"Purpose " is a YA scifi story. We follow Jax and Liam two sixteen year olds. Jax never felt like he fit in with the other teenagers but when a new shy kid, Liam, starts at his school he finally makes a true friend, someone he can relate with. The two teenagers eventually fall in love but they go through hell before they finally get their happily ever after.
The book had me hooked form the prologue. It was a flashforward and a very powerful one. I couldn't wait to find out how Jax ended up in such a horrible situation. The pacing of the book was great and the author kept my attention from the beginning until the end.
Jax and Liam were both absolutely precious and I wanted to protect them at all costs. They were so sweet together. And I loved the ace representation.
In this world some people have superpowers and a lot of the situations they faced reminded of how the Xmen were treated and I really really love the Xmen so this book was just perfect for me.
I enjoyed it very very much. It was an amazing coming of age story and I highly recommend it.
