Alive: Book One of the Generations Trilogy | 
so-so3⭐
I think my biggest issue with this is up there in my last bullet point. Why did they have to be 12…it was just overly awkward to me. To be honest, though, I probably would‘ve liked this more if I had read it back when it came out. Although…since I enjoyed the narration so much, I might try the second book and see if it gets better or at least less awkward. The narration by the Graphic Audio Team was fantastic.
@aroc I'm sending the book to you. I'm moving at the end of the month, so I hurried up and read before things get too crazy. It will be there by the 10th.
@Lovesbooks87 Because of the move I might have to give you my new address depending on when you send the book. My lease is over on the 30th so I'll be moving then.

Thank you all. I've really enjoyed this. It was a lot of fun.

The benefit of having a library of unread books. Makes me feel a little better about all the unread books I have 😅

so-soI didn't love this book but I also didn't hate it. I felt like most of the book I was a little bit confused at what was happening. It did have some pretty good twist that I didn't see coming. I don't want to give too much away because it is a #LMPBC book.
@Lovesbooks87 the next #LMPBC book is on its way to you! Should arrive by May 9
Excited to get started on this one! Thanks @aroc !
#LMPBC #ROUND5 @lovesbooks87 @Patchshank
Look what made it home! My #LMPBC Round 4 pick! I am so glad you all enjoyed it. I liked it more than I thought I would.
Now to start my next #LMPBC Round 5 pick!

Today we will host the monthly Writers Coffehouse gathering in-store, led by local author Scott Sigler. The meeting wraps at 3:00, so plenty of time for both (unless one is engaged in party prep). #BookBowl @Librarianaut
@LectricSheep Thank you for the amazing #dystopianblues package! Everything looks incredible! Another kitty approved swap! #catsoflitsy
For an “adjective” in the 2018 Eclectic Readers Mad Libs Reading Challenge I picked Alive by Scott Silver. I acquired a hardback copy at a library book sale quite a while back. Looking forward to finally cracking it open as part of this reading challenge. #ERMadLibs #ScottSigler #scifi #ya #youngadult
pickI have to agree with other reviewers when they say the less you know about this book the better, makes writing a review damn tricky. a book with a wonderfully constructed story line with a twist I simply did not see coming. The comparsions to the Maze runner are not unfounded but this is a unique book. So for those of you that don't read books that are compared to other books - you know who you are - pick this book up now it will not disappoint.
My initial plan for curing my #bookhangover was to reread all of the Tom Robbins books that are gathering dust on my shelves. However, when I saw The Joy Luck Club, I remembered that it was my #LitsyAtoZ pick for J. These two are also on my list, so once I finished Amy Tan's beautiful book, I decided to read my choice for S, Alive by Scott Sigler. After that, I'm hoping to finally read The Girl on the Train for the letter G.
pickHey everyone. Happy Fourth of July!!
I really enjoyed this book it got me out of a pretty nasty reading slump and had some pretty great plot twists. I know two books are out and there is either a third coming or already out.

Day 22 of the #Riotgrams challenge: make a book face! If I ever write a book, I think I just found my author photo. 😝📚💗
Kind of excited about this Daily Deal. YA science-fiction where teens wake up, emerge from coffins, and have no idea where they are.
This YA series about Em and her band of survivors is wickedly fast-paced (Scott Sigler knows how to bring it!) and filled with suspense and some really horrifying moments. It takes place- wait- I don't want to tell you where it takes place! But it's not on Earth! For a very fast, fun and creepy read, you can find out. Fear the spear! @scottsigler #FunPhotoFriday
so-soThe first half of this book is a very clever retelling of The Lord of the Flies (isolated kids, formation of society, power struggle, a specific object the leader carries, there's even a pig...) nestled within a hard SF-like dystopia. An excellent ending to this book while leaving room to wonder where/how next book will start. But there's the hint of a love triangle (bleah), some of the dialogue felt stilted, & I wanted more "hard SF" than I got.
pickMy son and I really enjoyed Alive. He was hooked from the first chapter and I found that it is a great book to read aloud. (Not surprising since @scottsigler narrates all his books for his website)
Jed can't wait to start Alight but my library does not have it. Now to decide if I want to request the library purchase it, order the hardback, pre-order the paperback or purchase the ebook...

So, Littens, I trial-worked at the bookstore today. Got to shelve books (flailing arms!) and work on scheduling. Still in limbo! Argh! But, golly, LOVE the store. The Book Stall in Winnetka. #getindie #somethingforsept
As I finished reading Chapter 16 to my son, he says "Mom? Why are you so good at picking books?"
#practicemydearsonpractice
pickThis book is a slow burn but when the fire ignites you will be blown away!!
What the what? My kid just fell asleep while I was reading the first chapter to him! And here I was worried that this book might make it hard for him to get to sleep tonight.

pickFear the Spear! The first book in the this excellent trilogy is only $1.99 today. If you guys need some adrenaline, this book really brings it. A unique dystopian thriller filled with haunting imagery.
pickFun photo Friday for @Liberty- This was such a fun event. Mr. Sigler knows how to bring it!
Fear the Spear! I can't wait for the end of this trilogy to be published.
Just testing out Litsy for the first time. This book isn't even in the system yet.
