First things first! This is the SECOND book in the series. If you really want to understand and get the full effect of this series you must start with book 1 "Believe" this is the second book in the series "Chasing Shadows" by Mia Fox. Rabidfaery gives this book 3 1/2 stars. It tells a very emotional tale that while you may never have a paranormal equivalent. if you've loved and lost it will have you thinking a lot and rooting for that point of happiness for both Ella & Ethan. It also really makes you love Nate. I thought that the adventure added a lot to this book. With all the emotional intensity it was another wild and suspenseful experience to see if they might all end up like Nate and the story could've got an even more confusing love triangle. "Trust" is a novella length book that will have you on an emotional roller coaster right up to the very end. If you're a fan of romance that has a blend of paranormal quirk than pick up "Trust" by Mia Fox. This was the first series I've read by her and I'll absolutely be checking out more! ...more

It’s called breaking symmetry. To her, a mirror feels like a film of honey. She can reach through it, grab things…even step inside.
On the other side she lives every teenager’s fantasy: a universe all her own, zero consequences. She can kiss the hot guy, break into La Jolla mansions, steal things…even kill. When finished, she just steps back into reality and smashes the mirror—and in an instant erases every stupid thing she did. Gone. It never happened.
But breaking symmetry is also dangerous. First there’s the drug-like rush she gets when passing through the glass, like a shot of adrenaline. She suspects it’s degrading her body, making a new copy of her each time. A reflection of a reflection, each one a little hazier. Then, of course, there’s the risk of getting cut off from reality.
When she narrowly escapes a military quarantine zone with the San Diego Police Department hot on her heels only to discover her escape mirror littering the floor in shards, her worst fear is realized. Now, trapped in a broken reflection, she must flee through a mind-bending maze of mirrors, going deeper into the nightmare as she struggles to grasp a betrayal, uncover the chilling truth about her ability, and somehow find a way out of a dead-end universe that “never happened.” Somehow she must find her way home " I thought that this was a fantastic read! Dan Rix has a really interesting take on physics, both theoretical and in Broken Symmetry applied physics. Even for the basic YA sci- fi/ thriller enthusiast this book fits the bill . From the point of view of Blaire Adams ; a 16 yr. old with enough intelligence to have gotten herself legally emancipated in La Jolla San Franciscoq t b c...more

It's spectNot only is it given a seal of approval by Sharon Shinn which speaks volumes... It kicks ass! Why hasn't anyone EVER mentioned this series? It's spectacular ? I'll never understand how and why things get glorified.. This may have the continual theory of how shitty "big brother " is in any time, but it's the truth. Musicians like consolidated & authors like Ann Aguirre do well to make people think about it. Jax is flawed enough that it makes it almost enjoyable to read how truly fucked up the world is. Though I suppose it can and will get worse. Censorship of literature , like music has already got its clutches into the YA genre. I'm just scared at what they're trying to divert attention from... I'm sure it's awful & will find out soon enough. Till then I'm going to read "Wanderlust" and feed a paranoid mind...more
I usually hate novella's. This one actually made me wonder why I haven't read any of the Ann Aguirre's work? It totally kicks book ass ! After I read I usually hate novella's. This one actually made me wonder why I haven't read any of the Ann Aguirre's work? It totally kicks book ass ! After I read 6 review tour books I'm going to read the "Horde" trilogy ... Plus all those other books she wrote... If anyone's read them I'd love a heads up if they're good? Help a reader out:)...more
I find I much prefer Ash's pov.., but I want Puck's... I'm sure it will eventually be coming along:)I find I much prefer Ash's pov.., but I want Puck's... I'm sure it will eventually be coming along:)...more
I was given a copy of each book in the "Strange in Skin" trilogy so I could participate in the blog tour you're reading now. I personally thought thatI was given a copy of each book in the "Strange in Skin" trilogy so I could participate in the blog tour you're reading now. I personally thought that the books could have been one book instead of broken into a trilogy . Aside from that the main character p.o.v. that the story is told from is an incredibly sheltered, suburban, religious female. With a Pastor for a father, a special needs brother, and a mother who runs an antique store.. Her life is as mundane and meh as it can get. All this changes when Anna goes to the Seneca jail to pass out pamphlets & offer spiritual aid to the men being held there. This is where the story picks up. EMERY LOGAN... Let me say the name again, Emery Logan! From the moment Anna encounters the young male prisoner (being held under awful charges), things start to change in Anna. Emery is just as affected by his chance encounter with "The Preachers Daughter". In the second book in the series"Evadere" there are many bombshells that rock the foundations if everything Anna thought she knew. Anna's parents have been keeping secrets. The shocking revelations about Anna's life are almost laughable to the conspiracy surrounding the formerly imprisoned Emery. Emery & Anna's strength found in each other keep them going when everything that had been a constant , a safe secure fact becomes lies. Even as Anna & Emery try to deal with the shocks if their individual revelations, their enemies are plotting . Anna has to fend for herself for the first time. Luckily she runs into a Scave named Jo who is kind enough to show Anna the ropes if being a "powerless human", she quickly sums up the way things work on Evedere. The Contributors have abilities that allow them to grow food, build buildings, make clothes , learn medicine & care for the sick ect. Not every person born on Evadere has an ability. They become outcasts and have to Scavenge for anything they need. It's an age old hate between the Scaves, contributors & royalty . Suffice to say that Jo's tender heart gets in tossed out if her clan . Anna, Jo, & Rooney ( another Scave ) plan to infiltrate the castle try to find Emery & If there's a way to help out the obvious injustice of the social structure Anna wants to help. At last Prince... no spoilers.. Emery and Anna are reunited . Emery will marry Anna and they will try to bring Evadere to peace. Sadly just as humans look at material possessions , jobs,cars, a personal trophies as an example of their individual strength, love , and courage . Sadly that is not the case and it's going to take time on both planets to change belief system . I have a feeling that this is not the end if the story . I honestly felt that the ending of the last book "Solace"it should have had a definable TBC. Make sure to add thr trilogy yo your TBR links are provided !...more
