With the current hype surrounding the release of the latest X Men film, this comes at the perfect time. Yet Hunting Lila has a refreshing twist. The first part of this book focuses on Lila’s decision to leave her father in England, seek refuge with her ‘marine’ brother in California and his best friend Alex. She’s still dealing with the loss of her mother, the special power she can barely control, and her agonising devotion to Alex. As the plot thickens we discover her brother and Alex are part of a secret government organisation, hunting people like her. People with super powers! It all kicks off; we’re fed action, excitement and mystery as Alderson leads us through Lila’s discovery. But of course, things are never as they seem. This is a great pace setter for a new trilogy, the perfect mix of a lustrous romance and hard hitting action.
