Life is about perspective. The idea of spending your entire life stuck in a spaceship (granted a really really big one) can be either a life doomed to claustrophobia and dreams of the outside, or it can feel safe, like the only home you have ever known. Perspective can mean the difference between contentment and a desire to find anyway to change. In Across the Universe, Elder and Amy couldn't be more different if they tried: one born on the ship and meant to lead, and one born centuries earlier on earth and just included to pacify her important parents. But Amy's removal from the frozen state sent everything on ship Godspeed hurtling down a new path. Now, in Beth Revis' sequel A Million Suns, we find out just how far off the beaten path the ship has gone.After learning about the problems with the ship and the decades of lies that have been passed around, Elder is determined to fin out just how far off course the ship has been blown from finding their new planet. He isn't prepared to learn the ship actually hasn't moved for years. Now that he has removed the sedative from the ship's system, all the citizens of Godspeed are less like zombies, able to think for themselves, and ready to stage a mutiny. Elder wasn't ready to take the leader's position in the first place, but he certainly wasn't ready to be tested so quickly. Now he must find a way to keep the ship together and still find the planet they were supposed to reach decades ago.Amy knows she may never see her parents again since she was unfrozen and they must stay frozen until the ship lands. She barely survived Orion's crazed attacks, but with him safely frozen, she doesn't have to worry about him anymore...

Spoiler free for the series.I had this book on my shelf for almost a year. That's just ridiculous. But I'm kind of glad I waited because now I can dive straight into the next one to see what happens next cause I gotta say, I'm dying of curiosity!This is a series that really gets me emotionally involved. I can imagine this happening, people put into space to land on a far off planet generations later. I also can see the affect it would have on people. There are good and bad on earth, of course it's going to be the same in space on a ship with thousands of people. But the damage one person can do can be life or death for everyone.This book is filled with clues about something that Elder and Amy need to discover. As they are on this quest to figure out this big secret someone is sabotaging things and people are going crazy. Elder has a lot to deal with and Amy is just determined to find a solution to things, to figure out how to get them out of there. I was completely immersed in this book as I read and got frustrated when I was interrupted. I had no idea what was going on, what the big secret was and how things would go. I also was emotionally involved because we have people freaking out and Elder has to deal with so much. I kept thinking of what he should be doing, to get these people to listen to him and stop being so frexing STUPID! This was all good though, I love when I get that involved.This book was really easy for me to read and I was totally involved and entertained but I can't say it's a favorite. I don't love the characters, I like them fine, but they don't really WOW me. But because the whole thing with the plot and the world is SO great it's not really a huge issue.
