It started with a bus crash. Daisy Appleby was a little girl when it happened, and she barely remembers the accident or being brought back to life. At that moment, though, she became one of the first subjects in a covert government program that tests a drug called Revive. Now fifteen, Daisy has died and been Revived five times. Each death means a new name, a new city, and a new identity. The only constant in Daisy’s life is constant change. Then Daisy meets Matt and Audrey McKean, charismatic siblings who quickly become her first real friends. But if she’s ever to have a normal life, Daisy must escape from an experiment that’s much larger—and more sinister—than she ever imagined. From its striking first chapter to its emotionally charged ending, Cat Patrick’s Revived is a riveting story about what happens when life and death collide.

"OMG!!! This book is beautifully written. It nearly made me cry and that is really hard to do with me!!! Daisy has been through so much and this book not only follows her throughout her 5th life but travels back and shows us her past lives as well. I felt such an emotional connection with all of the characters. Maybe not as much with Matt though (The boy Daisy falls for). The twists are so unexpected and Daisy's character is built so amazingly well that the story is really one in a million. Her friend Aubrey was such a lovely character and I loved Mason as the father she never had. Recommended for anyone who is in the mood for an unforgettable, un-putter-down-able read that is full of joy, hope, despair, suspense and finding yourself in life."

" I liked this book just fine. I think I would have liked it a bit better had I read it myself. This story was different than I expected it to be. The book was fine and really picked up in the last few chapters and I was enthralled. All in all it was good but I am glad I got it from the library. "
— Gretchen, 2/12/2014" this had an awesome love story, but there honestly could have been more action in some of the scenes... "
— Ayla, 2/10/2014" At first when I started reading this book it kept me interested, but as I read more into it it lost me. I mean sure daisy dying and being revived five times seemed intriguing to me and her fake parents who are actually agents seemed to keep me reading and that is why I kept reading even though I did not really like her and matt's relationship. the reason why i did not like their relationship is because it seemed to me their relationship wasn't that great it just seemed so unrealistic and forced but I guess that's how most romance YA books are. other than that I thought it was a pretty good book that's why I gave it 3 stars "
— Betsy, 1/26/2014" Nice YA book "
— Jennifer, 12/19/2013" I was instantly captured by the concept of this book from simply reading the blurb and I was not disappointed when I finished this book. Absolutely loved it! The plot was fast paced which I liked, only problem is there's no sequel. Well none that I've heard of anyways. "
— Jessica, 11/22/2013" This book was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Really, really well written, I coudn't put it down! One of the sweetest and saddess books i have read I cried so hard and I never cry in books! Massive thumbs up for Cat Patrick!!!! "
— K8, 10/23/2013" I think that this book should have had a sequel. There was so much more that could have been written about. A lot of young adult series should have stopped at one book, but this could have gone on. The plot had some surprising twists that I didn't expect. Well written young adult dystopian novel. "
— Tammy, 10/22/2013" Engaging but poorly edited. "
— Manda, 10/16/2013" Great characters, great plot, very easy to read. I started it in the evening and couldn't put it down until it was finished! "
— Melissa, 8/28/2013" I found this book really compelling. It is a great premise and was really well executed! I love Cat Patrick, she writes great books! The characters are relatable and easy to get attached to... Audrey just broke my heart, she was lovely! Loved it! "
— Claire, 5/31/2013" Bit unbelievable, but well told and a good read "
— Marg, 4/16/2013" A great book, but it was really sad. "
— Emma, 4/10/2013" Wow! I really liked this one a lot and gobbled it up quickly. Great writing style and skills. Solid characters. Interesting, creative plot. And it all hung together nicely from beginning to end--no gaps or boo boos. Definitely going to look for her other book, "Forgotten". "
— Cindy, 12/13/2012" AMAAAAAZING, i loved this book so much, i coudn't out it down "
— Victoria, 9/16/2012" This book was okay. I didn't really like the story line, but the characters and romance were both pretty good. I read it in one day, so it kept my attention, but overall it was pretty average. "
