Book Review – Armada

Book Review – Armada

  Lynn’s Review: If you’ve ever read a contemporary science fiction book and wondered why there is no mention of any other contemporary science fiction in the book, then Armada is the book for you. In Armada, Ernest Cline posits that for forty years, society has been enjoying science fiction in movies, tv, and books […]

Red Rising Review

Red Rising Review

 Julie’s Review: My feelings on Red Rising have flopped back and forth from “woa this is awesome/shocking” to “ugh so slow”. Let’s back up – this book is praised all over, and is often compared to The Hunger Games (well, all dystopia books are anyway). I didn’t really think of this as a YA, and […]

Book Review – Traveler

Book Review – Traveler

  Lynn’s Review: Think back to June 7, when our Chat Between the Chapters topic was sci fi. Terri from Second Run Reviews mentioned a book – Traveler. Full disclosure time: I won a copy from her blog and author Dennis W. Green. (Thanks again Terri and Dennis!) And Terri was correct. Traveler is a […]

Solace by Therin Knite Review

Solace by Therin Knite Review

 Julie’s Review: This review is structured with the help of questions from Audible.com. What did you love best about Solace? Solace really surprised me in how deep and philosophical it got while Corina was getting to know the boy, then the man, who would become her father. A story about a girl getting a chance […]

The Rules Review

The Rules Review

 Julie’s Review: The Rules is a series that I can definitely see has some potential but the first book wasn’t as good as I hoped it would be. The series is called Project Paper Doll, and I’m not too sure what that means, actually. From the redesigned covers, it looks like a bunch of dolls […]

Uglies Review

Uglies Review

 Julie’s Review: Uglies is a pretty good dystopia where at age 16, everyone gets an operation to make them pretty – as opposed to the uglies they are now. I liked that the novel explored what we as people think is beauty (symmetrical faces, little body fat, etc) but also explored the truth behind the […]
