Thank you to NetGalley for providing a free copy in exchange of an honest review. Well, it’s an interesting premise with a unique setting. I honestly didn’t expect those twists while reading and I think other readers will enjoy them too.

Although this book has a fantastic plot and lots of twist, the writing style didn't appeal to me and felt quite juvenile in places - as though it was written by a young teenager, not for a teenager. That stopped me enjoying it as much as I should have, but I'd still recommend giving the book a go if you enjoy Sci-fi!

I received a copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

Uhmm this book left me in a stand still, for me it was a bit of an arduous task to read, I got tired of it and needed to vent and read other things in middle of reading this book, maybe it wasn't for me, but I felt that the relationship between Cassidy and Eric was forced, and it didn’t feel natural, nor did it make much sense, so just because they talked a couple of times they were lovers? Yeah… not quite… why did Cassidy mom ask her to help at the lab?

Maybe it this book is for a bit for more younger public, the sames that would enjoy twilight, but this story didn’t work for me, I thank NetGalley for the free ARC and this is my honest opinion.

This is the story about Earth's survivors living on a satellite environment after a catastrophic meteor strike. T"hey continue to search for life that still exists on the planet while thriving in their new environment. One day a boy is seen on Earth in the periphery of the camera frame. From that point on, it is a thrilling race to find a way to communicate and to maybe repatriate the survivors on Earth. There is, of course, a sinister force at work to control both the satellite colony and the remnants on the planet. It is an entertaining read with great character development. Although it followed an expected chronology, I enjoyed the rich details in the story and the twists and turns in the adventure. This is a stand-alone book but the end leaves enough unexplored to allow for the story to continue.

The renascent world by Carryb W. Kerry.
At five years old, Cassidy had outlived almost Earth’s entire population. Now, at sixteen, she’s in an impossible relationship with an unworthy Earth boy.
Cruel, dark mystery laces Petriville, the town that long ago saved Cassidy Jones and her family from the meteorite strike. While Earth perished they thrived in a blissful utopia, orbiting Earth within the town’s indestructible sphere.
Now sixteen, Cassidy discovers how Gina, Petriville’s founder, manipulated her family when Gina reveals Cassidy's assigned mate. Cassidy refuses Jonas but things get worse when she meets Eric, an alluring hologram—especially after he reveals the true extent of Gina's malice. It's much worse than Cassidy realized. Stranger still, is that Cassidy and Eric's attraction seems unnatural. And that passion intensifies after the two share a virtual kiss.
Cassidy yearns to meet Eric in person. But Eric is still on Earth and Gina, when she gets her hands on Eric, intends for him to follow the rest of Earth's citizens—into the grave.
All the questions will be answered when Petriville returns to Earth, and that day is quickly approaching…
A really good read. Different. Liked the cover. 4*.
