I'm liking the timeline here! Very easy to find books I read. It's nice to see them by month.
DrSofie's Escape from Reality
My 'escape from reality': sci-fi, fantasy, YA, classic lit
I liked the main character but just didn't feel any connection with any other person introduced. I figured the twist early on and it just wasn't compelling. I feel bad because the first 3rd of the book was actually interesting. It fell flat after that though. I will probably not read the rest of the series.
Big improvement from the first book of the series. Fast paced and interesting "X-men" capabilities.Warner's development was a big surprise.
Much better world-building and characters developed well. I liked that the colonies were not as expected for the characters. Looking forward to last book of trilogy.
The tragedy of the story was realistic. However, the double standard of the main character at the end really killed it for me. Could have been a 4-star.
Better than the first, but still skimmed a lot of the parts.
Wowzers what a great series....but oh my the ending...!!!

God this was so sad.
Epic and breathtakingly beautiful
3.5 starsI studied and work in Newark and found Parks' descriptions of the city so accurate I thought I was reading non-fiction! I plot kept my interest, although it only gets 3.5 stars because there were a couple of times I thought the MC did really stupid things...too stupid. He's not a super hero, just an investigative reporter, but still, some decisions he made were so naive it was almost unbelievable. But overall, I thought the plot was engrossing and the MC likeable. I would read more from this "series".
A classic. Plain and simple.
I couldn't stand the end.
The one book that I can read over and over again without getting tired. My all-time favorite.
