The Love Interest by Cale Dietrich
5.0
I've had this book on my TBR since before it came out, but it's only now that I finally got around to reading it (I saw it at B&N and couldn't resist). SO worth the wait! I tore through it in less than a day. Before reading THE LOVE INTEREST, I thought it would mostly be about poking fun at the love triangle trope, but it's less about that as it is about exploring the concepts of love, freedom, and friendship -- and somehow, that makes it even better.
A Thousand Pieces of You by Claudia Gray

Actual rating: 3.5
This was a tricky one to review, because I really loved the concept. Plus, the main character is homeschooled and NOT portrayed as an antisocial weirdo, so huzzah for that! I think the main drawback of this book for me was that it tried to bring a lot of elements to the fore at once — interdimensional travel, romance, an evil corporation, family themes — and it felt like a bit of a mishmash. Still, I enjoyed it.
