Knowing the outcome doesn’t always make a choice easier . . .

Addison Coleman’s life is one big “What if?” As a Searcher, whenever Addie is faced with a choice, she can look into the future and see both outcomes. It’s the ultimate insurance plan against disaster. Or so she thought. When Addie’s parents ambush her with the news of their divorce, she has to pick who she wants to live with—her father, who is leaving the paranormal compound to live among the “Norms,” or her mother, who is staying in the life Addie has always known. Addie loves her life just as it is, so her answer should be easy. One Search six weeks into the future proves it’s not.

In one potential future, Addie is adjusting to life outside the Compound as the new girl in a Norm high school where she meets Trevor, a cute, sensitive artist who understands her. In the other path, Addie is being pursued by the hottest guy in school—but she never wanted to be a quarterback’s girlfriend. When Addie’s father is asked to consult on a murder in the Compound, she’s unwittingly drawn into a dangerous game that threatens everything she holds dear. With love and loss in both lives, it all comes down to which reality she’s willing to live through . . . and who she can’t live without.
 
 



Memorable Quote



His deep, even breaths and the steady beat of his heart lull me.  My breath has warmed the little cocoon I've created against him.  He smells spicy, like cologne and salt.  The skin on his neck is soft on my nose and I push it further into him until my lips rest against him.  My finger traces back and forth over his collarbone and my mouth brushes along his neck until it finds the skin right behind his earlobe, which is even softer. 




My Review

Let's be honest: I add a LOT of books to my GoodReads to-be-read, and I'm usually excited when I add them.  But when I saw the stunning cover for Pivot Point, then read the synopsis, something told me this book would be different - special.  And having read it, cried, flailed, and swooned over Kasie West's debut novel, I can happily say I was right.  Pivot Point brought to life so many vibrant characters, and Kasie's book left me with a heart that was half full, and half empty, as I realized how long I would need to wait for the sequel.  

There are reviews I write where I can be impartial, and then there are reviews where I just want to hug a copy of the book I'm reviewing; Pivot Point made me want to do the latter.   I clicked with Addie right away.  I don't talk about it much, but my parents briefly separated when I was 15, and I wasn't given a choice where I wanted to go during that six months.  They reconciled, but I remember being so anxious and sad, just like Addie.  As soon as she decided to use her talent to Search her possible futures, I tensed up.  And here's when I realized Kasie West was on to something: I, quite literally, stayed tense through the ENTIRE NOVEL.  That NEVER EVER happens.  I was THAT caught up in Addie's story.  And let me tell you, folks, Addie is an amazing lead character: smart, strong, REAL.  

The characters are what make Pivot Point so fantastic.  The premise by itself is pretty spectacular, and I enjoyed learning about the various citizens inside the Compound: Searchers, Discerners, Telekentics, and more.  Kasie West's world-building was phenomenal.  I never doubted it, and I felt like I was really there, both inside the Compound, and in the juxtaposition of the "Normal" world.  But all these lives revolving around incredible mental abilities wouldn't have been anything if not for the characters.  Addie, Laila, Trevor, and others began to feel like people I knew, not just characters.  

Pivot Point is unique for so many reasons; despite our glimpses of Addie's two VERY different futures, the pacing was so smooth, never jerky.  And although we see Addie with two absolutely oil-and-water love interests, because of the circumstances, there isn't a love triangle.  Both Duke and Trevor add a lot to the story, but I knew I had chosen my side when I found myself looking forward to one character's appearances over the other.  I don't want to give too much away, but I want to tell y'all: the romance is high-level SWOON-WORTHY.  And the descriptions, and little moments between Addie and my favorite guy?  I felt like - I - was experiencing my first love all over again.  

Pivot Point is a thrilling journey full of mystery, and moments that left me almost breathless.  I laughed, I cried.  I anticipated, and I feared for the characters.  When it was over, I sat there, still tense, and crying.  I didn't want Pivot Point to end, and now that it has, I'm going to have to find some way of coping until I can beg, borrow, or steal a copy of the sequel.

Being connected to Daemon Black sucks…  Thanks to his alien mojo, Daemon’s determined to prove what he feels for me is more than a product of our bizarro connection. So I’ve sworn him off, even though he’s running more hot than cold these days. But we’ve got bigger problems.

Something worse than the Arum has come to town…  The Department of Defense are here. If they ever find out what Daemon can do and that we're linked, I’m a goner. So is he. And there's this new boy in school who’s got a secret of his own. He knows what’s happened to me and he can help, but to do so, I have to lie to Daemon and stay away from him. Like that's possible. Against all common sense, I'm falling for Daemon. Hard.

But then everything changes…  I’ve seen someone who shouldn’t be alive. And I have to tell Daemon, even though I know he’s never going to stop searching until he gets the truth. What happened to his brother? Who betrayed him? And what does the DOD want from them—from me?

No one is who they seem. And not everyone will survive the lies…




My Review

Every time I finish a book by Jennifer L Armentrout, I'm speechless for one reason or another.  With her unparallelled ability to create intimately identifiable characters, and sizzling love interest, not to mention heart-pounding storylines, I went into Onyx with high expectations, and finished this brilliant addition to her Lux series with sky-high hopes for the sequel.  Spirited book blogger Katy and insufferable, swoon-worthy Daemon Black add layers of depth and emotion to this installment, which is made even more intense by the mysteries and betrayals swirling through the community.  

Everything I thought I knew about these character and this series was turned on its head in Onyx, and in a good way.  JLA added character growth to Katy, who became so much more than she was in Obsidian.  Daemon surprised me so many times, with his affection and respect for Katy, with how he encouraged her to grow, with his need to protect her.  I lost count of the number of times I swooned over him!  And then there were several new characters who I'd think had one agenda, then realize really had an entirely different one.  JLA kept me guessing, and I liked that!

I loved so much about Onyx: Daemon's trademark one-liners, all the unexpected humor, and especially the changing relationships.  I wondered how long Katy could resist Daemon, because - I - couldn't resist him.  And I have to say, JLA masterfully handled the various plot lines, weaving them seamlessly into one another.  Not many authors could have a white-hot romance simmering to a burning point while the DOD circles, endangering all the characters we love - but JLA does it.  And yet even admidst the peril, these characters retain what makes them all so lovable, and their voices still seem genuine.  

I ran the gamut of emotions with Onyx: I laughed, so often.  I cried.  I screamed.  I wanted to hit something, then hug everyone.  I can't even begin to express my relief at some points, and my frustration at others.   JLA has penned a game-changer with Onyx: nothing will be the same for Katy or Daemon after this, and I for one, cannot wait to get my hands on Opal to see what comes next.

Camden Pike has been grief-stricken since his girlfriend, Viv, died. He’d give anything to have just one more glimpse of her. But when Cam visits the site of Viv’s deadly car accident, he sees an apparition. Her name is Nina, and she’s a girl from a parallel world. When Cam follows here there and makes an unbelievable discovery, it’s as if all his wildest dreams have come true. 

But things are very different in this other world. Nina is hiding a secret, and the window between the worlds is shrinking every day. As Cam comes to terms with the truth, he’s forced to make a choice that will change his life forever.

  





My Review
 
I've waited after finishing Through To You to write my review, because I knew it would be difficult to find the words to express my thoughts on this debut novel; I pined for it for so long that I had begun to wonder if it could live up to my expectations.  Did it?  Yes, and then some!  I finished it a few weeks ago and my heart is still somewhat broken, yet healed.  

Emily Hainsworth combined two of my favorite aspects of YA literature into one stellar, gorgeous package with Through To You: a male narrator (not often seen!), and alternate universes.  When this book arrived in ARC form, I did a dance.  I'm a HUGE fan of all things time-travel and just wibbly-wobbly things in general, so I knew right away that this book was going to earn a special place in my heart, and it did.  The premise hooked me, but I fell in love with the characters: broken Camden, mysterious Nina, and Viv, as seen through everyone else's eyes.  I love books who make a deceased character just as important of a presence as if he/she were alive.  

I traveled with Cam, down the rabbit hole and into a world where much has changed, and yet nothing has changed.  I was just as hopeful as he was, with given a second chance to make a different choice.  Hainsworth explores several gripping themes in Through To You - most notably the question of: "what would YOU do differently?"  Seeing Cam's world from two perspectives, two totally different angles was as fascinating as it was devastating.   I could see where Emily was taking her story, but nothing could have loosened my grip on this powerful novel, just like everyone who warned Cam couldn't break through - like the reader, Cam had to make his own way for himself, even if that meant giving up everything he thought he couldn't live without.  Cam grew as a character, and made some incredibly difficult decisions, and was better for it. 

Through To You is a heart-wrenchingly beautiful novel, one of love, loss, hope, and fear.  Emily Hainsworth doesn't shy away from grief, and how hard it hits, and how there is nothing bigger in the moment that it strikes you, then the agony you're feeling.  But by the time I read the last page of Through To You, I realized that this wonderful book is about something else too - beginnings.

Incapable. Awkward. Artless.  That’s what the other girls whisper behind her back. But sixteen year-old Adelice Lewys has a secret: she wants to fail.

Gifted with the ability to weave time with matter, she’s exactly what the Guild is looking for, and in the world of Arras, being chosen as a Spinster is everything a girl could want. It means privilege, eternal beauty, and being something other than a secretary. It also means the power to embroider the very fabric of life. But if controlling what people eat, where they live and how many children they have is the price of having it all, Adelice isn’t interested.

Not that her feelings matter, because she slipped and wove a moment at testing, and they’re coming for her—tonight.

Now she has one hour to eat her mom’s overcooked pot roast. One hour to listen to her sister’s academy gossip and laugh at her Dad’s stupid jokes. One hour to pretend everything’s okay. And one hour to escape.

Because once you become a Spinster, there’s no turning back.




My Review

Crewel was on my radar for some time before I was lucky enough to win an ARC, and even now that I've finished it, it's one of those rare books that I wish I had the time to re-read once everything has settled a bit after reading the final page.  Crewel is a richly woven tapestry - a story of hope, obedience, fear, secrets, and revolution.  As a reader, I clung eagerly to every bit of information I could get my hands on, and was happy to wait for my answers - instead of the classic and unfortunate info-dump, Albin reveals things over time.  Between the underlying struggles between the male dominated society, and the females who want power, mixed in with the science-fiction elements, and the beautiful, if fleeting romance that develops, there is something for everyone in Gennifer Albin's debut novel.

Led by a fantastically self-aware heroine, Adelice, Crewl isn't like anything I've ever read before.   Living in a segregated community, Adelice was taught to carefully hide her abilities, and it's led to her becoming sheltered.  But there's also a LOT of strength in this girl, strength and grit that she shows throughout Crewel.  I applauded when Adelice stood up for herself, and I for one cannot wait to see who she becomes in the sequel.  In a cast of ruthless characters, like power-hungry Maela and Ambassador Cormac Patton, everyone has their own agenda, but Adelice holds her own.  

Her innocence is definitely stripped away, but in the wake of that, we see a lovely romance burgeoning between Adelice and one of my other favorite characters.  And no, I won't tell you who - but trust me, you will WANT to find out for yourself because although there was a small hint of a love triangle, it was SO clear to me who Adelice belongs with.  Both of the guys that come to care for Adelice are perfectly swoon-worthy in different ways, but the particular one I fell for really swept me off my feet.  He and Adelice moved a little too fast for my taste, but found their own unique way to spend a good deal of time together getting closer. 

Crewel touched me on many levels.  I found reasons to laugh and reasons to cry.  The actual premise is only barely touched on in the synopsis - there's a great deal more going on that I discovered as I read.  Gennifer Albin brings several layers to the story, beyond the surface description of what the Spinsters do.  We learned along with Adelice, and discovered the various agendas and politics behind the scenes - and that not everyone called to serve lives a glamorous life.  Albin cleverly reveals just enough to spin my head around as I feverishly turned the pages, needing MORE - more answers, more of these characters.  Concepts of weaving, ripping, and cleansing had me begging for more explanations!  By the time I finished Crewel, I realized the wait for the sequel is going to be an extremely long one, during which I'll probably need to buy my own copy of Crewel to re-read to pass the time!  If you're going to read Crewel, I'd advise you to set aside a whole day of un-interrupted reading, and be prepared to have your mind blown!

Abby Leigh is looking forward to watching the moon turn purple. For months, astronomers have been predicting that Earth will pass through the tail of a comet. They say that people will see colorful sunsets and, best of all, a purple moon.

But nobody has predicted the lightning-fast epidemic that sweeps across the planet on the night of the purple moon. The comet brings space dust with it that contains germs that attack human hormones. Older teens and adults die within hours of exposure.

On a small island off the coast of Maine, Abby must help her brother and baby sister survive in this new world, but all the while she has a ticking time bomb inside of her -- adolescence.





My Review

Night of the Purple Moon gripped me tightly immediately, with a fast-paced introduction that catapulted me into the premise Scott Cramer created.  As the world prepares for a comet sighting unlike no other, teenager Abby Leigh hopes it also means her world will return to normal - that her mother's visit will put her family back on the right track.  Instead, Abby wakes the following morning after the world turns purple to a nightmare: everyone past the age of puberty is either dead or dying.  

Trapped on the small island her father relocated them too, Abby has to dig deep inside of herself and find the strength to keep going, and to lead the surviving children.  I can't imagine that kind of character, pushing on despite her constant fear: that everyone is gone, including her mother, that no one is left to develop a cure, that if they do, it will be too late for her.  Cramer propels Night of the Purple Moon forward through occasional dual POV - Abby, her younger brother, Jordan, and a few other minor characters.  Each chapter covers a new month, and while in some cases, that might have been a fractured pacing, instead, it worked very well in this instance, as we see the surviving children and pre-teens starting to form a community.  

I have to say, reading Scott Cramer's novel was sobering and terrifying.  I can't even fathom knowing that your own body changing could lead to your death!  Even though the premise is a somewhat far-fetched, it is also still believable, because of the genuine fear and mystery Cramer interjects into this story.  This is still realistic science fiction.  

Night of the Purple Moon is a story full of equal measures of fear and hope.  There's a great deal of character growth for both Abby and Jordan, although not as much for the secondary characters.  This is a short novel, so Cramer didn't have as much of an opportunity to develop the supporting characters, although I definitely felt for several of them, like KK and Colby.  There's a definite sense toward the end that our main characters are literally racing against the clock, and I was hanging on every word, NEEDING to know how everything played out.  

Overall despite a few points that I would have loved to seen explored or explained more, and some characters that fell a bit flat for me, Night of the Purple Moon is a genuinely good story with a believable premise.  It's almost more of a middle grade story, since there isn't really any strong language or anything sexual - just mentions of kissing - so it's also incredibly sweet and tender in two or three moments.  I look forward to seeing what else Scott Cramer writes!

Anna and Bennett were never supposed to meet: she lives in 1995 Chicago and he lives in 2012 San Francisco. But Bennett’s unique ability to travel through time and space brings him into Anna’s life, and with him, a new world of adventure and possibility.

As their relationship deepens, they face the reality that time might knock Bennett back where he belongs, even as a devastating crisis throws everything they believe into question. Against a ticking clock, Anna and Bennett are forced to ask themselves how far they can push the bounds of fate—and what consequences they can bear in order to stay together.

Fresh, exciting, and deeply romantic, TIME BETWEEN US is a stunning and spellbinding debut from an extraordinary new talent in YA fiction.





My Review

Have you ever read a book that filled something inside you that you didn't even know was empty, opened your eyes to aspects of your own life that needed reexamining?  Have you ever sat for long moments after finishing a book, letting the emotions it brought to your surface swell inside you until they crash over you, like a wave?  Have you ever missed the characters you were reading about, because they meant so much to you?  If so, then you know what my experience reading Time Between Us was like.  

I knew I had to read this one from the first synopsis on Goodreads: "about a girl who meets a boy who can hold her hands and take her anywhere."  Then came the gorgeous cover, which I was in love with...and THEN, finally, the moment when I started Tamara Ireland Stone's novel, and was at once completely and totally invested in Anna and Bennett's story.  Although the story is only told from Anna's point of view, both she and Bennett are such amazingly beautiful characters - each flawed in their own ways, yet also incredible identifiable and relatable.  There was never a moment when I didn't feel like I KNEW Bennett and Anna.  While I was reading their story, they were as real to me as people I pass on the street.  Watching them interact, every minute between them pulsed with a heartbeat, with meaning, with love and longing and loss, and it was just fantastic.  

I've read several time travel novels (and I'm definitely the biggest Doctor Who fan - I - know) so it's safe to say that I adore all things time travel.  But Stone puts a new spin on what we think we know, and I really enjoyed Bennett's explanations of what he can - andn can't - do, as well as watching Anna try to piece it all together.  I felt like I was in Anna's head, figuring it out along with her.  The pacing of Time Between Us was so balanced, between revelations and slower moments with Anna and her family or friends, or Bennett.  Stone gave those various relationships time to develop sweetly, and it led to fuller characters, and a sense of belonging on my part, as a reader.  I felt like I was being given a glimpse into Anna's world, and I cherished that.  

I read Time Between Us in a matter of hours, at once wanting - needing - to know what happened next, yet also wanting to savor each word.  The characters were all real, as mentioned, and I loved watching Anna interact with those around her.  I can't even really put into words my love for Anna and Bennett.  From their auspicious beginning, which is beautifully explained later, to Stone laying the foundations for their friendship, and ultimately the deep sense of caring between them, I was falling for their relationship just as much as they were for one another.   Anna and Bennett are an extremely poignant example of a first, sweet love where two people are good for one another, though not without their failings.  My heart broke for each of them, separate and together, more than once, especially at the threat of time keeping them apart.  

What I liked best about Tamara Ireland Stone's magnificent debut novel was the character growth.  I'm a HUGE fan of characters who grow and change over the course of a novel, and both Bennett and Anna certainly did that.  I cried more than once for and with Anna as she struggled to see what was right in front of her, and to learn to be truly brave, and my heart went out to Bennett, too.  In the end, they both became incredibly strong people, and as I closed the last page of Time Between Us, I had tears drying on my cheeks, cherishing their love and their decisions and their courage.  

I won't soon forget Time Between Us, or the lasting impression Anna and Bennett's story made on me.  It's been about two weeks (at the time I'm writing this review in August) since I finished it, and I'm still wondering what Bennett and Anna will be up to next.  Stone's debut novel is a truly beautiful one, filled with heart-wrenching moments, and yet also, there is hope scrawled indelibly across the pages, too.

It was just another ordinary day at McKinley High—until a massive explosion devastated the school. When loner David Thorpe tried to help his English teacher to safety, the teacher convulsed and died right in front of him. And that was just the beginning.

A year later, McKinley has descended into chaos. All the students are infected with a virus that makes them deadly to adults. The school is under military quarantine. The teachers are gone. Violent gangs have formed based on high school social cliques. Without a gang, you’re as good as dead. And David has no gang. It’s just him and his little brother, Will, against the whole school.

In this frighteningly dark and captivating novel, Lex Thomas locks readers inside a school where kids don’t fight to be popular, they fight to stay alive.





My Review

As soon as I began Quarantine, I knew I was in for a wild, heart-pounding ride, with non-stop action and an easily detectable current of danger that constantly dragged me under and into the story being told.   Author Lex Thomas (a writing team made up of Lex Hrabe and Thomas Voorhies) takes readers into a world like our own, yet different.  There's truth in the tagline, "graduate or die."  In Quarantine, the stakes are high from the beginning, and never lessen.  Whereas for most of us, high school is about finding out who we are, for these characters it's about surviving the epidemic that caused the government to seal them into their high school.  While I at first found that part difficult to believe - that the government would abandon so many people, and only send in food and basic supplies every two weeks - the authors convinced me.  I was quickly drawn in to the battleground that once was McKinley High.  

The characters are all well-developed, and they feel real; they're the kids you went to school with, only now they're fighting for their lives.  Brothers David and Will were opposites, yet fiercely loyal to one another.  Each of the gangs that the kids devolve into were startlingly pragmatic and real.  I was fascinated by the trading system, almost like a black market, that was established, and it was shocking to see how much some characters changed from who they were at the start.  I never knew who to trust, or how to predict what might happen next!

This type of story isn't normally my cup of tea; however, even though I found a few parts of Quarantine to be too convenient, I did enjoy the story being told.  The story definitely kept my attention, but I wish I had been able to connect with the characters more.  I'm not sure if I'll read the following novels, since to me, this felt more like a stand alone.  However, Lex Thomas knows how to write a tense nail-biter of a story, how to electrify a reader's darkest fears for humanity, and how to keep readers turning pages!    


Author Guest Post: The Best Kept Secret of McKinley High...

Every locker holds a surprise. In one you might find a forgotten jacket or backpack or school supplies still there from the first day of school. If you’re enterprising, you might trade that stuff in the market for food. In another locker, you might find someone’s secret stash of food, weapons and goodies that they’ve been squirreling away in case they fall on hard times. But then there’s always the chance that the next locker you open is a grave. There have been a lot of deaths in McKinley, and those bodies have to go somewhere. Good thing the halls are lined with coffin-sized metal boxes....

And PS - always remember that if you’re being chased, a locker makes for a quick and easy hiding place. Just avoid the ones that say RIP.
