Hmm...well this started very slow and made me more aware of the fact that I'm not a fan of books that take place in mental hospitals/institutes.

It took a long time to get anywhere and I was on the verge of giving up when Faraday appeared and I started to get excited, thinking the story would pick up and get on with it. Unfortunately, we stayed in the mental hospital for another good portion of the book and we went through what synesthesia is, which I admit is very interesting, but didn't give much away with the plotline and where it was going. It was about 150 pages from the end when it started getting good and from there I more or less devoured it, only for it to turn rather sci-fi-y. I like sci-fi sometimes but not in this. I kinda felt let down.

I don't think I'll be reading the next book in the series.

This is a fast-paced sci-fi erotica novella, the main character of which is an "experiment". She isn't human, she wasn't born but created, and yet she thinks and feels. 'Angel' is kept aboard Nugene station and is the secret of D'Anton - her "father" - and Carver - her "lover".

Her life is good until the day The Gran board the station, earlier than expected, and sees her. They decide that they will have her and the story takes off very quickly. Above all, Angel is a survivor and she will do whatever it takes to make sure that she does. Facing sorrow, loss and fear, she comes out fighting.

The first instalment of this sci-fi erotica series starts with a bang and is brilliant reading from start to finish. Definitely recommended for a short, hot read.

* I received this book from the author in return for a fair and honest review. *

An Interesting Approach to Sci-Fi
I'll be honest, I've heard some pretty crappy reviews about this movie so I went into it expecting it to be pretty awful. However, it wasn't. I found this to be an interesting movie about self-discovery and the bond between father and son. The visuals and CGI work were astounding. While it wasn't as fantastic as some science fiction movies I've seen, it was undoubtedly a good one.
