Book Review:

A NY Times Bestseller, A Booklist Best First Novel and Editors' Choice, An Amazon Best YA Book, and a Paste Magazine # 1 Young Adult Book, this was a debut novel getting a lot of attention! I was so shell-shocked impressed with Adam Silvera's work. It was a realistic YA novel with a message that was beyond so precious and important right now. Anyone with a soft spot for literature that promotes the journey to self-love and acceptance is going to love this book! It's real and raw and anyone who reads will hopefully be more conscious of the way that they treat others. Lovers of Ned Vizzini's It's Kind of a Funny Story will immediately latch on to this book, with the similar aesthetic but still unique voice. 

Follow the story of 16 year old Aaron Soto, struggling to find happiness in the midst of what he faces in life. Is he willing to risk forgetting himself for a memory-alteration procedure from the Leteo Institute to find happiness again?

Grab this book immediately! But be warned- anyone who reads this novel will forever more be a follower of Adam Silvera's writing. There's a guarantee that his name will be showing up in the literature realm for years to come. 

Trilogy Review

OK. I know I've been gone for quite some time. I apologize.

But, I took some time to read an entire trilogy for review! I also may or may not have started school, and binge-watched four TV shows in my absence. Anyways...

This trilogy was Awesome!! It was interesting reading three books that all took place over a timeline of just a few weeks. And this is a bonus; the third book was just recently released! If you want to pick this series up you won't have to wait to finish it!!






Derting did an amazing job building characters that were lovable but my favorite thing about her writing was the fact that I was always on my toes. I never had any idea what to expect because there was always a new element or cool plot twist in effect. This was especially important for me because usually when I pick up any Sci-Fi or Apocalyptic Alien novels I like for them to not be stereotypical. Kimberly did an amazing job!! In the beginning, I felt like I was being mislead because there was a lot more YA Teen style events rather than anything that had to do with alien invasions but by the end of the series I was completely transfixed in the perfect combination of the two.

Follow the story of Kyra Agnew. She woke up not remembering what happened, thinking she only lost one night of memories, only to find that five years have passed. And she is the only one who hasn't aged or doesn't remember. Her dad crazily believes she was abducted by aliens, and before long she doesn't disagree. Her parents are now divorced, her best friend is in college dating Kyra's boyfriend- or ex boyfriend. She doesn't know how to process the fact that she lost five years of her life and can't remember a thing. She turns to her ex boyfriends little brother Tyler, who is not so little now that five years have gone by, and together what they discover is out of this world. Will Kyra ever be a normal human again?

An unforgettable Sci-Fi trilogy, I highly recommend you pick it up!! Now I need to grieve over the fact that I've finished reading a series and it's all over.
