Author: Rachael Craw
Series: Spark (Book 2) (see book 1 review here)
Rating: 5 billion stars
Genre: Sci-fi Contemporary
Synopsis: It’s hard to remember hating anything as much as I hate Affinity; a bone-deep loathing for the faceless unknown and the concrete walls of my own DNA.
Evie is a Shield: designed to kill in order to protect, and the Affinity Project have finally come for her. But Evie isn’t ready for the sinister organisation to take control of her life, her body, her mind. She isn’t ready to follow their rules about who may live and who must die – not when it condemns the innocent. She has one option: risk losing everything and everyone – including Jamie – and run.
How I got this book: Sent from publisher (because they are THE ACTUAL BEST!!!)
Release Date: September 1, 2015
The Short Version:
WARNING: MANY GIFS FOLLOW
This is also a spoiler free review.
The Long Version:
JUST…JUST…JUST…
So, first Evie was all
And then I was all
Then Rachael Craw was all
And then I was all
And then stuff kept happening like and I was all
And by the end I was all
Stray was a fantastic sequel. It was everything Spark was, and more. Evie and Kitty were as fantastic as ever, Jamie was wonderful, AND we got a look at the inner workings of Affinity.
Basically, this book was just perfect.
In Conclusion:
If you haven’t started reading this series yet then YOU SERIOUSLY NEED TO GET ON THAT. These books are actually amazing and are nowhere NEAR as popular as they need to be.

The Magical Adventures of Cassie the Weird 
This is perfectly hilarious! And your GIF game is so freakishly on point. ❤ ❤ ❤ Thank you, thank you, dear Cassie! Xxx
Why thank you 😊
I am quite proud of it 🙂
Never have a series of GIFS summed up an entire book experience. I cried, I sniggered, I swooned and then I cursed Rachael for leaving me a sobbing mess on the floor. It was absolutely incredible. Let’s read it again. AGAIN!
Yes, let’s read it again and again and again!
YOUR GIFS ARE PERFECT, CASSIE ❤ ❤ ❤ AND YES, STRAY ABSOLUTELY STEPPED IT UP. SO DANG IMPRESSED.
Thank you 🙂
HAHAHA THIS IS THE PERFECT REVIEW. So looking forward to STRAY! Can’t wait till I have a chance to buy/read it. 🙂
Aww, thank you *bows*
And YES! You need to buy/read Stray ASAP!
I actually went to the shops on the 1st and it wasn’t there. =/ Buuut I’ve definitely been keeping my eyes peeled 🙂
Woot! Awesome review, Cassie! I really SHOULD get to this series already. I’m ready for all the Noooooo I’m going to be doing. ;D
YES! YOU NEED TO GET INTO THIS SERIES! THIS SERIES IS THE BEST!
And I promise I’m not being paid to say that 🙂
Cassie you chose those gifs really well! What a brilliant review, it really was an amazing read 🙂
Aww, thank you 🙂
And it was incredible, wasn’t it?
I absolutely LOVED Stray as well Cassie, it was definitely a big improvement on the first book and SO MUCH MORE! Great gif selection Cassie 🙂
I know, right? So amazing.
I was really grateful for the greater insight into the Affinity Project and how Evie and the others kind of .. came to be. I also really like the Proxy! I thought she was such an interesting character to read about.
I am SO keen for the next book, because I wonder how Rachael is going to bring it all together! I am kind of hoping for a huge final showdown between Evie & co. and the Affinity Project 😀
