A PDF of this book was given to me in exchange for a review. This review is spoiler free.
Typically, when you finish reading a book in a series, you want to be left with feeling of desperation. A kind of desperation that can only be soothed by the receiving of the next book in the series so you can find out what happened to the characters you have grown to love.
Did this book leave me with that feeling? It did.
I would absolutely love to have the next book in this series so I can learn more about Josie and Reid and everyone else that has captured my interest. However, the thing I don’t know is if my need to have the next book is because I hate having unanswered questions or if it was really that good.
In my opinion the writing was good, not great, but good. There were certain times that I felt the author was trying too hard to be witty or funny so the comedic aspect of this story didn’t hold my attention. I also felt like the chemistry between characters was sometimes forced
When I read romance in a book, it has to be done well. I have to feel things. I like to be left blushing or swooning from the lines and actions of the characters. In this book I didn’t have that overwhelming feeling I was looking for. That was disappointing. That’s not to say that I didn’t enjoy the other aspects of this book though.
I loved all the action and the hanging on to edge of my seat to find out more of Josie’s story, waiting for the next adventure. Those things did a good job of holding my interest. And even though the world building was a little rocky, I could still enjoy the book. All that said, I am very much looking forward to the next book in Schrodinger’s Consortium series. Lastly, I would also like to add that the cover of this book is beautiful, one of the best I’ve seen and part of what drew me to it.
My rating on a scale from 1-5 stars, I give this book 3.5 stars.
And big thank you goes out to Entangled Teen for allowing me a first look at this book.
Please note: these opinions are my own and I recommend that you read this book yourself to form your own opinions.

Anomaly is a super-fun book that both teens (and not-teens) can enjoy. I'm a self-confessed nerd so I absolutely lapped up Josie's nerdalicious characterisation. Her powers were also really interesting and limitless! You see, this is the fun thing about fantasy books - anything can happen. And with Josie's ability to "push" things into existence, that is literally the case with this book. So much fun!
I also have to mention Reid, the bad boy/mentor/possible love interest. He was adorable! I'm definitely going to be on the look-out for the next book, [b:Enigma|23014836|Enigma (Schrodinger's Consortium, #2)|Tonya Kuper|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1488933299s/23014836.jpg|42580937], when it hits the shelves next month.

Even for 3 stars, recommended.
But there is too much boring romance Reid-Josie for my taste.
Will read the next book in the series, but if the romance-level keeps up that may be my last.

I received an e-ARC of this novel to review as part of the blog tour. This does not affect my opinion whatsoever. This review is my honest opinion and I was not compensated in any way in exchange for this review.
This book has a really interesting concept. The series is named Schrodinger's Consortium, after the physicist, Schrodinger, who created the famous Schrodinger's Cat analogy. If you don't know what the Schrodinger's Cat is, basically it's a theory that says that when a cat is placed in a box and whether it is dead or alive is dependent on whether a radioactive atom had decayed and emitted radiation or not. He says that the cat is both dead and alive until the box is opened. The full thing is a little more complicated on that, but Anomaly plays on this idea of something being in the state of existence or non-existence all at once.
In Anomaly, there are Pushers, Retractors and Anomalies. Pushers are able to push anything non living into assistance, while Retractors are able to retract or disappear anything non living. Anomalies can do both. Josie is an anomaly and she doesn't learn this until her birthday, where suddenly everything starts going wrong. Reid Wentworth comes into town and she finds out that he is her trainer in everything Oculi, as the Pushers, Retractors and Anomalies are called.
Anomaly is told in dual point of view that switches between Josie and Reid's point of view throughout the novel.
Josie is a physics prodigy and she is so good at it that she won an award that would be handed to her by the Vice President of the United States. She's also a proud nerd. She makes a lot of references to Star Trek and Star Wars and as much of a nerd that I believe I am, I didn't really get these references, since I'm only casually into Star Trek and Star Wars. Josie is one of those types that "is a nerd, but is also pretty and doesn't know it" and it annoyed the crap out of me. I'm just kind of sick of that whole situation. Her mom is a scientist and so is her missing father and they are super strict and controlling with what Josie and Eli, her younger brother, are allowed to do. It was ridiculously strict and her mom treated her terribly throughout the book. It really enraged me so as much as Josie irritated me, I sympathized with Josie enough so that I cared for her.
It's admirable how dedicated Reid is to protecting and teaching Josie her oculi powers. There is history between Josie and Reid and he has liked her for a long time so it's obvious he would want to protect her. Also, though he likes her, he is ruthless with her training and gives her initiation by fire. I like that he doesn't skimp on her or hold back just because he likes her.
Since this is a book that's premise is based on a physics theory and the main character is a physics prodigy, expect a lot of it in this book, mostly in the beginning. I don't know how accurate the physics is because I suck at it, but some of it I did understand. The concept and idea of Anomaly is quite interesting and I'm very interested where the next book is going to go, because apparently, not everything is as it seems.
Overall, this is a fun read and though I may not enjoy the characters too much, I quite enjoyed the plot and the concept. I would be willing to read the next one to see where this goes.

This book has been on my TBR list on Goodreads FOREVER. When I found out that the author, Tonya Kuper, is coming to our town in a few months for a book signing I went ahead and pushed the book to the top of my to-read list.
Anomaly follows Josie, a 17 year old science dork who loves anything and everything science related. The book starts out on her birthday where a crap show of events happens... she doesn't hear from her dad, her boyfriend breaks up with her, and an internship she had scheduled for over the summer fell through. Her BFF Hannah tries to cheer her up with some awesome Big Bang Theory cupcakes when two hot dudes on motorcycles roll up at their school. Later that night, she convinces her super overprotective mother to let her go to a party where she meets Reid and Santos, the two motorcycle hotties. Reid takes her for a ride while Santos entertains Hannah and he shows her how she is different. She is an anomaly, someone who can push and retract physical objects with her mind. This is super hard for her to grasp since she is such an analytical person, but eventually Reid shows her beyond a doubt that she is different. This begins a strange series of events that pretty much turn Josie's life upside down leading up to an award ceremony later that week where she is to presented with a physics achievement award by the Vice President of the country, which turns out to be an even bigger deal than Josie had originally imagined given the new information about herself.
I really liked this book. If you were to ask me what a fantasy YA book should include and how to write one, I would give you this book as an example. It hits all the highs and lows that a typical YA book should. You have your quirky and relatable leading lady, the hot dude that is hot/cold with LL because of outside circumstances and inner conflict, family conspiracy, government corruption, a few plot twists, and a big grand finale ending where everything hits the fan. Anomaly follows this formula perfectly, which in this case is a good thing.
The plot is unique enough where you don't feel like you've already read the book. The push/retract thing is fairly complicated and I found myself having to reread sentences a few times to really get it. I liked that because I wasn't able to guess straight out how the whole thing worked. The LL Josie is very relatable with her Star Wars and Star Trek references and her overall nerdy-ness. I really like how she isn't the typical someone-please-save-me kind of gal. Her life really does get pretty hectic and she finds out all sorts of things that are really hurtful for her, but she takes it all in stride. She puts on her big girl panties and does what she needs to do to protect her family. She reminds me a lot of Tris from Divergent where she is all "this sucks, but oh well guess I gotta save the world and stuff." Reid actually like of reminds me of Four from Divergent, as well. He is her trainer and you totes know he has the hots for her(it helps that the POV switches between the two of them so you actually do know what's going on in his head) but he has to put his needs/wants to the back burner and do what he has to do as well.
I pretty much saw the twists coming from the beginning, but it didn't make me enjoy the book any less. The ending you saw coming from a mile away, but I was still on the edge of my seat needing to know how it would all wrap up. I really hope there is a second book because I think this story could really go awesome ways. I would love to follow Reid and Josie to the Hub and see their romance really bloom.
It was really refreshing reading a true YA book. These days the lines between YA and NA and everything else gets blurred, so it was really cool to go back to the basics and read a book that really embodied everything that I love about this genre. I would recommend this book for anyone who loves traditional YA fantasy writing. If you are a fan of Legend or Divergent, then you will probably really enjoy the writing style and story line.

Josie is a pusher, no not that kind of pusher, she pushes reality. Basically she can make whatever she observes appear. The science to fiction on this one is a bit too 'nope' for me. This is a super power that gives you anything, whatever you want you can make it appear. Kuper has run with the Schrodinger's Cat experiment and invented a science fiction where "a system stops being a superposition of states and becomes either one or the other when an observation takes place". So Josie just has to observe something, a real thing, a drawing, an image and as an 'Oculi' she can bring it into the state of reality. Very loosey goosey and too amazingly perfect of a super power really for me to ever really lose myself in the story.
The novel did have some humerous momentsand I found the character of Reid more likeable and gripping than Josie who spent a lot of time crying and biting her lip.
Would appeal to teens more than YA/Adults who read YA lit.
My 15 year old daughter is currently reading it and really loves it, so there's that.

(I'm writing this review a few months after I dropped this book, so I may be mis-remembering some things.)
I stopped reading this around chapter 16. The plot kind of crumbled for me.
There was a spot in chapter 11 where Reid sees a newspaper headline and it says that "the details clicked into place". I had no idea what that meant. Five chapters later and it's still not clear.
This may have been explained and I've forgotten, but why did they have to have do the handoff? Couldn't they have had anyone else do it, ?
The whole concept of Josie "making nerdy look hot" got old super quickly. Additionally, (and this is kind of nitpicky, but) very few nerd-types like the show The Big Bang Theory.
I think the concepts behind the powers were well-designed. I also think that the combat and training scenes were really well done.

Josie has a good voice but the author is obviously trying too hard to make her a geek. A few of the pop culture references were cute but she went way overboard and they just got annoying.
I actually liked Reid better than Josie. Especially at the beginning because he knows what's really going on. I liked the mystery of the powers, but after a little teasing, we soon got an info dump of answers. Nothing's really left a mystery other than
Josie's powers were too strong and it was too easy for her to master them. Why do they need special training if all it took was pictionary? Also, Anomalies are supposed to be really really rare, and yet like almost everyone we meet is an Anomaly…
I worried about the romance when she started describing the dude's eyelashes, and she did blush an awful lot, but it was actually pretty good. For all the powers and training, and bad guys, this is still mostly a romance. I wasn't all giggly about Josie and Reid getting together but they were a cute couple. It wasn't insta love And it's not like they declared their undying love, they just kissed.
Will I read the next one? If it goes on sale.

REVIEW ORIGINALLY POSTED ON WHATANERDGIRLSAYS.COM
I absolutely LOVED this book. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I read it and I had such high hopes for it. I met Tonya back in the summer when I went out to Las Vegas for the ALA Conference. I was standing in line to meet Holly Black (for, like, the third time) and the line ran alongside the Entangled booth. Tonya was just finishing up her signing and she came to talk to us in line, handing us bookmarks and pens promoting her book. She was SO nice and genuine, and really excited about her book so I was immediately sold.
I’ve been anxiously waiting for MONTHS to get my hands on this book and so I felt quite lucky to be a part of the team to help promote Anomaly. I helped hand out postcards to promote it at Mockingjay, which I did at the red carpet premiere, and I got my hands on an early copy and DOVE into that book.
What really caught me about this book was the main character. Josie immediately caught my eye because…I felt like I had a lot in common with her. Within the first few minutes of reading, there were several different nerd references and I was sold, because I was laughing my ass off. As a girl who literally owns no other clothes besides t-shirts with Doctor Who, Star Wars, Harry Potter and various other fandoms adorned on them, I was immediately sold on Josie as a character. I also just recently went through a break up, so I understood that sort of “fun time” as well. Josie immediately felt real, and relatable, and because of that, its easy to follow her journey as her world gets turned completely upside down.
I also really loved how unique it was. This is a story that hasn’t been told before. The ability to manipulate reality? That’s not exactly a NEW concept but its fairly unique in the YA genre and I was immediately interested in how it would work out. Both Josie and Reid pull some off in the first few chapters and it blows my mind and I had to keep reading because I have to know how things work. Why could they do that? How could they do that? That kept me turning the pages, especially as more of the mystery is revealed. As more secrets are unraveled, more is hidden. Its incredible.
Plus there’s just the relationship between Reid and Josie. Its infuriating and beautiful. I love the banter they have with each other, how they’ve obviously attracted to each other. They gravitate to each other, they’re often so close that they don’t even realize it. But you’re sitting there, eyes scanning the page, hoping they’ll get even closer. They have such a back and forth relationship and I even tweeted Tonya one day because I was so frustrated haha! I ship the two of them so bad, and she does an amazing job of creating an incredible chemistry between these two main characters but without making it easy or flawless. Its difficult and I like that, because it leaves me wanting more and more.
Plain and simple, its a great debut by Tonya and I can’t wait for more. She’s a fantastic writer and an awesome person and this is a novel that you MUST pick up!
