I hadn't really given the Science Fiction genre a fair chance, so I decided that this would be a "starter" book. I figured since it was Book 1 of a series, I'd either love this book enough to get the next 2 or just abandon all hope for the genre.
I am happy to say that I found this book action-packed and exciting with a unique plot.
Well developed characters bring you into the story and make you actually care what happens to them.
The thought of humans having their minds transferred into AI robots (as well as other objects) is amazing and frightening all at the same time...especially when it is for the purpose of defeating a lab-created AI that has gone rogue with an objective to annihilate the human race!

Clearly, I'm getting old now, because I don't think I really "get" Instagram. You can share photos on Facebook, you can share photos on Twitter - and you can do it via your computer on both of them. Instagram just seems to be another way of doing the same thing, but in a more limited way.

That said, I do have it on my phone and have used it a few times, it's just that I find it easier to find what I'm looking for on Facebook. The feed on Facebook seems to react more readily to show me more from the groups and people I interact with, while the Instagram feed seems much more hit and miss.

I find the inability to upload pictures from the computer a little frustrating, as I would probably use it more often then, in which case I would probably come to understand its purpose more!

I'm rereading this book for the third time and it's still as funny and sexy as the first time. Cassie is so engaging, it's hard to find such well written characters that you can truly see yourself being friends with and wanting to meet. Not just because you like them, but because they feel real.

In Embrace the Night, the third book in the Cassie Palmer series, we start to see a much wider picture with new characters and new enemies popping up - and it doesn't seem like Cassie's "usual run of bad luck" no there seems to be a greater - more sinister - purpose that is getting the baddies with the big guns to crawl out to the woodwork to attack our poor little clairvoyant.

Tons of fun, and be prepared to fall even more irrevocably in love with Pritkin and Mircea. What a love triangle to be in.
