It didn’t end on a cliffhanger (sort of!), but I’m still left wanting. Truthfully, I’m not even sure I can form coherent words for how amazing and mind-blowing this book is. I admired Hideo’s dedication and determination to have accomplished so much at a young age. I’m such a sucker for backstory, so Emika and Hideo’s tugged at my heartstrings. She struggles letting people inside, but when she does, I don’t think she regrets it (okay, maybe once, but I can’t say anything about this because of spoilers).

I am living for the sequel! Warcross has snatched a spot as one of my top favorite books published in 2017! Emika Chen is a fantastic main character. But soon her investigation uncovers a sinister plot, with major consequences for the entire Warcross empire.” With no time to lose, Emika’s whisked off to Tokyo and thrust into a world of fame and fortune that she’s only dreamed of. He needs a spy on the inside of this year’s tournament in order to uncover a security problem. Needing to make some quick cash, Emika takes a risk and hacks into the opening game of the international Warcross Championships-only to accidentally glitch herself into the action and become an overnight sensation.Ĭonvinced she’s going to be arrested, Emika is shocked when instead she gets a call from the game’s creator, the elusive young billionaire Hideo Tanaka, with an irresistible offer. But the bounty hunting world is a competitive one, and survival has not been easy. Struggling to make ends meet, teenage hacker Emika Chen works as a bounty hunter, tracking down players who bet on the game illegally.

The obsession started ten years ago and its fan base now spans the globe, some eager to escape from reality and others hoping to make a profit.

Synopsis: (from Goodreads) “For the millions who log in every day, Warcross isn’t just a game-it’s a way of life. (Yes, I read The Young Elites trilogy first.) So when I first heard about Warcross, I did a little happy dance–happiness for my favorite author releasing another book and that it would definitely make my gamer girl heart very happy. Where do I even begin? Marie Lu solidified her place as one of my auto-buy authors when I finished Champion.
