Milo and Wick are both hackers, so they have a lot in common, and they get along perfectly well. Whereas Griff will go to authorities with problems, Milo will seek revenge. Nevertheless, Wick wonders if Griff loves her for who she is or what he believes she ought to be. I think that she should be more open with Griff, so he can better understand her.ĭespite his flaws, Griff is very protective and supportive of Wick even when he disagrees with her actions. Admittedly, Wick hides many secrets from him. He doesn’t seem to see eye to eye about how Wick is being forced to work for Carson. It is sad to see Griff’s lack of understanding about Wick’s situation. Willing to sacrifice her own freedom to protect the ones she loves, Wick keeps pushing away everyone she cares about. The past always finds a way to catch up to her. Like any other teenager, she struggles with who she wants to be, but her situation is complicated by the situations she deals with. Wick realizes that she can’t live a normal teenage life.


I love how Wick’s internal struggles are deeper explored in this sequel to Find Me. Needless to say, Wick has a lot going on. On top of that, Wick mysteriously receives DVD tapes about her mother, she makes a hacker friend in Milo, and Griff begins to pull away from her.
