Starglass by Phoebe North

5.0

I absolutely loved reading this book. It's weird because it's different than anything I've ever read before, but I think that's one of the reasons I enjoyed reading it so much. This isn't the typical "girl falls in love with guy in first book and spends the next two overcoming obstacles in order to be with each other in the end" (also found it interesting how there is only two books). Now, don't get me wrong; I love a good love story. But, I didn't realize I needed a break from all that until I read this book. It's so new and refreshing, and it was nice to read a YA book that isn't centered around the romance.
This book more focuses on Terra (the MC) trying to find out who she is and what her purpose is. Throughout the book, she is constantly faced with heartbreak, violence, and life-altering choices.
Another thing that I love about this book is that the characters are so realistic. Terra made some terrible decisions in this book, ones that made me want to smack her upside the head. But, I think that just makes her so much more relatable. The characters in this book aren't perfect, and it made reading this book extremely realistic.
This is definitely my new favorite sci-fi, and I can't wait for the next one! While this book is absolutely amazing, I think I'm going to like Starbreak even better... Would recommend to anyone!
