And what a world that is. So many secrets. So many truths revealed. Just when you think you understand what is happening Lu reveals something major! So many plot twists! The world she built just gets more and more interesting. Pasts are revealed. The character development also is brilliant. I love every single one of her characters and their journeys. If you loved the first book, this finale truly does not disappoint! I feel so lucky to get my hands on an advanced reader copy!!
