Aurora Rising by Amie Kaufman My rating: 4 of 5 stars Aurora Rising is the first book in a new series from co-authors Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff.

The Undying – Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner
Undying by Amie Kaufman My rating: 4 of 5 stars Undying, the second book in the Unearthed duology feels like a very different book than its predecessor – although I still really enjoyed it.

Deviate – Jay Kristoff
DEV1AT3 by Jay Kristoff My rating: 4 of 5 stars Deviate (Dev1at3) is the second book in the Lifelike (Lifel1k3) series by Jay Kristoff.

Heart of Iron – Ashley Poston
Heart of Iron by Ashley Poston My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is not an Anastasia retelling. It is inspired by Anastasia those are two very different things and I don’t want people to be misled before going into the book and have it negatively affect their opinion. If it was retelling we would’ve…

Gemina – Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff
Gemina by Amie Kaufman My rating: 5 of 5 stars In some series, the second book experiences the dreaded sophomore slump. This is not one of those cases. As much as I dearly loved Illuminae, I fell even more in love with Gemina upon my reread. As a result, I had to bump Illuminae down…
