The setting of a world run by superheroes is still an intriguing one and the characters have strong promise and continue to develop well, but I feel like the plot has gotten weaker as it relies on more and more improbable plot devices to artificially inflate the drama. As much as I enjoy Nova's character, how many cases of mistaken identity, coincidence, and deus ex machina can you cram into one book? Is it really necessary to equally ramp up the hate for a character's alter ego in direct proportion to falling in love with their secret identity?

This was absolutely fantastic and wonderful. A great sequel! I just love all of these characters so much and I love how back and forth it is between who you are routing for. Right and wrong are blurred and questioned and I love it! Can't wait for the next one. Marissa Meyer never disappoints.

One of my favorite books last year was Renegades. I'm always excited for more superhero material, so I couldn't wait for Archenemies. I wasn't disappointed.Nova is one of my favorite protagonists I've read in a while. I love how resourceful she is, yet insecure when it comes to feelings. Adrian is also compelling as he wrestles with the concepts of the Renegades and the failings of some of their ideas.The plot is gripping and the pace is great. I didn't have a bunch of time to read, but still made it through in a week. Now I'm waiting on pins and needles for book 3.

I am in love. This book is thrilling, captivating, and most importantly, full of romance and suspense. Read the whole thing in a day and after reading it I had so many emotions. An absolutely fantastic book that everyone should read! (After the first book of course!)

I have been a Marissa Meyer fan ever since I stumbled upon Cinder, and I am always amazed by the tales she tells! Arch-Enemies, and the whole Renegades Trilogy, is no exception!The romance between Nova and Adrian is one of those that makes your heart yearn for them, cheering for them, and begging for them to make the right choice, and to just finally admit their feelings for each other!The future of superheroes that Meyer weaves is, while dark, so intriguing, and one that makes you crave more and more! I finished this book in less than a week, and I couldn't put it down!Thanks for another amazing book, Marissa! Can't wait until we see how it ends next year!
