Save the Enemy by Arin Greenwood

Synopsis:
Everything has been downhill since Zoey Trask’s mother was murdered in a random mugging. Her younger brother, Ben, is on the autistic spectrum and needs constant supervision. It’s senior year, and she’s the new girl at a weird private school in Old Town Alexandria, VA, full of kids who seem too nice to be true—including a very cute boy named Pete. Aside from half-forgotten martial arts and survivalist skills that her widowed father insistedon teaching her (because that is excellent for her social life), Zoey has nothing to offer Pete or anyone else.  

Then Dad is kidnapped. Zoey suddenly finds herself sole caretaker of a younger brother she barely understands. Worse, Ben seems to hold the key to their father’s disappearance in his Dream Diary, a bizarre journal of names and places Ben claims that their mother shares from beyond the grave. And as if Zoey doesn’t have enough on her plate, there’s Pete, who stubbornly refuses to leave her side.

Relying on the skills she never wanted to learn—Dad might have had his reasons after all—Zoey is plunged into a lethal battle to rescue her father, protect her brother, and determine the identity of her family’s true enemy.

My Rating

-3/5-

I won a advance edition of this book on goodreads to read and review. This book's Expected Publication is November 13th 2013.

I enjoyed this book and thought it was really cool. Zoey's dad gets kidnapped and she tries to take care of her brother while saving him.
This book has a lot of flashbacks and back story which I liked. You got to know a lot about her family and life before hand. Which is good other wise the book would be so short. Its not like all the other books where trying to get who has been kidnapped takes  the whole book and they think everything threw and its all action like and intense. No Zoey is pretty normal and doesn't think like all smart about it. Actually some of the things that go threw her mind while she is trying to save her dad can be pretty funny.

I found this a good book and I'm glad I got the chance to read it. (Even though if I didn't get it in a give away I was gonna find it at my library when it came out cause it just sounded to good not to read.)

Oh I also wonder if there is going to be a second book and how that might possibly turn out. This one had a good ending but there are some possibility's  for a second book I think and that would be cool. If there isn't a second book all well cause this was still a neat book I enjoyed reading. :)
