3 out of 5 stars The action and story go up in this series finale, but the heroine of Book 3 drags like an anchor. Goodreads.com: Their Fractured Light, by Aime Kaufman and Meagan Spooner (Starbound #3) The galaxy-spanning, dimension-crossing culmination of the Starbound series, Their Fractured Light brings the two main characters from each … Continue reading Review: Their Fractured Light
3.5 out of 5 stars A Book 2 with more grit and less googly-eyed staring = +.25 stars. Goodreads.com: This Shattered World, by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner (Starbound #2) I love series that spin-off internally, then allow the characters from multiple books to encounter each other. I don't mean dusting off Jace & Clary … Continue reading Review: This Shattered World

Before I jump into by TBR list for 2018 (that's a lie, I've already started), here are my favorite books that I read in 2017. Some were published well before this year, … Continue reading My Favorite Books of 2017
4.5 out of 5 stars When you pick up a sequel, you expect to pick up where the first book left off. Gemina is so good it starts a new story, in a new place, and kicks just as much ass as Illuminae.
