Unearthed
by Meagan Spooner, Amie Kaufman
What is this craziness?!?!??!?! That ending though!! Oh my gosh!!
But first off. Dang, that book was fantastic. Definitely Indiana Jones in space. I absolutely loved it!
Characters:
I love how Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner manage to write such unique characters. I was worried that I was going to mix them up with the characters from the Starbound Trilogy, but they stood nicely on their own. I love the combination of Mia and Jules. It took me a bit to start liking Jules, but by middle, I absolutely loved them both. Side characters were interesting and had some nice twists.
Writing: Need I say anything beyond, it's Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner? It's freaking fantastic!
Building on that, the settings were fantastic. I loved the variety you got through flashbacks, especially Mia in Chicago. There is also a major setting transition in the last third of the book and I really enjoyed that.
Plot: Wow, what a crazy adventure. I was kind of sad that it didn't take place on a space ship like so many of Amie's books do, but the temple was so cool. I loved the Indiana Jones vibe. And the last third of the book really brought out the sci-fi aspect, which I loved.
I absolutely loved it! That cliffhanger ending though! Come on Amie and Meagan, that's Sarah J. Maas' job, lol. It definitely made me rethink the entire book. I can't wait to read the next one and see what happens!
