For 2022 I wanted to expand my reading horizons <-- is that a thing, anyway I wanted to expand the genres I read this year. I believe while we all have our favorite genre, it doesn't mean we can't discover others that we enjoy just as much.

Emissary did that for me. The book sucks you in and you really get wrapped up into this new world the author created. I love when that happens. Anything to get out of the world we're trapped in now.

I loved the video game aspect of it and the beginning didn't really take me there right away, but once I realized what was going on (about 3% into the book) I was hooked! I've already purchased book 2 and it's on my reading list for this month.

For readers who love video games and virtual reality <---meaning putting yourself IN the story, this will have the vibe you're looking for.

I won't got into what the book is about, because that's for you to find out...but def worth the read.
