Böcker av Meredith Tate

To save her kidnapped best friend and crush, Zadie must complete an enchanted deadly labyrinth riddled with illusions. Her only hope of survival depends on forming an alliance with the only person who knows the safe path through--a murderous boy she can't trust.

In order for Evelyn to win her freedom, she - along with other 'reformed' prisoners - must pass seven mental, physical, and virtual challenges known as the Freedom Trials. One mistake means execution and, with her reputation for being a snitch, she's already in the cross hairs of her fellow inmates.

Your parents, your sibling, and your Partner, are the ones you love. There should never, ever, be anyone else who comes close to that bond. You have only one best friend, and that is the person youll be marrying someday. We must learn to differentiate the relationships in our lives: the people we love, and the ones we dont.
