YA Buddy Readers' Corner ♥ discussion

Julia Phillips’ world is an alternate universe away.

Trapped in a land where government leaders want her dead, Julia is forced to run for her life with Evan and Reece, the two boys who brought her here. They’re on their own in a hostile landscape ruled by scavengers and thieves.

But Evan is battling a deadly infection, and Julia finds herself racing against time as she tries to find the medicine that will save his life. She and Reece find an unlikely ally—Jo, a girl they free after finding her captured in a bandits’ hideout.

As the four travel across the country, Julia has something else to worry about—her memories are slowly being replaced by the Julia of Evan and Reece’s world. Will they find a way to send Julia home before it’s too late? Or will Julia’s body and mind be trapped THERE?>/b>

Abbie and I will be reading this on November 14th. Everybody welcome ☺

Recap of the end of 'Here' (do not read if you haven't read here) (view spoiler)[

Evan goes off to turn himself in to someone for his wrong doings.

Julia is at reece's house, when monica (best friend) turns up, so she lies and says that she's been brought back by cryogenics. then she realises that in this reality Reece and Monica are a couple, and she doesn't like that!

Julia goes out to the car with Monica, only to remember that Monica was p*ssed off about both boys liking Julia, and it was Monica who grabbed the wheel and forced her off the road!

Now monica is going to find the general to tell him about Julia, and Reece is trying to hide Julia.

They go through the woods to the portal. Julia refuses to go without Evan, so leaves the box behind and steps out of its perimeter. The general catches her and asks for the box and she tells him she threw it in the woods. Eventually all 3 of them escape in a truck, and head for the wilds. There is also some mention about searching for Reece's mom. The end! (hide spoiler)]

Thanks! I was trying to find that but it got lost in my messages. :)

Going to read a bit now ☺

I've just been trawling through my sent folder to find it! didn't want to have to read the end of here for a third time!

6% (view spoiler)[ I don't think splitting up is the best idea. (hide spoiler)]

10% (view spoiler)[ second thoughts about hanging around? she didn't want to go with them in the first place! (hide spoiler)]

14% (view spoiler)[ she's remembering the other julia's memories now? (hide spoiler)]

26% (view spoiler)[ maybe it's finally getting interesting. I've been a bit broed up til this point. I think they're getting themselves into trouble at that market though, and why aren't they following the lead they found? I'm not sure they can trust anyone, even Jo. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ I was bored too. I agree, i don't really trust Jo either. (hide spoiler)]

35% (view spoiler)[ "Julia, hold still. I don't want to shoot you"
I don't think I'd trust her! (hide spoiler)]

Sarah wrote: "35% "Julia, hold still. I don't want to shoot you"
I don't think I'd trust her!"

(view spoiler)[ I don't either. She's a bit dodgy. (hide spoiler)]

Talking about being dodgy, so's my internet. :(
It's so slow tonight!

goodreads is really slow. I think there's a lot on people on it at the moment.

49% (view spoiler)[ this crap about her having the other julia's memories is weird, and I don't like it. it just doesn't sit right. (hide spoiler)]

Sarah wrote: "49% [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ It's going to turn into a mess the way it's going. I really hope these memories aren't the start of this Julia turning into the other Julia, because she's in her world. (hide spoiler)]

62% - I loved the last one, but this one just isn't grabbing me. :(

I feel the same.

54% (view spoiler)[ I'm sick of this sharing memories thing. its annoying. (hide spoiler)]

60% (view spoiler)[ how come they're all such good shots? what the hell is evan doing? and Julia is annoying. she was all over reece in her own world, and she liked this reece enough to kiss him, and now all of a sudden it's not her, it's the other julia's memories? what a load of rubbish. (hide spoiler)]

70% (view spoiler)[ he made another box? As if. (hide spoiler)]

70% (view spoiler)[ and of course he hid it in her jumper and the rebels will just hand it to her! (hide spoiler)]

74% (view spoiler)[ what happened to needing a soft spot to go through? (hide spoiler)]

74% (view spoiler)[ it's pretty bad that Julia wasn't immediately thinking about going back for Reece and jo! Considering that she made such a big deal about jo having no family left, she forgot them pretty easily! (hide spoiler)]

75% (view spoiler)[ I wish Evan would stop being so self-sacrificing. It's getting really annoying. (hide spoiler)]

84% (view spoiler)[ and she's still snogging Reece. (hide spoiler)]

92% (view spoiler)[ they haven't considered that what is happening to Julia could happen to Evan too in her dimension. (hide spoiler)]

94% (view spoiler)[ I don't get this crap about having to go to another universe. I'm annoyed. (hide spoiler)]

I finished. not impressed.
