Thunderhead

For YA, this series tackles some pretty deep philosophical questions. I thought this second installment did an excellent job continuing the tropes and themes from the first—especially because it moved away from the romantic aspects of the first book. The addition of a new, deeply complex character helped carry us away from this being a love story and brought us Into more morally exploratory territory. The ending feels like it jumped the shark, but I'm excited to see how the third book goes.
