A Hero For Wondla by Tony Diterlizzi

If you didn't read the first book of this series, you most probably will have no idea what I'm going on about. So read the first book. And if you DID read the first book, awesome! I'll try my utmost best not to be a spoiler. ;)
Brief overview of what happened in the first book for those of you who were too lazy to read the first one:
A 12-year-old girl by the name of Eva Nine lives on a strange planet with no other human being than herself and a robot for a mother. Throughout the book, a whole lot of disasters occur and basically at the end Eva is left with a alien type friend and a dead Muthr. Add meeting a guy named Hailey who is actually human!

In the second book of this compelling series, Hailey Turner, the guy Eva thought was a friend, unexpectedly takes a 180 degrees turn leaves Eva in a human inhabited city. Eva searches for her friendly alien friend, Roverder Kitt (preferably known by Eva as Rovee) however fails to find him through flow of events that are flooding Eva's life. To make things even more crazy, Eva meets her "sister", Eva Eight. Eva Eight was born in the same sanctuary as Eva, and was brought up by the same Muthr until she was whisked away to the city. Apparently Eight was waiting for Nine the whole while and desires to escape back to the other world with her, since the human world did not meet Eva's anticipations. Eva is torn between friends and her sister, and if you read the book, you might well discover Eva's choice.

This book is filled with thrillers and shivers, so I highly suggest reading it....NOW! (okay, maybe you can put it on hold if you can't get it immediately :) Five stars hands down!!
