Don't Turn Around reviewed by: Portia Rockers

                                        


Nao is sixteen and is a victim of the system. She is always changing foster parents growing up, along the way she becomes great with computer hacking. To get out of the system she creates a fake foster family, and makes a lot of money under her fake foster fathers name. She is now living in an apartment off the grid. Because no one knows about her and pays attentions she is targeted by a group that performs illegal medical experiments on human subject. She wakes up with a huge scar on her chest and no memory of how she got there. Can she escape? And what happened to her apartment and money? Peter is a rich kid that is not really interested in anything but his website he created for his group of hacktivists. But when his house gets broken into by armed men he gets scared but interested, can Peter and Nao helpeach other? 

Don't turn around is written in dual perspective, which I happened to find interesting. I gave this book four stars because in the book Nao is suppose to be sixteen but her personality was like she was in her mid 20s. I found the plot really interesting, it was full of action and leaves you wanting more. One thing I did not like about the book was that it seemed like the author wanted to force romance between the two main characters, when it was clear they did not trust each other. The ending of the book isn't really satisfying, nothing gets resolved but it's not a cliffhanger. It is part of a trilogy so I will want to read the next books to see what happens. I would suggest this book to anyone who likes adventure and thrilling books.
