First off lets get the technicalities out of the way. I was given this book to review through Netgalley. All opinions are my own and I was not compensated in any way for them.That being said here is my review:Chloe has lived a fairly normal life. Like any other normal teenage girl who is straddling the line between adolescence and adulthood Chloe is rebelling against her mother after her fathers death a few months prior. That all changes on the night of her Birthday. Suddenly thrust into the world of her nightmares and chased by creatures called the abandoned, Chloe must forget everything she has ever known and rely on the boy from her dreams to see her to safety.This book is much shorter then I thought it would be but that didn't seem to matter. I was sucked into the book from the very first page. The story itself isn't unique. It's your standard dying race with only one hope for salvation kinda story. I'm sure it might even follow the same premise as dozens before but it wouldn't matter,I would still read this book. I liked the characters and want to learn more about the world they came from and why exactly Chloe was kept in the dark all these years about her true identity. I want to know what happened between Chloes mother Miranda and her Guardian Cass and why things seem so strained between them. Guess I will just have to read more to figure it out.Overall I really did enjoy this short little Novella. It has a promising start and I do look forward to more in the future. I am rating it 4 Stars.
