There is something that just happens, something that just clicks when you read an amazing story. You start off not knowing what you're getting yourself into and then somewhere along the way you start falling for those characters and rooting for them. The most amazing part of all of this is when an author can make it so seamless that you cannot even pinpoint when it occurs. Jus Accardo has that ability. With Infinity, this story is such a mind-whirlwind that you cannot help but instantly be invested with and I loved every minute of it.
I have to admit, I adored the way this story started off. Our main character Kori, is an artist and that right there was an instant quality I loved about her. However, I wish we revisited this opening scene or location (without giving anything away) and I hope that if there are future books, it will come up again. With all that being said, Kori is such a strong protagonist. She is spunky, takes no crap, athletic, adventurous, and probably the most important selfless. You cannot help but stand behind her during every decision.
With our other characters, I honestly have to say I really liked Noah. He is so strong through and through. At first, you are not completely sure of his M.O. or what he is thinking but as the story continues you get to watch Noah change and develop, and I adored that. Cade was a little bit of a different story for me. I definitely rooted for him and Kori, however I didn't fall in love with him as much as I wanted to. Maybe it was the instant click with him and Kori (for obvious reasons), I'm not completely sure. Then again, with some people when you know... you just know, right?
The concepts in Infinity instantly made me love this book. I am such a sci-fi, suspense, romance guru and it definitely gets my book-loving going when a story combines all three. Infinity is definitely another stunner from Jus Accardo and I cannot wait to see where this story goes to, literally.

This was a quick read and a relatively enjoyable one. I went back and forth a lot of times between liking the story and just wanting to roll my eyes at it. The characters were pretty good and the idea behind the book interesting. But there were just some things that were so ridiculous to border on stupid. Just one example: am I really supposed to believe that half of a US army base is going to be used to track down and take in one wayward girl? Even if she is a general's daughter, there is just no way that I would believe that. And don't get me started on the end. I knew what was going to happen with the characters long before we even got there, and I had no problem with it, but the reason behind it? Forget bordering on stupid.
I also went back and forth with Kori. Sometimes I loved how she talked/acted/thought, but other times she really ticked me off. She could be so immature and would make the worst decisions because she just wouldn't think.
The one character I liked was Noah. He was great to have around and if I end up reading the next book, I'm sure he'll be my favorite again.
Cade and Dylan are obviously key people in the story, but really weren't that memorable. Though Dylan does seem to like this Kori a lot more than the rest judging by his actions throughout and that could prove to be interesting going forward.
So Kori is the daughter of an important General. She lost her mother a while back and since then, even though she knows he loves her, her father has been more distant than ever. She has always moved around a lot so she isn't really close to anybody and finds happiness pretty much only in her art. When her dad leaves on another trip, he sends people to pretty much babysit her like he always does. This time though, they are nothing like what Kori is used to or would even expect for military guys. And as her world gets flipped upside down she finds out why. Cade and Noah are from an alternate Earth and they are there to stop Cade's brother, Dylan, from his murderous rampage of revenge. Which includes Kori, her dad, and three other people. Until now they have always been one step behind him, but this Kori is so unlike any other Kori that Dylan changes things up a bit. While Cade, Noah, and Kori are running around trying to find people before Dylan, before they die after he finds them first, or someone just for him, we find out about Cade's world along with Kori. And about how in almost every Earth the two of them are in love. This Kori couldn't be more different from his Kori, but Cade's feelings for her seem to be much more intense. And as for Kori, she can't help the attraction towards him no matter what she tells herself. When Dylan's deadline for the three of them approaches they come up with a plan to try and fool him. While the group fails in some ways, they succeed in others. And Kori makes her choice that will take her to unknown places, but just maybe she'll be able to see her mom again...as well as get her chance with Cade who never existed on her Earth.
I did like this book enough that I think, given the chance, I would check out the next one.

A bomb? Really? A bomb?? That was just dumb and so unbelievable. There were so many other ways to get to that ending that would have be better.I also went back and forth with Kori.

One thing that was inconsistent was about Kori. Sometimes they said she was the last one, and other times they talk of Dylan going on to keep killing her. So which is it?I did like this book enough that I think, given the chance, I would check out the next one.

I thought that this story was going to be different but I am glad it wasn't. It's action packed dash with romance. Kori is a girl who has lost her mother and has an army general for a father. Life seems like it's just going to be simple. She gets pushed into a world of danger and romance. Kori's dad sends two guys (Cade and Noah), whom she thinks are just army dudes to babysit her, turns out that they are from a parallel dimension. Her life just gets crazier and crazier from that point on. There's a part where they're talking about technology from Cade and Noah 'world', that was just one of my favorite parts of this book because there are people in this room who's just finding out about traveling between dimensions, and how it's different. Just made me want to know more about the different dimensions.
Parallel dimensions are in my top three favorite sci-fi topics to read (Or even watch) about. I just love this idea. So, I knew I had to read this one. I really enjoyed this book, finished it in one day. Because it's just an easy book to get lost in. The characters have these great push and pull moments, and you wanna know what happens. There are many little plots that make up one huge plot.
The authors writing follows smoothly just a great mix of everything I love in a Science Fiction book.
Infinity (The Infinity Division #1) by Jus Accardo was read and reviewed part of a blog tour but all these thoughts are all mine and what I truly think of this book.

I was excited when I heard that Jus Accardo was writing a new series that involved parallel dimensions because I had loved The Eternal Balance series so much. I thought that the story line was interesting but I was hoping for something more original. I felt like I had read this story many times over already and loved them. This along with the predictability of the story made it very difficult for me to pay attention and love this story as much.
I had a hard time with the main characters because I thought that the love interest was bland and the main character was a bit too ready to run into trouble rather than thinking her actions through. She was a bit of a spoiled brat which turned me off from liking her.
I also didn't understand why the romance aspect of the book was shoved in the readers face so much throughout the story. I felt like there was too much attention on that and not enough on the people that were suffering because of the technology to travel to different dimensions. I honestly didn't care what happened to either character due to being annoyed by the author repeating that they couldn't be together over and over. I just wanted to yell "I get it! Now move on!"

When is the next one coming out?! I have realized I have an obsession with time jumping/alternate dimension books.

**I received an ARC of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.**
There were so many great parts in this book, but one of my favorites is the complicated relationship Cade and Noah have with Kori. Completely understandable, yet also incredibly heartbreaking at the same time. I don't recall ever reading a book with a relationship quite like this and I think the author did an amazing job with it. This book had so many twists and turns that I didn't see coming, it made for an amazing read. I can't recommend it enough!

OH BOY! Romance + Sci-fi = LOVE and that is EXACTLY what you'll get in Jus Accardo's Infinity. I was immediately attracted to the beautiful cover and stuck around for the amazing description. Secrets! Interdimensional travel! Secretive boys from other dimensions! YASSSS.
Real love started in your heart and went straight to infinity.
I basically devoured this book from the moment I started it. Our main character, Kori, is a slightly rebellious teen reminiscent of Banksy. Kori paints murals to deal with the grief she has after losing her mother. Her dad won't talk about it so what's a girl to do other than deface public property? Ok, fine...She could have found a more legal outlet but I digress. While painting one night, she runs into an ultra creep, who turns out to be an interdimensional traveler set out to kill all Kori thanks to a pretty ridiculous grudge.
Hope could gut you in the end.
Enter Cade and Noah, set to babysit Kori while her dad is away. After Kori decides to play with her life some more, Cade and Noah divulge that they are travels from an alternate dimension where Noah is Kori's brother and Cade is her boyfriend. On the run they go, trying to escape similar outcomes to their home dimension.
Promise me you'll live your life in vivid color.
Infinity is constant action, there's never a slow point. In addition to all the interdimensional issues, you get the backstories of all of the characters. How Jus pulls this off in 320 pages is nothing short of amazing! She weaves characters and dimensions in her beautiful writing that will keep your attention through the end.
While the story is driven within a sci-fi setting, it never feels too heavy. Same with the romance. Nothing comes off as forced. I love that there's resolution but the end is left open enough for a second book. If you've read other interdimensional love stories and enjoyed them, I highly recommend picking this one up!

A solid start to this series of different worlds.
The blurb for this book grabbed me and I'm happiest when in the YA world. What emerges from the pages is a rather complex but intriguing series of events leading to the heroine, Kori, finding out that her life, her world is not as it seems. Kori was a likeable character, full of attitude, head-strong but with vulnerabilities. Kori finds herself being minded by two young soldiers Cade and Noah. These two are like good cop, bad cop; chalk and cheese. Kori quickly realises they're not just minders.
The story direction took a bit of technical grasping, but once I was initiated in the Infinity world, I flew with the concept. There was some chemistry between the characters but any romance felt secondary to the story itself. There were some characters that I enjoyed disliking, like Dylan. Some of the twists felt a little predictable but the story was an interesting journey.
