It's my senior year in college and I nee to focus on Senior Project, so I will do shorter reviews mostly.<br />

“For too long, Violet and the people of the outer circles of the Lone City have
lived in service to the royalty of the Jewel. But now the secret society known
as the Black Key is preparing to seize power.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">And
while Violet knows she is at the center of this rebellion, she has a more
personal stake in it—her sister, Hazel, has been taken by the Duchess of the
Lake. Now, after fighting so hard to escape the Jewel, Violet must do
everything in her power to return to save not only Hazel, but the future of the
Lone City.”</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Black Key is the epic finale to the Lone
City trilogy. What started in The Jewel and continued in the White Rose now
comes to a close. If you have not read The Jewel, I recommend the series to
people who like YA Dystopias and Fantasy. Fans of The Selection by Kiera Cass,
Crewel by Gennifer Albin, Divergent by Veronica Roth, Bumped by Megan
McCafferty, The Red Queen by Victoria Avyard, The Winner’s Curse by Marie
Rutkoski, A Shadow Bright and Burning by Jessica Cluess, Dorothy Must Die by
Danielle Paige, Pawn by Aimee Carter, Defiance by C.J. Redwine and Incarnate by
Jodi Meadows.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">When Violet
finds out that the Duchess of the Lake kidnapped her sister Hazel to replace
her as surrogate, Violet comes up with a plan to disguise herself as a
lady-in-waiting to help rescue her sister. The rebel group known as the Black
Key has a greater plan in store and the big day in the next Auction Day and
Violet keeps on eye on her sister and what’s going on in the palace while she
plays the new lady-in-waiting for Coral, Garnet’s new wife. Garnet is part of
the plan and “hires” Violet for Coral, even thought his mother has denied any
lady-in-waiting that Coral selected. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Meanwhile Ash
Lockwood, Violet’s love-interest in the story and former companion (like a male
escort) of Carnelian (Garnet’s cousin), is gathering other companions to help
with the cause of the Back Key. Lucien, a male lady-in-waiting for the
Electress, also plays a huge role in all this since he’s the basically the
brains of the whole operation. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I really
enjoyed this finale. My only complaint is there isn’t enough romance in it, but
the awesome elemental magic abilities make for it. I really enjoy dystopian and
fantasy stories that have a character in disguise for some sort of revolution.
This happens in Pawn by Aimee Carter, The Red Queen by Victoria Avyard and
Dorothy Must Die by Danielle Paige. It’s not exactly royal-espionage, but in
this one it felt like it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I loved
elemental powers. It reminds me of the show W.I.T.C.H. with the guardians, and
a book I recently read, A Shadow Bright and Burning by Jessica Cluess. Violet
went from a poor surrogate to a bad-A Paladin! She used the Auguries to change
her hair from black to blond and eye from violet to green, which was painful
for her, but she did it for her sister. She was like Katniss fighting the
Royals instead of the Capital. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I really adored
the world building of this series. The Lone city has five circles, kind of like
a Caste system in the Selection series, from highest to lowest: The Jewel, The
Bank, The Smoke, The Farm, and the Marsh. There’s certain naming conventions I
noticed for people from each place. The Jewel’s Royals are named after
gemstones and mineral, The Bank seemed to be luxurious items, The Smoke were
named after periodic table elements and industrial materials, The Farm people
were named after plants and animal, and the Marsh people were named after color,
for attributes like hair, eyes and skin. The Marsh names was something that
took a while to figure out. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">An overall
great finale. I will miss the series and I hope to read what Amy Ewings writes
next: The Cerulean (a space fantasy book?).<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In
the badlands, Nina, Mellie, and Finn, the fugitive and rogue exorcist who saved
her life, find allies in a group of freedom fighters. They also face a new
threat: Pandemonia, a city full of demons. But this fresh new hell is the least
of Nina’s worries. The well of souls ran dry more than a century ago, drained
by the demons secretly living among humans, and without a donor soul, Mellie’s
child will die within hours of its birth.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Flame Never Dies is the sequel to The
Stars Never Rise. The author had said this is a duology, so I guess this was
the final book. I feel like this series could have been longer. The author’s
Soul Screamers series lasted seven books, but a trilogy would have been nice at
least. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you have not
read this series I recommend it to those who enjoyed The Demon Trapper’s
Daughter series, Incarnate by Jodi Meadows, Unbreakable by Kami Garcia and
urban fantasy books. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It’s written in
first person point of view and the main character Nina Kane is a natural born
exorcist. She can send demons back to Hell with the holy fire she can conjure
from her hands. Demon eat the souls of those they posses and when exorcised the
host body dies because there is nothing to occupy the body and there’s a bid
burning hole in the chest. If a demon is in a body too long it starts to
degenerate and become twisted. If you have not read the first book, then
spoilers are ahead. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Nina, Melanie,
Maddox, Finn, Devi, Reese, Grayson, and Anabelle are in the badlands (not the
South Dakota one, but Oklahoma or Kansas) trying to survive, hiding from the
Church. In the previous book Nina discovered the Church was ran by demons and
that her mother was a demon possessing a human body. Nina is public enemy
number one and a demon named Kastor wants her as a host. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Finn, a soul
who doesn’t have a corporeal form, is possessing a guard temporarily. Nina is
in love with Finn, no matter what body he’s in. Melanie is still pregnant and
due in about a month, and since souls are hard to come by, it’s possible the
baby won’t last an hour after it’s born. Nina plans on sacrificing her own soul
for the baby if it comes to it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The something
unexpected happens that changes everything and sets Nina on a course for
revenge and for an even more meaningful sacrifice. Can she and her friends save
humanity from the demons who are destroying it? <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So, this was a
great sequel. I wish it was longer or that there was a third book. I really
love it when there’s an interesting cast of characters, but I feel like some of
them were under-used. I wanted more dialogue from them. And I wanted more
romance. Despite that, it was a good sequel. Action and paranormal stuff and
cool discoveries and scary twists. I enjoy the way Rachel Vincent writes. She
has complex narrators that face terrible dilemmas, interesting love interests
(both Todd and Finn were incorporeal most of the time), interesting world
building and humor. I will miss the characters. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There was a moment
I considered this being set in the same world as Soul Screamers, but in the
future and that the demons were hellions, since both could posses people, but the
demons in this book don’t have a natural shape in Hell, and the hellions did in
the Netherworld. So that theory didn’t last long. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The
fate of the multiverse rests in Marguerite Caine’s hands. Marguerite has been
at the center of a cross-dimensional feud since she first traveled to another
universe using her parents’ invention, the Firebird. Only now has she learned
the true plans of the evil Triad Corporation—and that those plans could spell
doom for dozens or hundreds of universes, each facing total annihilation.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Paul
Markov has always been at Marguerite’s side, but Triad’s last attack has left
him a changed man—angry and shadowed by tragedy. He struggles to overcome the
damage done to him, but despite Marguerite’s efforts to help, Paul may never be
the same again.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So
it’s up to Marguerite alone to stop the destruction of the multiverse. Billions
of lives are at stake. The risks have never been higher. And Triad has
unleashed its ultimate weapon: another dimension’s Marguerite—wicked,
psychologically twisted, and always one step ahead.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

book Marguerite chases after the evil version of herself she call Wicked.
Wicked is from the Home Office universe that’s very advanced. Josie, who was
the perfect traveler from her universe, was splinted into many pieced, and
parts of her are in other Josies. They plan on destroying the other universes
to put her back together. In the previous book Paul was splintered, but only in
four pieces, which only took a Firebird to put him back together. Paul is still
damaged from this experience and even through Marguerite love him, he believe
he is still dangerous and pushes her away. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This book is an
epic saga of travel between dimensions. Wicked tries to kill the other Marguerites
in ways that are slow so when our Marguerite jumps into them, she might die too.
From futuristic London to an Egyptian dig to outerspace and so on. So many
different Marguerites. Paul says there’s a way to prevent the destruction of a
universe and builds stabilizers to save some, but it’s not easy. Can Marguerite,
her family, Paul and Theo save the multiverse from the Home Office, or will
someone have to make the ultimate sacrifice? <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I was very
pleased with this book. Like the whole series, it was so exciting I really didn’t
want to put it down, but school and work go in the way, so I had to. This is
best read when there’s nothing else going on, like on a snow day or something.
This is probably one the best sci-fi series I’ve read. I’m going to miss it so
much. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Review: I love these cover so much. The watercolor is gorgeous, the skylines
flipped are so cool. Very sophisticated typography too. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The
Midnight Star is the epic finale to the Young Elites trilogy. If you have not
read the Young Elites, then I recommend it if you are a fan of any of these
books: The Orphan Queen by Jodi Meadows, Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi, Crewel by
Gennifer Albin, The Jewel by Amy Ewing, Defiance by C.J. Redwine, Snow Like
Ashes by Sarah Raasch and the Red Queen by Victoria Avyard. This series is an
epic fantasy that is very unique. The Young Elites have abilities caused by the
blood fever. It’s said that they are connected to the God and their ability
comes from the immortal realm. Other people believe they are demons and call
them malfettos. Adelina has the power to create illusions, including both visual
and sensual. Her hair is silvery white and she has a scar where one of her eyes
should be. These are the markings of the blood fever. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">In this final chapter, Adelina, know throughout the
lands as the White Wolf, have become a conquering queen. She already took the
throne of Kenettra and extended her rule to Dumor. She now has her sites set on
Tamoura. She hears word that her sister Violetta is in Tamoura and she’s sick.
Violetta, who has never bared a mark before, is not covered in dark veins and
seems very weak. Her ability is to take away Elite abilities.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Raffaele and
others from the Daggers are there too and once Adelina, Magiano, and Sergio get
there, Raffaele tries to convince Adelina of a plan that involves them going to
the immortal realm to fix the damage that it’s causing to the mortal realm.
It’s an hard journey and they must find other Elites that can help them. Can
Adelina abandon her cruelty and find the compassion to help save their world
and forgive her sister? <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This very unique fantasy series has some very unique
characters that are not clichés or Mary Sues. It’s very diverse and different.
It feels like a manga, with the strange colored hair, eyes and markings. This
series would be perfect as a manga or graphic novel. The world building is
creative. The world is different, with it’s three moon instead of our one. The
mythology of their gods is woven with detail and share similarities to Roman
and Greek mythology. Marie Lu put a lot of work into this series. I hope that
we get to see it in some visual format be it a graphic novel, movie of TV
series. I will miss this beautiful and dark fantasy series greatly.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">These
six teens with unique abilities have taken on bank robbers, drug dealers, and

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">But
the quiet doesn’t last long when two strangers come to town, bringing with them

against these new enemies, every Zero is under threat. Mob is crippled by the

the worst things a crowd can do. Crash’s conscience—and her heart—get a
workout. Anon and Scam must both put family loyalties on the line for the sake
of survival. And Bellwether’s glorious-leader mojo deserts him.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Swarm is the sequel to Zeroes. If you have
not read these books, this series is about a group of six teens with unique
abilities. The book is written in 3rd person POV rotating between 6 characters
that call themselves Zeroes (like heroes, but not). Scam (Ethan) has another
voice that he uses to get him out of situations or get him what he wants. It
knows things he doesn’t know himself. It’s almost like another entity possesses
him. It’s such a unique and odd ability and works better one-on-one. I really
enjoy Ethan’s character the most. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The other
characters have abilities that work best in crowds. Flicker (Riley) is blind
but can use the eyes of people around he to see, like remote viewing. She has a
twin named Lily who she relies on a lot. Bellwether (Nate), is Latino and has
the ability to lead crowds. To pull attention to him, like charisma. Crash
(Chizara) can sense connected technology around her and crash it. Anonymous
(Thibault) has a mental memory based form of invisibility and can’t turn it
off. He’s easily forgotten when people stop paying attention to him. It’s
difficult to make people remember him. Mob (Kelsie) can turn a crowd into a
single organism that has one mood or goal.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is a
really unique series because of these unique abilities and how they are
utilized. Their powers get them into crazy situation and they try hard to do
good things, but their power aren’t exactly the kind that could save the day,
like super strength or speed. In this book they meet a few other Zeroes outside
their group who don’t exactly use their powers for good. A girl who can warp
your perception and make you lose yourself and a boy who can temporarily turn
blank paper into money. They’re like a Bonnie and Clyde couple, making big
scenes in crowds and causing problems. They’re running from a worse Zero
through, a guy who can turn a crown into a single-minded swarm with intent to
kill. Things are really getting ugly for the Zeroes and chances of survival
seem slim.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I enjoyed this
books because it was so much fun. It’s very fast pace. It’s best read when you
aren’t busy so you can just blaze through the pages. There’s so much action,
humor and cool stuff going on in the book. There’s even some romance, but I was
kind of disappointed for Ethan’s sake. The ending was truly climatic and
surprising. There will be another book, but at times when reading this a I
though it was a sequel-finale in a duology, but Goodreads says there’s a third
book in the works. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Meira
will do anything to save her world. With Angra trying to break through her
mental defenses, she desperately needs to learn to control her own magic—so
when the leader of a mysterious Order from Paisly offers to teach her, she jumps
at the chance. But the true solution to stopping the Decay lies in a labyrinth
deep beneath the Season Kingdoms. To defeat Angra, Meira will have to enter the
labyrinth, destroy the very magic she’s learning to control—and make the
biggest sacrifice of all.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Mather
will do anything to save his queen. He needs to rally the Children of the Thaw,
find Meira—and finally tell her how he really feels. But with a plan of attack
that leaves no kingdom unscathed and a major betrayal within their ranks,
winning the war—and protecting Meira—slips farther and farther out of reach.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Ceridwen
will do anything to save her people. Angra had her brother killed, stole her
kingdom, and made her a prisoner. But when she’s freed by an unexpected ally
who reveals a shocking truth behind Summer’s slave trade, Ceridwen must take
action to save her true love and her kingdom, even if it costs her what little
she has left.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Meira is the
queen and conduit of the Winter kingdom. She’s trying to find away to stop
Angra, the evil ruler of Spring who use the magic of the Decay. Meira is
brought to Paisley, the kingdom hidden in the mountains of the north. Rares and
his wife offer to train Meira in using her magic. Meira soon discovers that the
only way to defeat Angra might not end in a happy ending for. She might have to
sacrifice everything to save her kingdom and the rest of Primoria from Angra
and this war. With Mather by her side, she feels she can do anything. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Mather would do
anything to save Meira from the fate she plans to accept. He really does want
to spend his life with her and can’t imagine living without her. Ceridwen is
now the monarch of Summer, but cannot use her kingdom conduit because it is
male-blooded. She’s trying to save her own people and create new allies. She
also wants a relationship with Jesse, but he must first break his relationship
with Raelyn, his current wife who’s now under Angra’s influence. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

finale is filled with magic and adventure and even all the romance we were
hoping for. I will say that I did not enjoy this book as much as the previous
book. I’m not a fan of 3<sup>rd</sup> person POV and I would have preferred only
to have Meira 1<sup>st</sup> person POV or have 1<sup>st</sup> person
perspective of Mather and Ceridwen. Also I was so busy with school, that it
takes a long time to finish a book. I did enjoy this series overall and hope to
find more unique fantasy series like this one. I’m very happen to see how this
series has come so far and to a satisfying ending. I can’t wait to see what
other stories Sara Raasch cooks up. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

product description:</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
“Thor's hammer is missing again. The thunder god has a disturbing habit of
misplacing his weapon--the mightiest force in the Nine Worlds. But this time
the hammer isn't just lost, it has fallen into enemy hands. If Magnus Chase and
his friends can't retrieve the hammer quickly, the mortal worlds will be
defenseless against an onslaught of giants. Ragnarok will begin. The Nine
Worlds will burn. Unfortunately, the only person who can broker a deal for the
hammer's return is the gods' worst enemy, Loki--and the price he wants is very
high.”</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Hammer of Thor is the hilarious and fun
sequel to the Sword of Summer in Rick Riordan’s Magnus Chase series. Like all
of Rick’s YA and MG books, it takes mythology and puts it in modern day and add
funny twists. In this sequel, Thor’s hammer was stolen, likely by giants since
they’re the ones who’ve done it in the past, and Thor’s wants Magnus and his
friends to get it back. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Magnus is the
demi-god son of the Norse god Frey and cousin of Annabeth, daughter of Athena,
from the Percy Jackson series. His friends are Samirah, a muslim girl who
moonlights as a Valkyrie, retrieving souls of fallen heroes. There’s Blitzen, a
drawf with a great fashion sense and Hearthstone, a deaf elf with an affinity
for rune-stone magic. There’s the einherji, the fallen heroes that live on the
same floor as Magnus: T.J, Halfborn, and Mallory. They gain a new ally who’s an
einherji too named Alex. Alex is a child of Loki like Samirah, but Alex is a
gender-fluid argr, and usually a girl, but sometimes has very male days. Alex
shape-shifts into animal often, but doesn’t have control of when she’s male or
female. It’s very confusing.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">They go on a
journey through the nine worlds. They have to find a special sword and the
stone that sharpens the blade. They travel from Midgard to Alfheim, Jotunheim,
and Asgard. It’s a dangerous quest full of perils like angry elves, bowling
giants, and gods who take selfies with a phablet using a sword as a selfie-stick.
It’s a fun thrill-ride and never boring, but it took me a while to get through
this book. It’s not fast-paced because you have to really work to picture some
of the silly stuff that happens, and sometimes it get wordy. I really enjoyed
it, but I was pretty busy and it took me two weeks to finish this. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you have
read and enjoyed Loki’s Wolves, Odin’s Ravens, and Thor’s Serpent by Kelley
Armstrong and Melissa Marr, then I highly recommend this book. Also fans of the
Thor movies, or anything myth-related. Norse Mythology is hot and different
from the Greek stuff. This book is fun and you will learn about Norse
Mythology, even if Rick has twisted it a little.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Seventeen-year-old
Snow has spent her life locked in Whittaker Psychiatric—but she isn’t crazy.
And that’s not the worst of it. Her very first kiss proves anything but
innocent…when Bale, her only love, turns violent.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Despite
Snow knowing that Bale would never truly hurt her, he is taken away—dashing her
last hope for any sort of future in the mental ward she calls home. With
nowhere else to turn, Snow finds herself drawn to a strange new orderly who
whispers secrets in the night about a mysterious past and a kingdom that’s hers
for the taking—if only she can find her way past the iron gates to the Tree
that has been haunting her dreams.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Stealing
Snow is the first book in a new series by Danielle Paige, author of Dorothy
Must Die. The book has a very similar subject matter, though rather than being
a sequel series to a older piece a literature like Dorothy Must Die, it’s a
loose retelling of the Hans Christian Anderson’s Snow Queen that feels kind of
like the movie Frozen meet Dorothy Must Die, so it’s more like
Snow-King-Must-Die this time. Much like her other series, there are witches and
magic. There’s a lot of humor and modernized things in this fantasy world (like
a night club and snow mobiles). It take some of the fantasy clichés and bring
life to them. It’s a very fun read. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There were a lot of characters in this book. The main
character Snow lived in an insane asylum for most of her life and feel abandoned
by her mother, who only visits rarely. Snow was sent there after trying to drag
a childhood friend through a mirror because she took Through the Looking Glass
literally. Snow has pale skin, brown eyes, and white-blond hair streaked with
white-gray, supposedly from the pills, but Snow doesn’t think so. She names the
different pills she’s given after the Seven Dwarf, which is hilarious since her
name is Snow. The asylum has a lot of odd people in it, including Magpie, the
kleptomaniac, a girl called Wing who thinks she can fly, and a guy who thinks
he can “blink” through time. Then there’s Bale, her boyfriend. He’s a
pyromaniac and he tried choking her, so now they’ve been separated. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">One night, a mysterious new orderly named Jagger shows
up and tells her to go to the Tree. Something happens to Bale that night. He
suddenly disappears and she goes outside to the tree and ends up in a world
called Algid. There she meets a River Witch named Nepenthe, a young architect
named Kai, and a nature witch named Gerd. Snow stays in a house with them for a
while so the River Witch can teach Snow to control her snow powers. Kai shows
Snow the town and tells her about Algid. Snow learns about a prophecy about a
Snow Princess, about herself. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Snow runs into Jagger again, who introduces her to the
Robbers, who are all female, except for him. Their queen’s named Margot, there
a girl named Howl’s who go a great voice, and a girl named Fathom who Snow saw
selling potions when she was with Kai. Margot claims she can help Snow get Bale
back, but she must first help them get a piece of the king’s mirror that is
with Snow’s cousin, the duchess. Snow trains hard for complete control of her
power and learns to be Robber. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Think book was crazy and epic, but sometimes I did get
a little confused and disappointed in how things kept changing. I loved the
world building for it’s descriptions and crazy colors, but something felt inconsistent,
like the technology, but maybe it was just magic. Some things felt to ridiculous
and frivolous, which was okay for Dorothy Must Die, because Oz is just a crazy
place, but I wanted something more High Fantasy, like Snow Like Ashes and Six
of Crows, but as a parallel world. I did enjoy the book and want to read the
sequel.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I recommend this book to fans of Danielle Paige, the
movie Frozen, Snow Like Ashes by Sara Raasch, Six of Crows and the Grisha
Trilogy by Leigh Bardugo, The Young Elites by Marie Lu, Cold Spell by Jackson
Pierce, Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard, the World Walker trilogy by Josephine
Angelini, and any unique YA fantasy series out there. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

long way from the weak, sickly girl she used to be. She has gained power as a
witch and a leader, found her way home, chosen to face battle again, and (after
losing her first love and being betrayed by her new love) she has learned more
about loss and grief than she ever wanted to know.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Thrust
once again into a society different from anything they have ever seen, Lily and
her coven are determined to find answers―to find a new path to victory, a way
to defeat the monstrous Woven without resorting to nuclear weapons or becoming
a tyrannical mass murderer like her alternate self, Lillian. But sometimes
winning requires sacrifices . . . and when the only clear path to victory lies
at Lillian's side, what price will Lily be willing to pay?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review: Witch’s Pyre is the final book in the World
Walker trilogy. If you have not read this series, I recommend this series to
fantasy fans, especially fans of parallel universe books such as: Tandem by
Anna Jarzeb, A Thousand Pieces of You by Claudia Gray, and Unraveling by
Elizabeth Norris. And fans of witch books. Also if you liked Red Queen or The
Jewel or anything mix of dystopian and fantasy.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Lily, Rowan, Tristan, Breakfast, and Una are brought
to Bower City (it what’s coastal California in Lily’s world) by the Hive. As
newcomers, they are honored with a ball so the elite of Bower City can see
them. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The witch Grace, who at one time was an Outlander,
runs Bower City. They meet Toshi, the apprentice of Grace’s head mechanic,
Ivan. Toshi is a powerful healer and his willstone is a deep garnet color. He’s
of Japanese descent and the rest of his family live outside the city wall. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Lily and her coven discover the truth behind the Hive
and who really runs them. They uncover dark secret behind the Woven’s creation
and decide they must take action to save this world. Lily expands her abilities
and claims many willstones so she can build a powerful army of allies. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I loves the world building still. I love books about
parallel universes, especially when there’s some fantasy elements. The only
thing that really confused me about it was Lilly having to go into a Pyre to
provide her claimed with power. I guess she somehow “transmutates” the heat of
the fire into power. I found the Hive to be very creepy sounding. I don’t like
the idea of giant bee-ladies. Some of the other woven, like the tamed Greater
Drake sound cool, because the look like dragons, but huge insects are just
gross. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This finale was mostly enjoyable, but I always having
trouble getting into a book when I can’t recall what happened previously, or
who’s who character-wise. We get to see a very different city from Lillian’s
Salem and meet new characters. There are some interesting discoveries. There
were some parts with funny dialogue, mostly exchanges between Lilly and Rowan.
I really like Rowen, but I feel like there was not enough romance in this book.
Lilly and Rowan are both a bit stubborn and they took to long to make-up. I
always glad when this work out in the end, but it would have been nice to get
more romantic scenes.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review: This
book came out last year and I finally got around to reading it because the sequel
just came out. It took me about two weeks to read this book because I was so
busy with school, and then my bird died, which made it hard to read. So now I’m
finally done with this book. Even though it took so long, I still enjoyed it.
It only took me 3.5 hours to read the last 120 pages. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This book was
like a fantasy version of Suicide Squad, and I kind of want to compare Inej to
Katana and Nine to Harley Quinn and Jesper to Deadshoot, and I’m not sure who
the others seem like. It’s about a group of misfits, criminals from various
places who came together is a city called Ketterdam, which is basically like
Amsterdam. It has cannels and different districts and legal prostitution and
lots of gambling dens. It has a late 1800s feel. It’s not even a decade after
the event of the Grisha Trilogy and I feel like there’s lot of industrial
advancement that happened. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So the book has
six main characters, but it only rotates between five point of views: Kaz,
Inej, Jesper, Nina, and Matthias. Wylan doesn’t get his own chapters. Kaz is a
theif who uses slight of hand, he’s the leader and he also limps because his
leg never healed quite right. Nina is a Heartrender Grisha originally from
Ravka and she’s busty and bold and has a talent for languages. Inej, a Suli
girl, is also known as the Wraith. She moves very silently and collects secrets
for Kaz by spying on wealthy people. She used to be an acrobat. Jesper is a
Zemeni sharpshooter who has a bad gambling habit. Matthias is a Fjerdian witch
hunter who ended up in prison. Wylan is the son of a mercher, and he’s got a
lot of talents. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">These character
are given a task that will earn themselves 30 million kruge (dollars)if
completed. They must rescue the scientist who developed a drug called jurda
parum from the Fjerdians. The drug make’s Grisha powers powerful beyond
imagination and it’s also highly addictive and eventually fatal. The take a
boat to the Ice Court in Dierholm and plan to enter and prisoner, hoping to
find the scientist in a cell, but like all plans, there are quite a few bumps
along the way and tons of twist and turn you won’t see coming. The book also
features many flash-backs that give us more backstory on the characters. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I recommend
this book to fans of fantasy who want something a little different and unique,
also fans of steampunk, because this is kind of like steampunk in a way. And
the Curseworkers series by Holly Black, another book about magical criminals.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A sorcerer named Cornelius Agrippa comes to the girl
school that Henrietta lives at and now teaches at and he believes she might be
the prophesized one. He says she’s the first female sorcerer in a long time and
that she could be the key to defeating the ancients. He bring her to London to
meet the other sorcerer apprentices who are all male. He has to train her by
the commendation on Midsummer’s eve, the summer solstice. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The other sorcerers are all males and including the
charming and flirty Julian Magnus, the brooding George Blackwood, and Arthur,
Clarence, Cellini, Isaac, and Dee. She stays in the room that used to be
Agrippa’s daughter Gwendolyn’s room. She’s been dead for the past years. She
meets a Hobgoblin doctor named Fenswick. He maid’s named is Lilly. There’s also
a magician named Hargrove who recognizes Henrietta somehow. Magicians’ magic is
outlawed, but they are allowed to live, unlike the witches who used to be
around. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Henrietta’s powers grow with the training, but they
aren’t reliable like the other sorceress. They seem to be tied to her emotions.
Henrietta may not be what she was told that she was. She feels out of place,
but will do anything to be commended by the Queen and help defeat the ancients.
With some romance, action and magic, a Shadow Bright and Burning is an exciting
tales of dark fantasy. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I received
an ARC of One Was Lost from Anderson’s Bookshop for a pre-pub event, which I sadly
can’t attend because of a night class. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">One Was Lost is a standalone thriller set in the
Appalachian wilderness of southern Ohio. A group of 6 teens are on a trip with
two teachers. A rainstorm causes a flash flood. The bridge that they were
supposed to cross the river with is broken. Sera, Lucas, Jude, Emily and Mr.
Walker make it across, but Madison, Hayley, and Ms. Brighton get left behind as
the river floods. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The group of five sets up camp, hoping the river level
will go down the next day. The next morning they wake up to find word written
on their arms and Mr. Walker unable to wake up. They figure out that they were
drugged, probably by something in their water bottles. Most of their supplied
have been destroy or stolen. Sera’s word is Darling, Lucas has Dangerous, Emily
has Damaged, and Jude had Deceptive. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This book is full of brutally realistic survival and a
freaky mystery. I had my guesses on who did it, but I didn’t expect who it
turned out to be. I enjoyed the romance between Sera and Lucas. I thought Sera
being a director of school plays made her a unique and interesting protagonist.
I liked the fast pace of the story and I just wanted to know what happened
next. I never read anything by this author before, but this book made me want
to check her other books out. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I recommend this book to those who enjoy mystery
thrillers, like anything by Alexandra Sirowy, Kimberly Derting, or Becca
Fitzpatrick.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">My Review: </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The Telling is
a standalone murder-mystery thriller set on an island in Washington State,
called Gant. Lana’s step-brother was possibly or probably murdered two month
ago in June. His ex-girlfriend was suspected in helping a car jacking that led
to his dead. Ben had stopped the car for a stranger and was attacked and
stabbed and then dragged away. Lana spent about a month after his death moping
at home until a note Ben left jolts her out of her grief. She starts hanging
out with the popular kids, who she’d never thought would include her in
anything.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">These kids made
fun of her in middle school and some of high school. Now it’s August and soon
school starts. These popular kids known around town as the Core (Becca,
Carolynn, Rusty, Duncan and Josh) are with Lana and Willa (Lana’s only previous
friend) at a spring in the woods hanging out and drinking. They dare each other
to jump off a cliff into the lake and when they do they find a body stuck under
the water: Ben’s ex-girlfriend, Maggie. And when they report the body they
suddenly become suspects. But this murder is only the beginning and Lana and
the Core have to find the murderer before they become victims. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Ben, Lana’s
stepbrother, has a mysterious past. He arrives with his mother Diane, when he
was twelve. Diane became Lana’s father’s new wife. Lana’s mother died when Lana
was four. Ben’s been telling Lana fantastical stories of good vs. evil since he
came. In these stories, Lana and Ben are always the heroes and Lana’s a brave
warrior. These stories are sometimes disturbing a violent. They’re not the sort
of thing out of a kid’s imagination. Lana was addicted to those stories. They
made her feel strong. She wanted to be brave like that Lana. Ben was obsessed
with adventure and getting out of Gant. He wanted to do something important
with his life, so he spent some time in Guatemala helping to build wells. Gant
is a place full of rich people who have excess and Ben found it disgusting, yet
his life was full of riches too. He considered himself a hypocrite, and said he
wanted to leave Gant after high school. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I really
enjoyed the book. I usually only read sci-fi, fantasy and paranormal stuff, but
because this had a ghost-story horror feel to it, I didn’t care. It’s a very
atmospheric book. The misty setting of Washington in late summer became a
character itself. I recently watched the TV series Dead of Summer and even
though that was paranormal and not contemporary, it had the same kind of creepy
summer feel. I read The Creeping last year by this author and enjoyed it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Also, I really
am amazed that I was right about the twist. I had this epiphany when I was
maybe a third of the way into the book that if I was the author, I would
totally make the killer someone so unsuspected, so I went off on a limb on this
idea, was pulled away from it by some possibilities, but inevitably came back
to the this conclusion which turned out to be right. I sure it was just
foreshadowing or maybe a cliché in classic horror and not actually as clever a
twist I thought, or maybe I have a psychic superpower for guessing plot twists,
because I right maybe half the time or more. It’s really hard to talk about it
because it’s too big of a spoiler, but I saw it coming somehow. I WAS RIGHT!!!!

Review: I love the opalline paper this is printed on. The cover itself is
creepy and definitely gives you a sense of the story inside. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review: <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The
Revival is the finale to the Young World trilogy. If you have not read this
series, it’s set in a post-epidemic version of New York City in which only kids
and teen survived the plaque. I recommend this to fans of the Gone series by
Michael Grant, The 5th Wave, The Hunger Games, Divergent, Maximum Ride,
Quarantine by Lex Thomas, Monument 14 by Emmy Laybourne, No Easy Way Out by
Dayna Lorentz, Inhuman by Kat Fall, The Murder Complex by Lindsey Cummings,
Taken by Erin Bowman, and other dystopian book.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Donna is back in New York City and with her comes some
of the people she met in Cambridge, including Rab, the guy “seduced” her to get
information. There’s Titch who’s a burly guy, there’s Guja, a Nepalese
mercenary, and a few other. Jefferson, the leader of the group of kids who
lived in Washington Square, was pinning for Donna to come back and Kath says he
should get over her. Kath and Jefferson had a thing for a while. Peter is mad
that Chapel, a guy who he thought her was in love with, betrayed him, and possibly
also just seduced him for information. Evan, Kath’s brother, from Uptown, is a
sociopath and has some nefarious plans. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This book series is full of humor and action. This is
one of the most fun dystopian book series you will ever read. It’s a little bit
like the Gone series at first, minus the super power. I love that we get
different first person perspectives. The male POV are in a serif and female in
san-serif a typeface. The chapter headers have a weapon silhouette behind the
character name. I recall the first book was all Jefferson and Donna, but here
we get Peter, Kath, Evan, Imani, Brainbox, and Rab. Some of them only get 1 or
2 chapters. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This book also brings up a lot of social issues like
race, gender and sexuality, and it does it with humor. Some of the characters
are clearly a bit racist, but most are just trying to survive and don’t care
about that stuff. There’s just a extremely diverse cast of characters that the
author created, maybe unreality so. I don’t think that it’s a very realist
story, even if there was a virus that killed all the adult and kids had to
survive. Yes, there would be cliques and gangs, but some of the story does seem
silly, but this is fiction and I enjoyed it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The book ended in an acceptable way. We didn’t get to
see what happed 6 months later or whatever future would happen, but the
character definitely had some kind of resolution. A climatic scene, and
showdown, some sad deaths, some romance. It’s a pretty good finale and I will
miss this series, but there’s always more to read. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

author Carrie Jones introduces sassy alien-hunting cheerleader Mana in Flying,
the launch of a sparkling new YA SF series.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">People
have always treated seventeen-year-old Mana as someone in need of protection.
She's used to being coddled, being an only child, but it's hard to imagine
anything could ever happen in her small-town, normal life. As her mother's
babying gets more stifling than ever, she's looking forward to cheering at the
big game and getting out of the house for a while.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">But that
night, Mana's life goes haywire.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">First,
the hot guy she's been crushing on at school randomly flips out and starts
spitting acid during the game. Then they get into a knockdown, drag-out fight
in the locker room, during which Mana finds herself leaping around like a
kangaroo on steroids. As a flyer on the cheerleading squad, she's always been a
good jumper, but this is a bit much. By the time she gets home and finds her
house trashed and an alien in the garage, Mana starts to wonder if her mother
had her reasons for being overprotective.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">It turns
out, Mana's frumpy, timid mom is actually an alien hunter, and now she's
missing--taking a piece of technology with her that everyone wants their hands
on, both human and alien. Now her supposed partner, a guy that Mana has never
met or heard of (and who seems way too young and way too arrogant to be hunting
aliens), has shown up, ordering Mana to come with him. Now, on her own for the
first time, Mana will have to find a way to save her mother--and maybe the
world--and hope she's up to the challenge.”</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Flying
is a crazy, hilarious sci-fi thrill ride. At times the humor may seem a little
over the top, but that’s the fun of it. It’s sci-fi comedy. This is the first
book of a new series by Carrie Jones, author of the Need series, which was also
fun and creative. Much like that series, this one is set in New England, New
Hampshire and Maine. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Mana is a cheerleader. She’s the flyer because she’s
short and her friends September and Lyle are bases. Mana has a crush on a
drummer named Dakota, but during a basket ball game a guy attacks Dakota. It
turns out that Dakota is an alien and a jerk. The guy beating his up is named
China and he’s an alien hunter. China’s a bit cocky and weird and claims that
Mana’s mother is an alien hunter and his partner. Mana thinks he means partner
in love, even though he’s only in his 20’s. That’s not what he meant, of
course. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Mana’s mom is missing and she supposedly has a chip
with some important information of it. Enemy aliens are likely holding her
hostage if she’s not dead already. Mana and China end up letting Lyle in on

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review: Rebellion is the finale to the Elysium
trilogy. If you are unfamiliar with the series, it’s set in an under water sea
colony that used to be a resort, but then a woman who calls herself mother
killed her father, the owner and took over. Evie is her daughter, but not by
birth. Evie keeps getting her memories erased. There’s a boy named Gavin who
comes from the surface and romance happens. I recommend it if you like
dystopians or the idea of sea colonies. If you have not read the series, then
spoilers ahead because this is a review of the final book. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This book, like the previous book, is told from 2
point-of views: Evie and Gavin. I don’t recall the first book having Gavin’s
POV. Evie knows that she used to be an Enforcer and she met her birthmother.
She meets a woman named Nadia and discovers the Underground, the people living
in a place called the Caverns in an underdeveloped hidden section of Elysium.
They are planning a rebellion against mother. Also Gavin has to go to the
surface because the other have nanites in them that could wipe their memories
it the leave. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Gavin goes to his mother, who thought he was dead.
Apparently his little brother angered the mayor of their village and now they’re
not allowed to trade or be full citizens. Gavin gets pissed about this and the
mayor tries to bribe Gavin for information on his son Asher and Evie’s whereabouts.
Meanwhile Evie and the Underground come up with a plan that involves wearing
mask with her face on them and gaining the trust of the citizens and help to
take down mother. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I was a bit disappointed with this finale. I loved the
first two books, but this one felt lacking and also the ending left a lot of
questions, as crazy as it was. There was not as much romance or action or
adventure. Having to wait and extra year to read this book that was not worth
the wait. I still like the character and love the setting, but this felt like
it was trying to imitate other dystopian finales at least until the very end. I
just wish things went differently.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Summary/ product description:</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “Geeze Louise, for such a
small town, there sure are a lot of murders in Friendship, Wisconsin.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">After
helping to catch the man who murdered her best friend, Kippy Bushman was
looking forward to life returning to normal. Well, at least as normal as it
could get in a town like hers. But then the unthinkable happens: Kippy finds
her boyfriend, Davey, in his house, barely breathing and surrounded by pills
and empty beer bottles.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The
sheriff is quick to rule the incident an attempted suicide, but Kippy refuses
to believe it. She and Davey are completely in love; there’s no way he’d ever
hurt himself. Right?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Kippy
swears she saw someone else at Davey’s house that night and is convinced that
person tried to murder him. Without any real evidence, though, no one—not even
Kippy’s own father—believes her. So she has no choice but to team up with her
former nemesis, Bible-thumping Libby, to try to catch this new killer. But in a
town where everyone has their own secrets and a next-door neighbor could be a
serial killer, who’s left to trust?”</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Bad is Going to Happen</span></i><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> is the hilarious sequel to <i>No One Else Can Have You</i>. I don’t think
there will be a 3<sup>rd</sup> book, but ya never know. Anyways, despite what
other reviewers think, this book was pretty awesome. Maybe they were just being
jerks, don’tcha know?</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Kippy Bushman was almost murdered and has a leg cast
to prove it. She caught her best friend’s killer, but the Sheriff took the
credit for it, and made her look like a crazy person. The killer was a friend
named Ralph who’s totally a sociopath and now locked up in Green Bay
Correctional Facility. He keeps sending her creepy letters and calling her. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When Kippy find her boyfriend passed out on the night
they planned to have sex, she calls 911. She think she saw a shadow figure and
that no way could Davey commit suicide, but they rule it as attempted suicide
because the bottles of alcohol and empty pill bottle. Kippy enlists Libby, a
girl who used to be mean to her, but who’s now her only ally, to help her find
evidence of Davey’s attempted murder. Filled with mystery, crazy twists and
hilarious laughs, it’s the perfect sequel. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This book series is set in (Wisconsin) the hat of the
state I live in (Illinois), I place I love dearly and the state that I visited
the most. I’ve seen more of Wisconsin than Illinois. And I’m familiar with
Wisconsinisms and their love of the Packers and cheese and all that.
Friendship, Wisconsin is a real town near Baraboo, which I camped at Devil’s
Lake State Park last year. The real Friendship, of course, is nothing like the
one in the books. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The humor in this book is my favorite part. Sometimes
it’s very dirty and full of swearing and things that make me cringe just
thinking of because it sound erotic, but I cracked up reading this so many
times that I sure that if I had read this in public, people would be staring at
me. I think the characters came along better in this sequel. Kippy seems less
strange and more smart than she did in the first book. Libby’s nice to her now
and really helpful. Rose, the anger management counselor, is now dating Kippy’s
dad Dom. Rosa is so hilarious. She’s Polish and speaks in broken English and
calls Kippy by the most hilarious pet names, like Mud Dumpling, and says things
like “Soup is on.” I’m like 20% Polish myself and I find her hilarious. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I recommend this series to people who love watching
comedies, or reading books by Heather Keeble or Gretchen McNeil.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Summary/ product description:</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “When Marshall King and
Elyse Alton suddenly wake up tangled in each other's arms with zero memory of
how they got there or even who they are, it's the start of a long journey
through their separate pasts and shared future.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Terrified
by their amnesia, Marshall and Elyse make a pact to work together to find the
answers that could restore their missing memories. As they piece together clues
about their lives, they discover that they're in the idyllic mountain resort
town of Summer Falls. Everyone seems happy there, but as Marshall and Elyse
quickly learn, darkness lurks beneath the town's perfect facade. Not only is
the town haunted by sinister ghosts, but none of its living inhabitants retain
bad memories of anything—not the death of Marshall's mom, not the hidden
violence in Elyse's family, not even the day-to-day anguish of being a high
schooler.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Lonely
in this world of happy zombies, Marshall and Elyse fall into an intense
relationship founded on their mutual quest for truth. But the secrets they're
trying to uncover could be the death of this budding love affair—and of
everyone, and everything, they love in Summer Falls.”</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I’ve
had Glimmer sitting on my shelf waiting to be read for year. It came out in
2013. I bought it because I liked the cover and I love a good mystery with
paranormal elements. And nothing says paranormal mystery like amnesia, a
strange small town and ghosts. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Glimmer was different from how I expected it. It
wasn’t scary or dystopian or full of odd twists. It kept me guessing, and
sometimes I was able to predict things correctly, but I liked it when I was
surprised. I also really enjoyed the setting. I visited Colorado in 2003 on a
family vacation and it was beautiful. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Summer falls is this magical made-up Colorado town in
which it’s always balmy summer weather and tourist feel like they’re on a drug
when they are there. It sounds great, except anyone who experiences anything
negative, like a fight or sadness, suddenly passes out in a “heat nap” caused
by ghosts. Only Elyse can see the ghosts are causing it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I also enjoy stories about memory loss. It’s always
interesting to see character deal with the present without knowing their pasts.
Elyse and Marshall don’t even know their names when the wake up, but since
their names are already in the book’s description, it’s not read a spoiler.
They wake up in bed with each other, naked. They don’t know how they got there.
Elyse think’s she was kidnapped, that Marshall drugged her. It’s a real mess
and they find clothes and leave out the window. And soon after Elyse sees a
ghost. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I really did enjoy the characters. They didn’t like it
when they found out about their pasts. Things didn’t fit to them. But their
personalities were pretty interesting. Elyse was stubborn and strong willed,
but also honest. She didn’t like how everyone noticed her. She used to be
popular apparently. Marshall had a strong ego, but everyone seemed to treat him
like he was invisible. Everyone else in Summer Falls suffered from selective
memory loss, and acted like happy zombies or pod people. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I recommend this book to those who enjoyed the
Shadowlands series by Kate Brian, Blood Magic by Tessa Gratton, or books with
ghosts or people with memory loss. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Kenna is
tired of being lied to—and hunted by the very allies she once trusted.
Unearthing the dark secrets of the superhero world has not only endangered her
life, now her boyfriend faces execution for crimes he didn’t commit and her
mother is being held captive in a secret governmental prison.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Kenna is

criminals to face justice.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">But the
truth is even more terrifying than Kenna could imagine. A conspiracy threatens
the fate of heroes, villains, and all of humanity. If Kenna’s going to survive,
she must draw on her deepest strength: her resilience. Because when Kenna’s
pushed to the limit, she doesn’t break down. She fights back.”</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Relentless
is the sequel to Powerless and (probably) the finale to the Hero’s Agenda
duology. If you haven’t read Powerless, I recommend it to those who enjoyed <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Steelheart by Brandon Sanderson, V is For
Villain by Peter Moore, Zeroes by Scott Westerfeld, Illusive by Emily
Llyod-Jones, Blackout by Robison Wells, Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi, Red Queen
by Victoria Avyard, The Young Elite by Marie Lu, or anything superhero-related.

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Kenna in the first book had discovered that she had a
power. She can control electromagnetic energy, knocking out electronics with
EMPs. Also, she’s a villain and since the serum wore off, her villain mark is
visible and she can use her ability. In this world, a type of virus with 2
strains, one for heroes and one for villain, gives people powers and also
leaves a mark behind the ear that differentiates heroes and villains. To me it
seems like there is no difference between the heroes and villain other that the
mark, and it’s more prejudice than anything. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Kenna’s villain boyfriend Draven is being put on trial
to be executed. Kenna and her team of “hillains” (heroes and villains working
together) are there to rescue him. Kenna has disguised herself at a media
reporter and her team is waiting in the wing ready to go on her mark.
Everything goes haywire, and though they rescue Draven, someone else isn’t so
lucky and Kenna suffers a loss so hard, that she’s not sure how she can move
on. She set out for revenge, ready to defeat Rex Malone, the hero with
malicious intentions, with everything she’s got. This is an action packed
sequel that reads like an actual super hero movie or TV shows. It’s set in
Colorado, which is a nice change of pace from all the NYC and Cali set
superhero stories. And I’ve been to the Denver area in Colorado before, so that’s
a plus.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I really did enjoy this series. It was very short,
though. The characters are very unqiue from one another. I did have difficultly
remembering the character at first since it’s been a year and Powerless was a
pretty fast and short book too. I forgot who’s who and what their power or
relation is. I tried keeping track, though. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

weapon masquerades as a senator’s daughter and a hostage of the galactic court.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Diabolic is ruthless. A Diabolic is powerful. A Diabolic has a single task:
Kill in order to protect the person you’ve been created for.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Nemesis
is a Diabolic, a humanoid teenager created to protect a galactic senator’s daughter,
Sidonia. The two have grown up side by side, but are in no way sisters. Nemesis
is expected to give her life for Sidonia, and she would do so gladly. She would
also take as many lives as necessary to keep Sidonia safe.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When the
power-mad Emperor learns Sidonia’s father is participating in a rebellion, he
summons Sidonia to the Galactic court. She is to serve as a hostage. Now, there
is only one way for Nemesis to protect Sidonia. She must become her. Nemesis
travels to the court disguised as Sidonia—a killing machine masquerading in a
world of corrupt politicians and two-faced senators’ children. It’s a nest of
vipers with threats on every side, but Nemesis must keep her true abilities a
secret or risk everything.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">As the
Empire begins to fracture and rebellion looms closer, Nemesis learns there is
something more to her than just deadly force. She finds a humanity truer than
what she encounters from most humans. Amidst all the danger, action, and
intrigue, her humanity just might be the thing that saves her life—and the
empire.”</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I’ve
had the great pleasure of reading an advance copy of this, provided by
Anderson’s Bookshop and Bookfair in Naperville, Illinois. They have a pre-pub
event August 22 that I had wanted to attend, but have class that night. The
author will be there to sign ARCs and there will be food. If you live in
Chicagoland and are interested, please contact them and pick up you ARC. Seeing
as this book has not yet been released and won’t be until November first, I
won’t spoil anything major, but I’ll tell you about it the best I can. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The Diabolic is a sci-fi story that takes place in
space. It’s part dystopian, part space opera. Nemesis is a Diabolic, which is a
genetically engineered bodyguard that is bonded to one person, and seeks to
protect only that person, even if it means harming the people that person care
about. Nemesis belongs to Sidonia Impyrean, the daughter of a galactic Senator.

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Sidonia is summoned by the Emperor to the
Chrysanthemum, the space colony where the royal court is located. Sidonia’s
mother decides to have Nemesis go in her steed. Nemesis is taught etiquette and
under goes genetic modifications to her appearance and to make her body seem
more average in size and strength so she won’t be discovered to be a
Diabolic.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When Nemesis gets to court, she discovers that playing
a Senatorial heir might be harder than she thought. She might have to take
extreme measure to keep her secret and to protect the Impyrean family. She
soons discovers that in the royal court, there’s always some plot, scandal or
assassination attempt in the works and it’s best to trust no one.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The Emperor has three of his own Diabolics, even
though they were outlawed everywhere else, and knowledge Nemesis’s mere
existence could cause the execution of the Impyreans for treason. She thinks
his Diabolics might be on to her. On top on that, the emperor’s nephew and heir
Tyrus seems to be taking notice of her, and if rumors are true, then he’s
insane, but maybe there’s something cleverer about him that she thinks. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The characters of this book are pretty interesting.
Nemesis is very different from other YA heroines. She was meant to be a
bodyguard and not care about her own well-being. She’s like Rose from Vampire
Academy, but with the selflessness of Tris from Divergent. Sidonia is like
Lissa from Vampire Academy, then. Tyrus reminds me of Nikolai from the Grisha
series, though I won’t tell you why, except for some of the narcissistic and
ego-related humor. Some of the characters annoyed me because they talked overly
formally, like they’re from Elizabethan times to something. Some were so shallow
and back-stabbing. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I thought the sci-fi stuff and technology was cool,
except for the genetically modified “creatures” or “humanoids.” Nemesis is not
considered humor because she was engineered. She’s very strong and fast, but
they didn’t give her tear ducts, so she can’t cry. She denies that she feels
thing like other people. She can kill without remorse. It’s likely because she
was nurtured to kill and not part of her nature like she had believed. There
are Exalted, which are hairless innocents grown and cared for during a holiday
week only to be sent into a star to die. There are Harmonoids, engineered only
to play music. There are Servitors who are only meant to serve and have no free
will. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The cool technology includes machines that can change
you appearance easily with genetic alteration. You can have any hair color, eye
color, skin color, facial feature or even change your sex. There are hair
stilts, which can hold you hair in any style you please. There’s also
artificial youth so older folks can look young again. There are medbots to heal
you.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">On the uncool side of things, there are drugs, like opioid
rubs, narcotics and inhaled euphorics, and they’re all legal in the empire and
they use the med bots to fix any problem that occur from them. There’s also the
Helionic religion, in which the worship the Living Cosmos and view any pursuit
of science or mathematics as heresy.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I recommend this to those who enjoyed The Jewel by Amy
Ewing, Red Queen by Victoria Avyard, any book set in space, or book about a
royal court. There is a kind of Capital-esque feel to the court, so I even
recommend it to Hunger Games fans. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Deep in
an ancient network of tunnels and caverns, a weakened Alina must submit to the

Yet her plans lie elsewhere, with the hunt for the elusive firebird and the
hope that an outlaw prince still survives.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

race to find the last of Morozova's amplifiers. But as she begins to unravel
the Darkling's secrets, she reveals a past that will forever alter her
understanding of the bond they share and the power she wields. The firebird is
the one thing that stands between Ravka and destruction—and claiming it could

and Rising is the final book in the Grisha Trilogy. I read the 1<sup>st</sup>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Only
now did I read the second and third books. Siege and Storm was a pretty good
sequel, and Ruin and Rising was a great finale.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Alina’s hair turned white at the end of Seige and
Storm. Why are there so many fantasy books with white-haired girls? Anyways,
her abilities don’t seem to be working and now she’s stuck in a cave with a
bunch of people who think she’s a living saint. The Apparat doesn’t seem to
like her friends and claims they are plotting against her when actually they
were all just trying to break out and her Alina get some sunlight in hopes of
her being able to summon again. Once they get out, they have to find Nikolai,
find the firebird aka the third amplifier, defeat the Darkling and destroy the
Shadowfold. They got a lot on their shoulders. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I really like this fantasy series because it’s so
unique. Ravka is supposed to be like imperial Russia. The palace looks Russian
with onion domes. The language appears to be Russian. Rather than just swords,
there are pistols. It’s more like the 1800s than the middle ages. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The characters are pretty great. Alina is kind of
stubborn like many YA female heroines. Her powers are cool. She can control
light (summon sunlight). Mal is a tracker. He’s not grisha, but her loves
Alina. He’s pretty funny and I love the romance and banter between them.
Nikolai, who pretended to be a privateer named Strumhond in the second book, in
a prince and very funny and clever. He likes to build things, and comes up with
crazy ideas and plans. He made ships that can fly with the help of Squaller
grisha. The Darkling, who is the villain, is complicated. I liked him in the
first book, but I’m not a fan of him. He can control shadows and darkness. Genya
is a tailor is can change people’s appearance. David is a Durast and Genya’s
boyfriend. He’s very smart and jokes go over his head. There are lots of other
characters, like Zoya, Tamar, Toyla, Nadia, and more. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The ending was both surprising and not. I kind of saw
some connects, especially Mal’s. There’s a lot of action and scary
heart-pounding moments. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I’m sure every body’s read this series by now if they
read YA, but if you haven’t, I recommend it to fans of Red Queen, The Young
Elites, The Orphan Queen and Throne of Glass. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Summary/ product description:</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> “Vane Weston is haunted. By
the searing pull of his bond to Audra. By the lies he’s told to cover for her
disappearance. By the treacherous winds that slip into his mind, trying to trap
him in his worst nightmares. And as his enemies grow stronger, Vane doesn't
know how much longer he can last on his own.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">But
Audra’s still running. From her past. From the Gales. Even from Vane, who she
doesn't believe she deserves. And the farther she flees, the more danger she
finds. She possesses the secret power her enemy craves, and protecting it might
be more than she can handle—especially when she discovers Raiden’s newest
weapon.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">With the
Gale Force weakened by recent attacks, and the power of four collapsing, Vane
and Audra are forced to make a choice: keep trusting the failing winds, or turn
to the people who've betrayed them before. But even if they survive the storms
sent to destroy them, will they have anything left to hold on to?”</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Let
the Wind Rise is the 3<sup>rd</sup> and final book in the Sky Fall trilogy. I
waited so long to finally read this series. I decided to series-binge it. I had
copies of the first 2 books autographed and sitting on my shelf for a long
time. I bought the 3rd book. I picked the perfect time of year to read this
because it's set in summertime, in the desert of Southern California. If you
have not read Let The Sky Fall and love paranormal romance and fantasy, then
check it out. It’s very unique, since it’s about Sylphs, which are wind

and making tornadoes. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The series is told from the perspectives of two main
characters, Vane and Audra. I really like Vane. He reminds me of Ethan Wate
from Beautiful Creatures, or David from Steehert (The Reckoners) by Brandon
Sanderson, and Percy Jackson or Magnus Chase from Rick Riordan’s series. He’s a
Westerly and wasn’t aware of it for the last ten years until Audra triggered a
break though and told him. Audra is pretty awesome too. She’s a tough fighter,
a guardian and an Easterly. They fall in love, even though Vane is betrothed to
a princess named Solana. There’s this evil sylph named Raiden who killed her
parent and took over they’re castle. Vane must help Audra and the Gale Force
defeat him. This series has a lot of action and humor and fantasy elements. I
especially love Vane’s inner monologue and his dialogue. He is hilarious. I
wish I could get a boyfriend like him. I wouldn’t want him to be lazy, but Vane’s
defiantly not that lazy anymore. Audra is such a bad-a, and totally got his
butt into shape. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you have not read the series, then stop reading
this review now.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In this final book, Audra is now Raiden’s prisoner, as
well as Gus, a young member of the Gale Force and Vane’s new guardian. Audra
bonded with Vane through a kiss at the end of the first book and through that
bond she knows the Westerly language that Raiden desire to learn. Audra decides
to break that bond to protect the language and it works. She forgets Westerly
completely. She’s also afraid that breaking her bond will affect Vane’s love
for her. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Meanwhile, Vane is planning with the Gale Force and
now the leader, Os, decides he wants to teach them the power of pain, which
means ruining the wind, breaking it. This is because the wind spikes that Vane
wove with the power of four didn’t seem to be defeating the living storms, so
Os have to break a Northerly within it to make it work. Vane is completely
against this evil power of pain stuff. He wants to find a better way, or at
least someone who won’t become a crazy power addict using it. So he seeks out
Aston, an ex-Gale and ex-captive to Raiden and his awful torcher. Aston has
experience with the power of pain and really wants Raiden dead. They also need
Arella, Audra’s criminal mother, and Solana to help them. Vane, Solana, Aston,
and Arella plan a rescue mission to save Audra and Gus, while Audra and Gus are
trying their best to find a way to escape on their own. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And the escape is only part of the book. The rest of
the book is an action-packed finally that will keep your heart racing till the
very end. Will Vane be able to kill Raiden? Will Audra ever forgive her mother?
Will Vane and Audra restore their bond? So many questions. Trust mean, the
ending will leave you breathless. Will Vane and Audra get what they deserve? I
will say I am pleased with the ending. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Summary/
product description:</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
“Vane Weston is haunted. By the searing pull of his bond to Audra. By the lies
he’s told to cover for her disappearance. By the treacherous winds that slip
into his mind, trying to trap him in his worst nightmares. And as his enemies
grow stronger, Vane doesn't know how much longer he can last on his own.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">But
Audra’s still running. From her past. From the Gales. Even from Vane, who she
doesn't believe she deserves. And the farther she flees, the more danger she
finds. She possesses the secret power her enemy craves, and protecting it might
be more than she can handle—especially when she discovers Raiden’s newest
weapon.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">With
the Gale Force weakened by recent attacks, and the power of four collapsing,
Vane and Audra are forced to make a choice: keep trusting the failing winds, or
turn to the people who've betrayed them before. But even if they survive the
storms sent to destroy them, will they have anything left to hold on to?”</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I waited so long to finally read this series.
I decided to series-binge it. I had copies of the first 2 books autographed and
sitting on my shelf for a long time. I bought the 3rd book. I picked the
perfect time of year to read this because it's set in summertime, in the desert
of Southern California. I read the first book, but decided to just do a full
review of the second book. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you have not
read Let The Sky Fall and love paranormal romance and fantasy, then check it
out. It’s very unique, since it’s about Sylphs, which are wind elementals.
There’s a lot of cool Air-bender stuff, like controlling the winds and making
tornadoes. I’m not a fan of tornadoes, but I would definitely like it if I
could control them. I definitely recommend it if you like books about people
who can control the elements or do magic. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I love the
characters. There are not many of them, so they are very easy to keep track of.
The series is told from the perspectives of two main characters, Vane and
Audra. I really like Vane. He reminds me of Ethan Wate from Beautiful Creatures
and Percy Jackson. He’s a Westerly and wasn’t aware of it for the last ten
years until Audra triggered a break though and told him. Audra is pretty
awesome too. She’s a tough fighter, a guardian and an Easterly. I like the
romance between them. It’s sweet, although it’s forbidden. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Audra can now
understand Westerlies though her bond and seems to suddenly have the same aversion
to violence that Vane has because of his Westerly nature. Audra is searching
for something. She flew off somewhere and has been gone almost a month. Vane’s
worried. He keeps having nightmare caused by Raiden (the evil Northerly who
wants to capture him and torture the Westerly language out of him) and because
of this he’s forcing himself to stay awake. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">He’s got two
Gale’s guarding him Feng and Gus. Gus is closer to his age and much more laid
back and has a sense of humor. Feng trains Vane in fighting with Northerlies. I
really like Gus too. He reminds me of Jace from the Mortal Instruments kind of.
Vane’s adoptive parents now know about the Sylph, and are very supportive but
also worried. Vane’s mother especially. Os, the leader of the Gales offers to
take Vane to someplace where he can sleep without Raiden invading his dream,
but it turn out to be a not-so-great place. Not dangerous for him, but it also
holds a prison cell for a murderer. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When he gets
back, he finally meets Solana. The Gale Force (the sylph military and guardian)
seems to expect him to bond with Solana, the last descendent of the royal line
and a Southerly. Vane and Audra already bonded though a kiss in the last book,
and Vane is madly in love, so when he meets Solana, he kind of throw a fit.
Vane’s stubborn and doesn’t want the Gale’s telling him what to do and who to
love. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; punctuation-wrap: simple; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When Audra
returns, everyone must prepare for battle against Raiden. Raiden now has an
even darker power up his sleeve. One that turns Gales into weapons for his own
use. When the battle begins, there’s no telling who will be left standing. This
action-packed sequel will knock the wind out of you leaving you breathless and
your head swirling for more.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Cover Art
Review: I do like the old cover. It reminds me too much of the Hush, Hush
series though. The newer cover is kind of cool, but the type choice seems to
conflict with the image. It almost feels like a cover from a fantasy book from
a decade or more ago. Or even more like a middle grade book. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

in this world, Nil won't let Skye go. Haunted by a darkness she can't ignore,
Skye wrestles with Nil nightmares that worsen by the day and threaten to tear
her apart. As Skye fights to keep her mind intact, she realizes that to finally
break free of Nil, she must end Nil's vicious cycle once and for all--and she
can't do it alone.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">My Review:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Nil on Fire in the final book in the Nil
trilogy. If you have not read the Nil series, it’s worth reading. It has a
tropical island setting and has romance, action and survival. The island of Nil
is only traveled to and from by gates. There are lot of deadly animals there,
and some people. You only get one year to try and catch a gate, or you die. I would
recommend this series to fans of shows like Lost, Naked and Afraid, Man vs Wild
and other shows with survival and islands. Also fans of books like Madman’s
Daughter, Lord of the Flies, Catching Fire, and The Forsaken by Lisa M. Stasse.
Spoilers on the previous two books ahead. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Skye and Rives
may have escaped Nil, but Nil is still haunting Skye. She hears Nil calling her
in her dreams. She thinks Nil wants her to end the islanders’ tradition of crossing
through the gate. Skye, Rives, Thad and Charlie go the island that holds the
gate to Nil. Nil pulls Skye through the gate to the island she never intended
to return to. Rives and Thad end up going through the portal to. Also, Paulo’s
cousin, Lana goes though, and another ex-Nil resident, Zane. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Nil isn’t the
same as when they left it. It seems crueler. The only one they left behind was
Paulo, who says he lost time and that’s why he didn’t go through. More teens
have showed up on Nil since them. The Icelandic guy, Hafthor, the fierce Amara,
the running-back from Alabama, Calvin, two Australians who already knew each
other, Molly and Davey. And that’s just the ones Paulo met. It seems Nil’s been
busy. Skye, Rives and the other have 3 months until the stationary gate opens
and they working on solving the mysteries of Nil and form a plan on how to
destroy. This book in on fire and stuff trly goes down in this awesome finally.

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This final book
is told in alternating perspectives on Rives and Sky mainly, much like Nil
Unlocked, but it have 3<sup>rd</sup> person point of views of other characters
as well as the island’s POV itself. The island is alive, almost like it’s a
goddess or something. Having these other POVs adds to the story telling and
lets us see what’s going on elsewhere. I really wish we got Thad and Charlie’s
1<sup>st</sup> person POVs too, like in the first book. The first book felt
more like a standalone and the next two like a companion duology. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I do like that
there’s more paranormal stuff added to the story. Skye and Rives can
communicate telepathically ever since they left Nil the first time. Some other
characters share connections too. There’s also this ability called the Sight.
Lana says that it’s only gift to women. Ramia had it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">All in all, I
enjoyed this series and really would love to read more books with awesome
island settings. I’ve never been to any tropical islands or even the ocean. Nil
is definitely not an island I’d like to visit. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
