HOT DAMN! Gauntlet owned even harder than Arena! I liked Arena but had a few issues with it. I didn’t love Kali’s spiral into chaos, which was a big part of the book. But Gauntlet was peeerfect. It was all the awesome bits of Arena, […]

Free to Fall by Lauren Miller
Holy mother conspiracy! Free to Fall was riddled with secrets, societies, plots, world domination! It was INSANE! Every time we uncovered one layer of the plot, we learned about something else—a totally new layer. It just kept building and building and building until it was […]
Elusion by Claudia Gabel and Cheryl Klam
What I liked The tech! I loved all the technology talk! It spoke to my inner nerd. There’s a lot of talk about tablets, visors, gadgets, and other elusion equipment. We get a bit of programming talk as well. If you’re not a tech nerd […]
Vortex by S.J. Kincaid
Vortex didn’t quite have the same magic for me that Insignia did. It was still a good book, it just didn’t have me screaming and shrieking like an excited, insane girl. Vortex had a bit of a slower start and I didn’t get fully sucked […]
Spies and Prejudice by Talia Vance
Spies and Prejudice started out really strong for me. I loved Berry’s voice, her name (!!), her whole “spy girl” thing, and her Saint Bernard. The plot was interesting, the best friend character (Mary Chris) was great.. We were rolling! But then my interest dropped […]
The Boyfriend App by Katie Sise
Fluffy, quirky, a bit unrealistic, and totally unexpected—all words that describe The Boyfriend App. None of those are necessarily bad things, but I think they pretty accurately fit this book. There are some very specific things I liked about this book, and some things I […]
The Rules by Stacey Kade
The Rules reads surprisingly like a contemporary book, and that’s one of the things that made me love it so much. Although it does have sci-fi elements, they don’t dominate the story at all. It’s more about evil corporations, first loves, tender and hesitant romance, […]
Unremembered by Jessica Brody
Unremembered has everything I love in a sci-fi: genetics, evil corporations, love, technology, and conspiracy. It’s almost like it was made for me! However, I have to warn you. This story isn’t exactly original. It’s awesome, and I loved it, but it is one of […]
Mind Games by Kiersten White
Mind Games was an okay book, but I was hoping it would be a lot better. The book isn’t nearly as intense or action-packed as I thought it would be. I think the problem with this book is that Fia is actually crazy. I went […]
Beta by Rachel Cohn
Beta was so much darker than I anticipated! If you’re looking for a light, interesting read about clones, look somewhere else. Beta has suicide, heartbreak, murder, drugs, rape, and slavery! WOW! Totally not what I expected, but I ended up loving it. This book is […]
