Enter the vivid and cinematic world of Faloiv in the first book of this dazzling YA sci-fi/fantasy duology, perfect for fans of Carve the Mark, Red Rising, and These Broken Stars. Octavia has always dreamed of becoming a whitecoat, one of the prestigious NTerra scientists who study the natural wonders of Faloiv. So when the once-secretive labs are suddenly opened to students, she leaps at the chance to see what happens behind their closed doors. However, she quickly discovers that all is not what it seems on Faloiv, and the experiments the whitecoats have been doing run the risk of upsetting the humans fragile peace with the Faloii, Faloivs indigenous people. As secret after disturbing secret comes to light, Octavia finds herself on a collision course with the charismatic and extremist new leader of NTerras ruling council. But by uncovering the mysteries behind the history shes been taught, the science shes lived by, and the truth about her family, she threatens to be the catalyst for an all-out war.

Olivia Cole masters the art of similes in this science fiction novel. By using similes, Cole careful matches planet Faloiv's unfamiliar elements to the main character‘s emotions in both tone and texture, which helps the reader connect and visualize.

#25 of my year. This one has been on my TBR list for a year so I am excited to dive in.

Caffeinated_Reader Man that was a great story. I can‘t believe it took me so long to read this one. I love it. The ending was all chaos and destruction, it was great. 5y

This is a volume very close to the top of my tbr amd what is In The Pale Moonlight really but a conspiracy in the stars? People have already said a lot of good stuff about the episode in question, but let me add my voice to the chorus: it's an excellent episode. A minor bit I love: the dipping into the more sinister aspect of Garak. I'm very glad he isn't like this all the time, but he definitely has some darkness in him.

I met this author at a bookstore event. I‘m not usually a fan of sci-fi, so I wasn‘t going to buy the book, but after I heard her talk & met her, I decided to try it out. I love the characters, & she thankfully left out the ya love triangle trope. This one has a lot of world building, then major action at the end. Some good themes about environment, respect for indigenous people, & power. I‘m excited to read the next one in the series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Finally getting into January‘s #Uppercase book! So far it has my intrigue, as I am a die hard animal lover and this is chalk full of unique and alien animals!

I tend to dislike science fiction. You can world build me a fantasy land with the most intricate magic system and complex societal dynamics with 100 people with similar names & I will fall in love. But turn the land into a different planet, and the magic into science and I zone out. That didn‘t happen with this book. I feel like I just got back from a voyage to a richly detailed distant world, and I can‘t wait to return. Definitely Recommend.

ApoptyGina69 Totally agree w you there. Somehow space just doesn‘t do it for me. 👍📚 7y

Only read one chapter so far and I‘m already in love. 🖤 Methinks this is going to have to go on my “to-get” list. I think the library would notice if their copy suddenly went missing 😋

Hoping to make a dent in the upper left stack for #24in48 and if I get burnt out on fantasy and Sci-fi, I have my library books that are mostly contemporary. And if *that* doesn't work, I have the TBR shelves of new releases and previous book box subscriptions... not like I'll get to all these, I just like options.

Just received A Conspiracy of Stars by Olivia A. Cole in my January Uppercase. It‘s a YA science fiction novel of a foreign planet and the exotic creatures and plants that duel there, as well as some political scandal it seems. Personally I‘ve never heard of it until now, hopefully it‘s a good pick! #Uppercase

bunny This was on my wishlist, so I‘m happy to have found it inside my Uppercase package. Hope you enjoy reading it! 7y
Cailey_Mac @bunny it‘s definitely next on my list once I‘ve finished my kindle book! I love reading along with the different “codes” they provide, it almost feels like I‘m in a book club! 7y
bunny @Cailey_Mac I‘ve actually never done the readalong, but now you‘ve got me I should try it. 7y
Cailey_Mac @bunny it definitely makes reading the book more enjoyable for me! 7y

Mehso-so

Kind of a “meh” start to 2018.

This is an interesting fantasy with rich world building, I just couldn‘t get into it. But I love the cover.
