Really enjoyed this! Some speculative elements that I wish got more cerebral, but maybe the end just wasn't for me

Very fun! Definitely re-living the Twilight days, but at an adult level and Jacob is the winner. Wouldn’t say that this book is winning any awards - but a very entertaining way to spend time!

Venin are among us and take who we least expect. When true love is worth more to you than your own soul you know you are in deep water. Friends die and enemies who you thought were dead are not. War college gets dismantled and the real revelations begin.

The pace of this book was slow and for a missing persons case, it lacked any suspense or drama.

4 stars! A great thriller where I did not guess the ending. I’ve heard the hype about this book since it came out and am so glad I finally got a chance to read it!

Sci-fi is one of my favorite genres. This Story reminds me of other sci-fi story lines. I had a feeling that it was probably an alien involved in this dystopian world. Written well—kept me reading to find out if it was an alien or all an experiment.

Imagine, if you will, that your life completely changes because of an accident… You take responsibility for your alcohol and drug usage and just when you think you will be free, a pandemic happens. This was a powerful and moving book. (I shed some tears.)

Liked how short the stories were because I could focus more on each one. They reminded me of parables told by Jesus in the bible—thought provoking, a lesson in each story, but usually not straightforward. Enjoyed the humor in some of them, but others were a little on the dark side. I didn’t love this book because most of the stories seemed nonsensical to me and couldn’t figure out how they chose the titles. Still an interesting read.

Chapter 19 - In this chapter Jude is learning from the "Ghost" who is teaching her how to spy for Prince Dain. The Ghost is showing her how to kill, camouflage herself, and leave undetected. She is doing this in the name of Prince Dain - but prior to this assignment, she was not a person who killed.

Bittersweet—-Heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. The cruelty of societal racism (especially by the very wealthy) that the characters had to bear was painfully sad to read, but the simple joys in life that they held onto and finding home” was heartwarming. Morrison was able tell the story in a beautiful poetic way.
