this was a unique young adult read, the plot was great. i really enjoyed the characters and the scifi element it really worked well with the plot.

DNF trilogy from NetGalley. I tried, but there are so many other books out there that are surely better written.

This really could've used a stronger edit. There's no value in a play by play of the main character's time. It didn't serve a purpose and wasn't great prose anyway.

I'm usually of the opinion that the book was better than the movie, but in this case, I think the story of A Falling Starr would have made a better movie. We have an amnesiac princess from a different dimension who is living on earth with no memory of her previous life. She's drawn to all things science-fiction and feels an instant connection to Emmerich a boy in her astronomy lab. Once the bullets start flying, Angela and Emmerich are in a race to get back to Angela's home dimension to end a war.

This is very light science-fiction/romance. My difficulty as a reader was that the book was divided into 3 chapters - which made it ever different to read. The premise was good and I think a little editing could really make this book shine.

You know how sometimes you want fillet mignon with a blue cheese sauce, and sometimes you want a cheese burger from the greasy spoon down the road? The same is true of books. Sometimes I want the rich, rareness of the finest literary novel, and sometimes I want a quick, uncomplicated sci-fi-esque adventure featuring a young amnesiac in a race against time. This is actually three short tales compiled in one volume. It’s a little thin on world building and the plot wasn’t full of surprises, but it did exactly what it said on the tin; it was fun. Perfectly fine popcorn literature. Enjoy as a palate cleanser between more difficult books.

This sounded like an intriguing premise, but the writing style was clunky at times and I could never really feel connected with the heroine and her journey. The villains were caricatures, very one-dimensional. The details (if I had to read one more reference to Doctor Who or one more coffee shop name, I was going to quit)were distracting rather than character-building. (One reference that especially bugged me was when a character who had never heard of Earth called the hero a Romeo. Really? Never heard of Earth but can make a reference to Shakespeare? Minor quibble, but it really took me out of the story.)
