Alice (12 KP) rated Divergent in Books

As an avid reader of novels I've found myself persistently let down with YA novels and I thought the same of Divergent before I had even read it. I got a sample and downloaded the book and finished it in under ten hours. Couldn't put it down. Very good YA novel and an interesting twist on a dystopia. Don't think I will be judging a book by its cover any time soon again

David McK (3632 KP) rated Aliens Omnibus: "Earth Hive", "Nightmare Asylum" v. 1 in Books

Aliens Omnibus: "Earth Hive", "Nightmare Asylum" v. 1
Steve Perry | 1995
6
6.0 (1 Ratings)
Book Rating
Omnibus edition containing two spin-off novels from Fox's Alien franchise: Earth Hive, and Nightmare Asylum.

Reading these, I kinda get the impression they were released before Ali3n - definitely before Resurrection - as they're very much modeled on Aliens (that's the second one: the one with the 'S'). While, for spin-off novels, they're actually not that bad, they're also not going to win any awards for literature, or set the world on fire!
