MILA 2.0: Renegade Audiobook Summary

Debra Driza’s MILA 2.0 is the first book in a gripping Bourne Identity-style trilogy about a girl who discovers she is actually an android.

Mila was never supposed to remember her past, or know what lurked beneath her synthetic skin. She was never meant to learn that she was “born” in a secret computer science lab and programmed with superhuman skills. But when a group of hooded men show up on her doorstep, hoping to strip her of her advanced technology, she has no choice but to run for her life. In every direction there are dangerous people, hunting her down. They will do whatever it takes to capture Mila, including hurting the people she cares about most.

Filled with secrets, action, and even romance, MILA 2.0 is perfect for readers who love sci-fi thrillers like the Partials series and I Am Number Four.

Originally posted at City of BooksRenegade is just as captivating as its predecessor! I was afraid there would be some middle-book syndrome in here, but there most definitely isn't. It's been a while since my last 5-star read, and I'm glad Renegade got me back on track.Mila is on the run with Hunter, desperately trying to find Richard Grady, the man her mother told her to find in her dying breath. Hunter doesn't know anything about who Mila really is, and she intends to keep it that way. But when they encounter danger at almost every turn, Mila realizes she doesn't know Hunter as well as she'd like. And as doubt begins to creep in, the danger intensifies. Secrets are revealed, and new perspectives are brought in. Mila needs to figure out who to trust before everything her mother sacrificed turns out to be in vain.Mila's just lost the one person she always knew she could trust - her mother, also known as Dr. Laurent, a scientist who used to work for Holland, the man Mila hates with a burning passion. Now that she's left alone, Mila's glad to have Hunter with her. I loved that Mila really embraces her emotions in this book. No longer is she monitored by Holland, so she's free to feel however she wants to. It's fascinating to think that Mila is an android, and yet she's so humane. She has a strong set of morals, and she's exactly like a teenage girl. I've always thought of her that way. While reading, that fact is easy to escape my mind - that Mila's an android.In this book, we get to know more about the other organization that wants Mila - the Vita Obscura. There are quite a few twists concerning them, as well as how they came about. Lines between right and wrong are blurred, and things get really intense. Mila gets a few shocks of her own, finding out a lot more about her identity and the man she thought was her father.There's finally some romance between Mila and Hunter! I had to wait quite a while for it in this book too, though. But I'm glad there was finally something. I think they're really good together, and I just wish there was mutual trust between them earlier on. Mila constantly lying to Hunter obviously isn't going to end well. Especially when she starts doubting his intentions. But Hunter does have connections that are quite shocking, and he's pulled into Mila's world because of them. He's still quite confused about everything towards the end, and really hot and cold towards Mila. I'm hoping they actually fully trust each other in the next book. I'm also hoping we get to see more of Lucas, since he was barely in this one at all. He's one character I'm dying to know more about, and he deserves a great story because of his compassion towards Mila in the previous book and the fact that he saved her and her mom.There's a significant amount of betrayal in Renegade as well, and a lot of twists I didn't see coming. Especially towards the end. And gosh, the cliffhanger ending! It's killing me. I'm so desperate for the finale now, since I have no doubt at all it will blow me away just like these two books did. Bottom line, I adored this sequel. This is how it's done! Everything was just perfect and I honestly can't think of any issues I had with it at all. Which will tell you how much I loved it.*Thank you to HarperCollins for providing me with an eARC for review*

Initial Thoughts: This was a fun "Bio-Daddy Road Trip" story as Mila and Hunter are forced to run from Holland's goons and at the same time, evade the Vita Obscura. This installment is action-packed, full of chase scenes and some crazy technology. Mila shines in this book, learning more about her android abilities yet struggling with her human emotions. Nicely done. The Review:MILA 2.0 Renegade takes off right where the first book left off. Hunter and Mila are hiding out in Virginia Beach. Hunter is oblivious to the fact that Mila is an android. Mila hesitates to tell him the truth because she has feelings for him. She refuses to let Hunter go even though he would be safer away from Mila. The two embark on the “Bio-Daddy Road Trip” in an effort to find Hunter’s biological father and Mila’s creator. I think what I enjoyed about this book was Mila’s character. At times, I was reminded of Data from Star Trek, especially in Mila’s wish to become more human. I liked how she was at odds with her feelings, wondering if it was fair to like Hunter when she could not offer him a normal relationship. Mila struggles with her feelings and emotions, much like a regular teenager, except in her case, she has super strength, defense, and computing skills. As Mila’s abilities manifested, I liked watching how in awe she was of her android self. Too bad she never had a user’s manual. MILA 2.0: Renegade is chock full of action, chase scenes, explosions, and more. It would certainly keep many young adult readers’ attention. In fact, this would probably make an awesome TV series. And that ending! I can’t wait for the next book. For optimal reading enjoyment be sure to read the books in order.Thank you to Edelweiss and Katherine Tegan Books for a review copy of this book.Review posted on Badass Book Reviews. Check it out!

I really liked the whole concept and idea behind MILA, an android girl with real human emotions and memories that can't be explained and even though I didn't totally fall in love with the book, I liked it enough to know that I wanted to continue on with the series.I had so many questions about V.O. that I needed answered, not to mention about Hunter. Was he good, was he bad?> Was he everything he appeared to be?Yep, lots of questions and I was really hoping I would get a lot of them, if not all of them, answered in this second installment. And oh boy did I!I don’t' even know what to say in fear that I will spoil something somehow so I am going to try and leave this as simple as I possibly can and spoiler free.This one started right off where the first one ended, with Mila calling Hunter and asking him to meet her. While it started there, it certainly didn't end there. From the first chapter there are still so many questions, so much suspicion and uncertainly about Mila herself, her mom, the V.O. and of course about Hunter not to mention the action starts pretty quickly with fights, dangers, and Mila constantly needing to be on guard, all while trying to remain as human as she feels. There is a lot that goes on and yet still a lot left to be done. Yes we get answers, a lot in fact but those answers just cause new questions to come out and with the new questions you once again have to start questioning everyone around Mila. Who are the bad guys, who can she trust and most of all, what in the heck is she exactly and why...well, there are a whole lot of why's in there.I actually really enjoyed this. Once again, more than I thought I would. I am actually really really curious what the author is going to do in the next book. How she is going to explain everything, handle everything and of course, end everything. Who will still be left standing and what it will all mean to Mila in the end.I will definitely be there reading right along with everyone else that has tried this series and was surprised by it because I just have to know how it all plays out and goes down.

Until she falls off the back of a pickup truck in book one of this series, leaking some kind of machine fluid instead of bleeding, Mila has no idea that the gaps in her memory and the overprotective tendencies of her mother are clues to her real nature. Which is android--and when she finds out she is just as horrified as she thinks everyone else will be. As this second book opens Mila has escaped from the military facility that wants to use her as a weapon, the place where she was tortured and forced to fight her evil look-a-like twin android sister, but the woman she knows as her mother is now dead and Mila is left with only cryptic clues about her past, the obviously false childhood memories that keep surfacing, and who she should go to for help. So Mila calls on Hunter, the guy she liked before she discovered she isn’t an average teenage girl and the guy she still gets heart palpitations around even though she knows she’s a machine, doesn’t have an actual heart, and what’s she doing with emotions anyway. Without updating Hunter about what she now knows about herself and her situation, Mila makes up a story that convinces him to road-trip with her so she stay one step ahead of the people trying to recapture her while trying to make contact with someone who can explain things. The fast action excitement of the plot and the exciting discoveries Mila keeps making about her useful android abilities get a little bogged down by Mila’s predictable and somewhat excessive internal agonizing about keeping her secret from Hunter, though generally I’m greatly enjoying the friction created between Mila’s human and machine sides. Author Debra Driza smoothly worked review information into the first chapters of Renegade, a big help for readers like me who have had a time gap since reading Mila 2.0. Along with Mila we learn more about who/what she is in this second book, and we meet some of the key people from her past--though it’s not always clear who can be trusted. There is still a lot of story left to tell, and I look forward to reading the next book.

WTF Are You Reading?

The second round of the MILA saga is proving to be just as engaging as the first, but not for all of the reasons that one would assume. The Hunter DilimaWhile the love interest between these two was very sweet and acted as a great counter balance for the wild plot twists and action of the first read; the continuation of said romance in the second novel caused MILA to spend an inordinate amount of time gushing about the effect of his smile on her heart rate and such, instead of doing her badass android thing for the first third of the book.Mercifully, things picked up with the introduction of MILA 3 into the mix, somewhere around the 2/3 mark.The book really got good when MILA found her father, and learned the history that is but isn't hers.Confused yet?Yes?O.K. Great!Plot twist in 3...2...1...This is where things go from bad to Holland.As in, General Holland.Or at least his arch nemesis, and leader of the dreaded Vita Obscura.Which is really just Holland run by a woman with a grudge, smoother tactics, and a Robin Hood complex.All in all this is a very good second book. Miss Driza went to great lengths to insure that her plot line remained uncluttered and highly unpredictable.

If you're looking for a heart pounding, action packed, and emotional story you won't be disappointed with Renegade the sophomore follow up novel to Mila 2.0. This book was literally amazing, I seriously could not put it down. There were so many feels and emotions going through me as I sat mesmorized once again by this wickedly fantastically talented author, who has definitely become a favorite of mine. There are so many electrifying twists and turns, Renegade will leave you breathless and aching with anticipation. The stakes are raised higher in this book, completely jam packed with so much more danger and mystery. Trust is something that is not easily given, because the risks are way too high for Mila to risk her life. There is absolutely no suffering from second book syndrome, when it comes to this highly anticipated novel. Mila, Hunter, and most of our favorite characters are back with even more mystery and suspense, intrigue and heart throbbing action that will blow your socks off. I absolutely loved reading this book, because the story just kept building and building, and you never know what was going to happen next until it did. It's pretty rare that I find a book that really suck me into the world that it's created and keep me that invested in it. Debra Driza is a phenomenal author who has immense talented and a wonderful wealth of creative imagination. Hunter was a rather enjoyable character with questionable motives that Mila found hard to trust with her secret, because it would endanger her very life so much. I love that he was written in such a way where he was realistically flawed and also easy to connect with. Mila was stronger than ever in this one, I felt so much for her as she was questioning her own humanity at the same time, while trying to embrace her android abilities. My connection to her only grew stronger over the course of the book and I couldn't help but feel so many things for her. This book raises so many questions that it will literally leave your head spinning, trying to piece it all together. You're just, you're really not going to want to miss out on this book, because it was probably the best one written and there's still more to come.

"His words awakened a startling realization. Not just love - pain. Not just join - fear. In order to have the good,  you had to also take the bad. , because without the lows, the highs wouldn't,  couldn't,  exist. All emotions were crucial to living. All of them. "Mila 2.04.5 StarsThis sequel is one of those books when you find the second book better than the first,  this has been happening frequently with me. I found the first book okay but that was all, this one is way better.  The writing and vocabulary is better, the development of the story, the pace, everything happens on the right moment.  What almost surprised me, I say almost because I still had a little suspicion on my gut, it was the first twist,  it was something that could happen,  a "reasonable" twist, the one you can find an explanation for it,  but then there is another one,  the real one. I really enjoyed reading Mila 2.0, once you pick up the pace you don't want to stop. One thing didn't make much sense to me since Mila 2.0 disposed and knew how dangerous Mila 3.0 was because her lack of feelings I found really odd that she could even consider agree to an upgrade that would lead her to shut down some of her emotions even when she found many reasons to do it she also knew how dangerous that could be, that's the reason of 4.5 instead of 5 stars. The end per si was also good, left enough to write a third book since we don't really know what happened on the last 2 days of Mila's life and people around her. Great book,  Ill definitely read the next.

To view on Rainy Day's Books, Video Games and Other Writings: https://rainyday.blog/2018/02/16/book...While I wasn’t completely sure what to make of MILA 2.0 when I started reading it, I know for sure that I enjoyed reading Renegade immensely. It was action packed, suspenseful, and ended with me wanting to find out more. Continuing where MILA 2.0 left off, Renegade shows us the journey Mila went on with Hunter to find out more about who she really is. But in doing so, her relationship with Hunter takes a turn for the dangerous as she contemplates whether she really can trust him with the truth or not.I enjoyed Renegade more than its predecessor because the beginning didn’t start off quite as slow. You have Hunter and Mila interacting with each other, trying to find out what they’re going to do now. While I was frustrated with Mila for not telling Hunter the truth and hated that she kept bringing it up, I was fascinated by their journey into learning more about Mila’s identity. She learned more about who she is in this book, and I felt like it really explained everything that happened up to this point in the story. It explained why she was having memory flashbacks of a life she never truly lived, but also explained why even though she’s an android she has such strong emotions. I enjoyed this book better because I felt like I understood Mila better than before.I also found this story to be more action packed, which helped too. Because while Mila is with Hunter, she’s still on the run from General Holland so she has to be careful who she trusts. So when she finds Grady, she starts becoming weary of the person she’s traveling with. She starts questioning her decisions and comes up with a plan for what to do next. While I was annoyed that she was continuously questioning Hunter’s motives throughout, I also understood her reasoning for it. I understood because I honestly didn’t understand why she even brought Hunter into this situation to begin with. Yes, he was one of the few people she felt like she could trust in Clearwater, but she barely knew him.I also enjoyed finally being introduced to the leader of the Vita Obscura. I like how Driza made it seem like she was trustworthy at first, though I was suspicious of her character immediately. She just seemed too nice and it made me very weary of her character. It wasn’t until we see Mila make that terrible decision that her true nature really came out. While I completely understand her part in the story, it really put a twist in the story that I never saw coming.However, there are some criticisms I do have with Renegade that I didn’t have with MILA 2.0. For starters, while I do overall like her connection with Hunter better than before (despite it being instant love), I found it to be too convenient that his family actually has a role in the story. I also hated that he decided to just come along with her on this trip without fully questioning what was going on and why she’d reached out to him. I also didn’t really understand why she wanted him around knowing that she was putting him in serious danger. I get she really likes him, but I feel like he shouldn’t have really been given a role in this story. Or that if she did talk to him it wasn’t until later after the events that transpired. Don’t get me wrong, I really do like his character and I do understand why he’s in the story. But I don’t know, I feel like romance shouldn’t even really be in this trilogy. And there’s a possibility that this trilogy will become a love triangle, which is something else I’m truly starting to hate in young adult novels. It’s starting to become a cliché in young adult literature for the female character to have two boys fighting for her affections, and I’m really starting to hate it because it’s very unrealistic.But anyway, enough of that. Another part of the story I didn’t particularly like is when the Vita Obscura leader’s plans are finally revealed through the decision Mila makes. I’m not going to go too much into detail about this part of the story because I want to try the best I can not to spoil it. But basically, Mila makes a decision for herself that doesn’t go particularly well. It actually results in her briefly becoming less human and more android, which in turn leads to a discovery none of us find out about until the end of the story. In this part of the story, Mila makes terrible decisions that affect the lives of others. She also briefly looses the part of herself that made me like her character in order to not deal with the hurt and pain she’s experiencing. I hate that she made this decision because while I do completely understand why she did it, I knew something bad was going to come from it. I also knew that the end result of this decision would be her character being less human and making decisions she wouldn’t make herself. While I enjoyed seeing more of her android side in this moment, I overall hated this part of the story because she did something she would’ve never done. And that frustrated me because her character has been through a lot already and I feel like she didn’t deserve this.However, despite these two parts of the story, I overall enjoyed reading Renegade. I enjoyed reading this book because I learned the truth about Mila’s identity, the story was more action packed and fast paced, and we finally were introduced to the Vita Obscura and found out why their leader was interested in Mila. I really can’t wait to finish reading the final book in the trilogy Redemption to find out what happens next to Mila.
