Forced on the run with handsome, enigmatic woodsman Luke, Avie struggles when every turn becomes a choice between keeping the two of them alive or completing their mission.

* ARC provided by Publisher in exchange for a fair and honest review *

A Girl Undone is the second book and final book in Catherine Linka’s A Girl Called Fearless series and the first book I’ve read by the author. From what I can tell, this book picks up directly after the events of the first book, so this starts in the aftermath of previous trouble and just before more trouble starts. The book is extremely engaging and magnetic, with a heroine who is fighting with all she has, and all she is, to do what’s right and to survive in a male dominated new world.

I enjoyed this book a lot. Despite not having read A Girl Called Fearless, I was able to follow along and enjoy A Girl Undone, though I will admit that I do want to go back and read the first book just so I can get the full scope of what the characters have experienced previously. Overall, though, I found this story to be both compelling and entertaining. It’s easy to follow, steadily-paced, and the characters are both dynamic and likable, which makes it almost impossible for readers not to become invested in them or their story’s journey.

If you haven’t read A Girl Undone and you love YA dystopian and YA mystery-thrillers, I highly recommend checking this book out. It’s a great read, an excellent thriller, and has an important message for all those who feel as if their voice isn’t being heard or that we, as a society, are losing more and more of our rights to speak, and to live.
