First of all, the cover is phenomenal. The girl looks like Lily Collins, one of my favorite actors when it comes to young adult movies, so you can imagine how excited I am to read the book. However, the prologue is the main reason why I'm itching to find out what happens next after the first installment. I love books like this, simply because it's totally different from what I'm accustomed to. Not only that, but I am deeply fascinated by wild creatures. Okay, you may think it's weird but I just like it! And the history theme throughout the book is a thumbs up for me.Basically, this story is about Mark and Tatiana. They're both high school seniors, one dubbed as the responsible teen and the other dubbed as the “lizard girl”, simply because she has this eccentric personality that everyone thinks is odd, which is not; she's just different and her mindset is not shallow (no offense). Because they share a common interest, their lives began to intertwine and they're determined to discover the history of their town together; finding out what secret lies underground. I'm not pretty keen on going to unfamiliar places for the sake of adventure but if I have someone like Mark or Tatiana, I'll definitely go with the flow. They're just so cool and like you can really relate to them. By the way, there's a book preview by the end of the book so make sure to read it! It's very good and it makes you want to be Eve's best friend because of her astounding talent.
