This book was a joy to read. The worldbuilding was unique with just the right touch of magic. I loved, loved LOVED the characters, especially Anna. I hope Johnson writes a sequel.

This was a great book with some awesome twists in places you would never expect. They are the sort of surprises that you suspect about a paragraph before they happen, then leave your mouth wide open. There are some though that completely blow you away. It is an amazing story with the perfect amount of friendship, love, adventure, and mystery. A definite must-read for any middle-school age student. It would still be fun though for someone a little older or younger.

I love it when stories have traditional elements but add a twist at the end. Piper is a scraper living a hand to mouth existence in outpost 16. Good with machinery her luck begins to change when she rescues a girl in a meteor storm. What follows is an adventurous tale of dueling interest and friendship.

Reading this book gave me a heavy sense of deja vu which means I have either read the book before and don't remember or it was very similar to something else I had read. Either way, not one of my favorites.

Lags in the middle, but good overall. The characters read much older than their stated ages - Gee is definitely not 13. But there's action, adventure, revelation, and steampunk. What more do you want?
