I absolutely LOVE this take on vampirism and what lengths humans will go to, just to survive! This was a fantastic read, it kept me ready for more with every page. I have already gotten Book Number 2 and I am starting it today! I can’t wait to find out the HOW!! - I purposely didn’t add details so there was no chance of spoilers

Good but seems rehashed

It makes for a very quick read with not a lot of substance and that's perfectly okay. I still enjoyed it quite a bit but I feel like I've read this story before specifically the Hell Divers series. This

This was entertaining and kept me interested through the entire story. I was looking for a lengthy audiobook to listen to when doing housework and this for the bill. In a dystopian world, 100 years after vampires took over earth (and we're talking the creepy, underworld, demon-esque feral vampires, not Edward from Twilight, okay?), the last of humanity lives on a ship that circles earth, always staying in the sun. Our main character is a member of the Ground Mission Control team, who goes to earth for supplies. The story follows her through the policitcal upheaval of their city which involves a resettlement plan to resettle on earths surface. Big yikes. Ill likely keep up with the series!

An interesting concept ruined by subpar writing- it reads like middle school fanfiction.

The protagonist committed treason or disobeyed orders multiple times, always without consequence of any kind beyond some stern words.

If This Was a Show I’d Watch It

I wasn’t expecting much going into this book. Picked it up a while back and finally got around to reading it. So glad I did. Reading it I realized this is something I would totally binge watch if it was a show. Got through it pretty fast, which for me says a lot since I don’t get a lot of reading time. Can’t wait to start the next one.

Surprisingly good!

And wow what a long time ago I had a plottwist surprise me, not because it was impossible to see it coming, but because it was so well executed and fit the story so awesomely well.

Would recommend this for anyone looking for some action, a good heroine that is likely and for anyone wanting a different dystopian story.

Not recommended for anyone looking for romance, there is basically none, also lot recommended for anyone looking for a likely or possible scenario.

I fear these books need to go into the “under appreciated” category and that makes me sad.

These books are so good! Alex is annoying but not in the “I can’t stand her” type of way. She’s impulsive and shortsighted but instead of that being something annoying to read about (which it usually is) it’s just a character flaw that the reader can kinda roll their eyes at in a fondly exasperated sort of way.

The story is exciting and interesting and fun to follow.

I’m cheap as hell. I go through Libby and hoopla mainly and I stare at my Amazon bookshelf like I’m weighing life and death — but I think this is a purchase I’m willing to make in order to continue on through the adventure
