Okay so i will admit if i could rate this book up to the halfway mark i would have given this a one star review. However, now that i’m fully done with this one i can truly give it a 3 star rating.
This book is ginormous for YA and it really didn’t need to be...it could have been edited further but here we are in hand. The chapters were too long like i don’t need to read/listen to the inner monologues going on and on and on! I kept saying at the beginning damn Edward shut up!? And i know im not the only one thats saying this. This felt like a painful marathon and by the middle to 3/4 it was starting to satisfy me. I am glad i cleared my head and went into this one however i wish this didn’t consume so much time to complete. I really spaced this one out over a month and a half cause if i listened to it and or read it every single day i probably would have given it a 1 star review overall.
This book took commitment and Stephanie meyer really put a lot of work into this one i can tell. Edward is a very complex individual and she executes that beautifully. Bella is great love her, love Alice even more thanks to this book and of course Emmett, i wish there was more of jasper and esmay but overall ill settle. Im hoping there is a Jacob perspective coming since there is a love triangle thing going on in the original twilight series. Overall 3 stars and im satisfied now that I’ve completed it. I personally think this was far too slow paced and it was really hard to motivate because of all the inner monologues but love that we are diving back into one of my favorites not an all time favorite but love the world of twilight.

This was an amazing listen. I really enjoyed this. The characters and mythology and the environment building and that ending sooooo good! I really want more of this so now I'm on the hunt for books similar to circe. Really recommend this one.
There was a lot of jumping around which makes me confused if i dont type notes but this book was very well done. The acolytes were interesting and i really like zachary’s character as a whole. Im so glad i took another stab at this one. I cant wait to read the night circus now. I really like morgenstern’s word building and imagery and symbolism throughout this one.
This was really good and pulled me in as soon as the duel began but before that I was just moving along. The twist was amazing and I loved everything about the video game world. I really enjoyed the overall of this book but it was a slow pace at first, I'm giving this a 4 star because the overall of this book was everything I love in a book, the message, the embracing of being yourself, the build, etc.
I love that a female IS the developer too. Just makes me so excited a further example for young girls.

Where do I even begin....o.O This was the hardest most fulfilling book i've read in 2020 so far hands down. Wow...The domestic violence and the grooming of these young girls not only made me sick to my stomach and cry on numerous parts but Lei's character made me shout out several times yeah you badass get it! I was rooting for Lei the entirety of this book and wren has got to be amongst the highest of my favorites. They are THE perfect duo and I loved both of them. Aoaki was my next in line of favorites when it came to the characters but I shook my head on how much she was brainwashed and gaslighted by her situation...I loved the progression of this story, I am so anxious to pick up the second one now in this series and the fact there is a 3rd installment in 2021 coming o.O!!!?!?!?! yessssssss! overall what a hard read but amazing overall story. So glad I binged this one! Everything moved at a pretty good pace, I was never bored with the details and just ugh definitely recommend!
The absolute full package on any sci fi book i've read in the last 2+ years. Hands down 5 stars. Holy crud was the length of this book humungous like 880 pages humungous the audio book I read along with was over 30 hours long o.O i thought the midnight sun was a beast but this one was engaging the full way through. I loved kira and gregorivich (I have a soft spot for AI's lol). It definitely felt like 3 books built into 1 but over all I loved the war with the alien race, the evolvement of kira as a character and the over all whole package of this book. I loved it so much I went out and bought. I wish I could have gotten a signed copy of it but its okay, I don't own a single book that is signed already but one day.
what a creepy creepy book...did not see that ending coming but glad I read it, loved how it built up and then bam in your face creeped out lol. definitely recommend and hang in there if you feel its really slow at first i promise its worth it.
