One Realm Beyond Review

One Realm Beyond


4/5
My Review
The line "With the help of his new friends Bixby and Dukmee, Cantor must uncover the secrets of the corrupt guild before they become too powerful to be stopped." is what pulled me in when I first read the blurb of this book. I enjoyed it. This story has  imaginative ideas that I liked reading. The Character would have to be the best part of the book. The Author know's them. (Sometime when reading I feel the author doesn't not the character as well as they know the plot.) But this book the Character development is spot on. The sitting of the story is one many will enjoy in this world. I found not wanting to put it down. I did how ever find some spots to be a big slow but that was just part of the storytelling of its pages building up to faster pacing parts. Bixby is my favorite hands down, I was a multiple layers girl once in my life. I'm not going to go in deep I'm not wanting to spill beans here. It was a magic read that I hope to re-read here soon. Book two will be on my "To Read List" Review Thanks to Book Look for giving me this copy to review!

P.S. Can I just say how amazing this cover it! It's sick! Love it!

External Forces: The Laws of Motion, Lex I by: Deborah Rix

It's 100 years since the Genetic Integrity Act was passed and America's borders were closed to prevent genetic contamination. Only the enemy, dysgenic Deviants, remain beyond the heavily guarded border. The Department of Evolution carefully guides the creation of each generation and deviations from the divine plan are not permitted.
When 16-year-old Jess begins to show signs of deviance she enlists in the Special Forces, with her best friend Jay, in a desperate bid to evade detection by the Devotees. Jess is good with data, not so good with a knife. When the handsome and mysterious Sergeant Matt Anderson selects her for his Black Ops squad, Jess is determined to figure out why. 
As her deviance continues to change her, Jess is forced to decide who to trust with her deadly secret, because if the enemy doesn't kill her first, the army will. In the maelstrom of first kisses and first kills, treason, betrayal, and heartbreak, Jess must discover what's actually out there, in the Deviant wasteland over the border, if she has any hope of making it to her 17th birthday.




Review:
External Forces: The Laws of Motion, Lex I by: Deborah Rix 

External Forces is a rollercoaster throughout the book. Ups and downs, fast and slow pacing. The more you read into the book the more I felt and understood the characters. Jess would have to be one of my favorites in this book. She wakes up with a dark mark, meaning she is a deviant! Deviant is someone who is usually killed when exposed. This book follows Jess and the world she lives in. The book is one that kept me reading throughout the pages, even with I felt the book was at a slow pace but is was because a fast pace was coming. There is a lot in this story, love, action, and cliffhanger! Yes, there is one of those! It's a book that science fiction fans will like!

The Waking Engine By David Edison



Review:

The Waking Engine By David Edison is a story that will keep you reading wanting to know what will happen next. Keeping thinking and giving you a feel of needing to know more. This the story when someones die they awake to find that they are now in one of a million different worlds. That is until they comes to the last place, the City Unspoken. Where death is really the ending. The Waking Engine, takes you on a trip and a half with Manhattan, Cooper. I enjoy reading this book as I never knew what was going to happen when I would turn the next page. The idea of this book is amazing, just like the writing in the book. The characters are full of personality while they go through this adventure. I would say if you enjoy books that make you thing, that blows your mind, keeps you guessing then The Waking Engine is for you!
