Atlantia (Sneek Peak)

Name: Atlantia
Author: Ally Condie
Review for NetGalley
Rating:  4/5
 
Description: Can you hear Atlantia breathing? For as long as she can remember, Rio has dreamt of the sand and sky Above— of life beyond her underwater city of Atlantia. But in a single moment, all her plans for the future are thwarted when her twin sister, Bay, makes an unexpected decision, stranding Rio Below. Alone, ripped away from the last person who knew Rio’s true self —and the powerful siren voice she has long hidden— she has nothing left to lose. Guided by a dangerous and unlikely mentor, Rio formulates a plan that leads to increasingly treacherous questions about her mother’s death, her own destiny, and the complex system constructed to govern the divide between land and sea. Her life and her city depend on Rio to listen to the voices of the past and to speak long-hidden truths.
 
My Review:
This preview of this book is filled by mystery and gave me more questions. I will be waiting for my library to get the full book and I can't wait. I love the story so far- a girl waiting to go live above to feel sand and breathe real air. But instead she is stuck in Atlantia where people live under the water in a sealed city. Also the poor girl is a siren and has power in her voice to make people do stuff. Very interesting and as I said can't wait to read the rest of this book.
