Insurgent by Veronica Roth cover

Insurgent

…involves Tris’ somewhat self-inflicted guilt and confusion- in fact, as sadistic as this sounds, I rather enjoyed seeing the flaws in her (and Four’s, it must be said) character(s) fleshed out. Even in the middle of a revolution, relationships are unstable! However, whilst I was satisfied by the character development shown in Tris and Four, I was rather let down by the fact that the majority of the “background” characters- the mincemeat for the ki… Continue reading

Partials by Dan Wells cover

Partials

…nt. The population must be stabilised. But it’s not working: every newborn dies of RM, a manufactured virus that culled the human population after its introduction. These pages introduce us to sixteen year old medic Kira, a girl with dreams. Dreams of curing a crippled nation. Kira is strong-willed and dedicated: she would sacrifice herself in the hope of a cure. And like all good characters, Wells knows that strengths can become weaknesses very q… Continue reading

Between Shades of Gray UK YA, UK Adult and Polish Covers

Cover Chat #4 – Between Shades of Gray

…his is a new meme that has a slightly different take on the UK vs US cover comparison features many bloggers have. If you want to find out more about why Cover Chat is different, or how to participate, read the “official” Cover Chat Page. Today, myself and Andrew from The Emancipation of the Pewter Wolf will talk about the UK YA, UK Adult and Polish covers of Between Shades of Gray, by Ruta Sepetys. The US and UK YA cover are the same, so I decide… Continue reading

Imperial Spy by Mark Robson cover

Imperial Spy

…this is the last thing you need, and Femke is trying to prove she did not commit the crime. But the murderer is always two steps ahead… The fact that this book is in the fantasy genre, may put some of you off, with hundreds of cliched high fantasy novels around. There’s no need to worry, though. Imperial Spy is highly original, and certainly I have never read anything similar, and I am well read in the fantasy genre. This isn’t one of those hero-… Continue reading

The Killables by Gemma Malley cover

The Killables

…I felt distant from the novel, the characters felt somehow as if they were underperforming and Malley’s prose got to my head more than once. It must be remembered, though, that these are very subjective and vary greatly from person to person. For a novel to reach excellence, I have one criteria: it must give me the buzz factor. And the buzz factor is hard to pin down and divide into its component parts but one thing is for sure: I know (and you pr… Continue reading

Touch of Power by Maria V. Snyder cover

Touch of Power

…s thoughts or give any explanation whatsoever apart from that Avry is a wonderfully compassionate and moral person, which isn’t an explanation at all. Touch of Power is a good book. My disappointment isn’t that Snyder wrote something awful: it’s that she could have done so much better. In an oft male dominated genre, a female touch is a breath of fresh air: cutting out the unnecessary fetishes for fantasy that some male writers have and cutting to… Continue reading

Legend by Marie Lu cover

Legend

…(I almost got bored in the first 100 pages or so), things do pick up considerably once our two protagonists’ stories collide- which is when the fun really begins. As well as that, Lu does good job of making both narratives equally entertaining, which is a rare feat. Legend is one of those books that could get away with bloody murder and still be an entertaining read. In fact, it does get away with bloody murder at times (figuratively and literall… Continue reading

Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor cover

Daughter of Smoke and Bone

…nce, Daughter of Smoke and Bone loses its way ever so slightly from the wonderful mythology Taylor sets out. Instead of continuing on a quest around the world involving the aforementioned demons and angels, we’re “treated” to romance that, while making sense in hindsight, is rather uninspiring to read about, detracting from the wonderful fantastical elements that really make this book. However, this is soon recovered and the ending is as strong as… Continue reading
