Reagan Elizabeth Grainger (288 KP) rated The Craftsman in Books

Best book I've read in a long time
I loved this book and have read a few of hers since, the book is well written with a good balance between scene setting and dialogue. The female main character is believable and fits well in the time frame. There are enough twists to keep you going without it being hard to keep up with the narrative.

Very well written.
Plenty of action as you follow the guys across France, defeating the Nazi regime.
Pretty compelling viewing. Set in World War 2, following the pursuits of 'Easy Company' during the D-Day landings.

Binge watched this on Netflix and cannot wait for season 3 to air in a few weeks.
I love all three women and can't help being drawn into their troubles.
One thing definitely has me intrigued, though, and that's Beth and Rio and their power play - as well as their relationship.

Jennifer Daniell (108 KP) rated The Neptune Project (The Neptune Project, #1) in Books

This was a GREAT read. It sucked me in right from the beginning and the characters had depth and were rounded enough that you were immediately attached to them. I don't want to write about the plot so much as I received an advanced copy through a goodreads giveaway and I definitely don't want to spoil it for any potential readers! That being said, the story line is unique and captivating and fits well with the YA/Dystopian genre without being another one of the tired, overworked books that are being pumped out right now. Do yourself a favor and pick this one up.

There's a long-running gag about Star Trek, how it's always the Red Shirts (security) who end up killed on the away missions, most of which - quite often - include crew who have no call being there (why, for instance, does the captain go so often?)
That's the starting point for this novel, which imagines that the lower-deck crew are well aware of this fact, and thus do their utmost to avoid ever being selected to go on an away mission.
Very self-aware, in other words, although it could probably do with being a little bit shorter than it actually is - drop the Codas at the end, maybe?
