GENESIS (The Rosie Black Chronicles #1) by Lara Morgan

January 14, 2014

GENESIS (The Rosie Black Chronicles #1) by Lara MorganSpace and Mars aren’t usually my thing but when it comes to Genesis, it turns out that doesn’t really matter. In fact, that setting, along with Earth is what made this book all the more thrilling. Set 500 years into the future, enough humans have settled down on Mars that children are already born on that planet. Pip is one of them, which makes him stand out among the Ferals on Earth, although not any less menacing to Rosie, a Banker.

HOW TO LEAD A LIFE OF CRIME by Kirsten Miller

December 11, 2013

It took me a few days to recover from this one. Don’t take it the wrong way. I have so much love for How to Lead a Life of Crime! I can’t think of a book I have read the past couple of years that can even remotely compare! Reading this book caused an internal…

THE ORIGINALS by Cat Patrick

November 26, 2013

To an outsider Lizzie, Ella and Betsy look like ordinary triplets. They each have their distinct tastes and personalities that set them apart. But they are more than triplets. They are clones. It’s no wonder that their mother wants to keep them sheltered, especially from government corporations that would treat them differently from human beings….
