Renegade (Captive Series) Erica Stevens

My rating: 3 STARS (out of a possible 5)
I eagerly purchased Renegade and was a bit disappointed.  There was a large amount of Captured reviewed and integrated into Renegade, and having read the first book readers didn't need the extensive story line repeated from book one. Throughout the book Erica Stevens seems to get a bit wordy, almost in order to lengthen the book. This book, as with Captured, has very little dialectic, which is disappointing for me; but this may be the style of writing that Ms. Stevens prefers to use.
However, Renegade still holds onto the strong plot and keeps readers curious and wanting more. It is my hope that the 3rd book in the series is less redundant, not excessively wordy but full of dialectic and delves deeper into the plot.
This is another easy read for both tween and Young Adult readers.
