The evolution of Mara Dyer is the second book in the Mara Dyer series by Michelle Hodkin, which first book I read last year and loved.

Mara thought she knew was happening to her, she thought she knew what happened the night of the accident with her friends, she though everything was going to be fine until he saw Jude. Jude, her ex boyfriend who was supposed to be dead. The fact that she tries to tell everyone about Jude make her look crazy and with her historic her parents feel the necessity to search for help. What they don’t know is that the help they found might not really be helping Mara.

The evolution of Mara Dyer was a unique book, however I kept getting lost while reading it. First the narrator, Mara is the one who tells us the story, and because she doesn’t know what’s real and what’s not, it makes it difficult to follow. In addition to that there are many names that are close and I kept misplacing Jude and Jamie all the time. The concept although was, in my opinion, extremely unique, but as I couldn’t follow Mara, I felt it wasn’t developed as well as It could be.

To conclude, the evolution of Mara Dyer was a disappointment for me, and even with a unique plot, I had to push myself really hard to finish it.
