one like from the book that is puzzling is "the first time I found you guys cooner showed up unannounced." This is puzzling because it never talks about it in the book. when I read this line I didn't know what to think. This shows how she is putting everything together. This line also makes it seem more like it makes you think more and like you're in the book. the puzzling feel of the line makes the book more interesting. the book is like this a lot but this line stood out because it helped put the book together and show how she was remembering her past.

"8 hours and counting,"dad reminded him. i believe that conner wants to keep Anna alive but will kill her if necessary. i think this sentence is important because Anna's dad who isn't really her dad was there to pertect her and kept nagging even though that could have got him shot. although that didn't matter to him as long as he could keep what he knew as his little girl safe.

A part in the book that was puzzling  is when at the end she found out her parents were dead but it is hard to trust that when they said Sura was dead but she was not actually dead. I think that her parents aren't dead just because the Branch keeps so many secrets and tells so many lies that it is hard to trust them or anyone. That is why I think that her parents are still alive and that the branch either has them or they faked there death and have been on the run since the insident at the O'Brien house.

When the branch had all the boys but Nick and Anna and they go and try to save them it was kind of hard to understand because they kill people and you dont really know whats going on so you just like reread it over again to make sure you got it all right because there is so much going on at one time. But after you re-read it a couple times you get that Conner is dead and riley is hurt and they all escape and live happily ever after for what we know so far in the first book cant wait to read the second one and find out what happens next.

In the first half of the book the boys escape. and connor and riley find them when they go and hide. When they finally ditch them they are able to go and find a cabin in michigan. when they hide the branch finds them and they have to run

In the first half of Altered Sam, Trev, Cas, Nick escape the lab when connor tries to take them and Anna goes with them to stay safe and away from Connor. They left and went to a safe house address that her Dad gave to her. When they got there they found a note connecting Sura Turner to Sam. They also found a UV light an immodestly left after a police officer showed up looking for Ms. Turner.

Then they headed to a hotel and Sam had Anna search his tattoo for clues with the UV light. They found coordinates to a cemetery where they found a grave of on of Sam's aliases. They dug it up to find a deed to the house in Michigan. Where they stayed for a while to find clues that decoded into a phone number.

That was Anna what she thought mom Sura Turner, and she remembered nothing about Anna so she thought her memory was wiped. Shortly after she arrived Riley came for the boys and ended up capturing Cas and shooting Sura dead. 

In the first half of the book the boys were locked away but anna and sam were very close .So was anna and trev were close to but some stuff happens at the end of the book that goes more in depth and but back to the first half. They didnt know what was gonna happen but riley and conner showed up unexpected and said he was taking the boys but they were smart and found a way not to get taken. A big thing happened and they all broke out and people got shot encluding annas dad. But the boys took anna and everything was alright until the second half you will have to find out for you self what happens next.
