There were a few slow moments in the novel, but this didn’t take away from my overall enjoyment. Readers like me who enjoy character-driven stories will enjoy this book. The writing was also really good.

This book is a semi-humorous science-fiction novel that takes place in a Star Trek-esque universe. Of course, everyone knows that red shirts always bite the dust, and these characters want to figure out why.
To avoid spoilers, all I'm going to say that it's meta.

Metagaming and outsmarting your opponent
A fantastic two player trick-taking game that encourages reading your opponent. With a novel scoring system that punishes for taking too many tricks, a wide variety of strategies can prevail. Easy to teach, hard to master.
  
What a fantastic novel! It has been a long time since a book, much less a romance one, has so completely enthralled me. It was witty and believable and I found myself invested in the characters. Definitely not one to pass up if you prefer a good historical romance.

I really enjoyed this book. The mix of Supernatural in the book made me love it even more!! Great job on this novel!!! I also liked in the acknowledgements how she recognised some of my other favorite authors. It's always cool to see that some favorites are all friends!

I studied this book for my English Literature A Level and the more I learnt about it, the more I realised how intelligent and creative McEwan has been. I know some people that found parts of this novel a little slow but personally I relished the detail character development.

Yet another great novel by Cindy Gerard. I have found myself captured by this series. The characters are lovable. You cannot help but cheer them on.

This book was a quick read. I enjoyed reading it and I would definitely recommend this series to any of my friends.

Page turner
It was kind of a quick read, the story was very easy to understand and the craziness of it all made it easy to keep reading and not save for later. It's also another dystopian novel that really gets you thinking.

I thought this was a very well written and thought out novel. It is hard-hitting in the sense that it confirms that ones memory is ever so important yet incredibly fragile. It allowed me to reflect on the things in life that I may have taken for granted.

This was a really cute (ultra) short erotic story with some likeable characters but minus a plot. This would make a great full length novel which I would be very interested in reading. It's not as filthy as the title may suggest...more of a cute and fluffy romance.
