  I never bought the premise or understood it beyond: “that’s how it is written in the book so suck it up”.

  Again, this is the sort of book that has a lot of potential, but things went awry somewhere down the line...

  Dark and ridiculous by turns, there isn't much fresh material here.

• Chicks with Crossbows | 30 Jun 2012

  It’s more realistic that so many dystopian books because it deals with the cataclysmic even and the direct aftermath.

  On the surface Struck is an action packed doomsday story, but it’s got an underlying theme of religious brainwashing that I absolutely loved.

  An interesting take on a paranormal dystopian, but I just wish that there wasn't that hint of insta-love going on...

  The reason why I found this difficult to read was because it kept referencing the apocalyptic cliches.

  I found it a little lackluster, the plot is fairly easy to figure out and the ending all too neatly wrapped up.

  It was ridiculously engaging and actually taught me quite a bit about storms and lightning and natural disasters.

  Characterization is great for the Price family, the writing is clean and nuanced with occasional appearances of something more lyrical.

  The main story was very interesting and I truly wanted to love it, but as I couldn’t really connect to the characters...

  This book didn’t grab me at all, with there being little depth or development to the main character and a weak plot resolution.

  The characters are good, the writing's brilliant, the world building is original and refreshing, and it hooks you in at the very first page and finishes with a bang.

  Jennifer Bosworth's writing in Struck allows you to easily follow the action, connect with the main characters, and it paints a picture that allows you to easily visualize Mia's world.

  Fiercely intense, the action pummels the reader’s mind without revealing the truth that Mia uncovers in the last few pages.

  Struck is a thrilling dystopian with an intricate idea, an unforgettable heroine, an electric (funny, I am) romance, and an ending that just begs for a sequel!
