panI only finished it bc I read it for school. It was dull, difficult to get into, and I never connected to the characters.
So I had a Star Wars gasim when I opened my #happilyeverafterswap box. Three books that have been on my TBR for a while, a Star Wars Funko I didn‘t have plus wonder woman and I‘m going to need to hide the Mandalorien pen dispensers before the nephews get here. Plus I have always wanted one of those zippered pouches. I‘ll be switching out the one in my work bag immediately.
Thank you @BookwormAHN I love it all!!!
so-so3⭐️—- the book was good the story was a good concept. I do feel like it was long there was not as much action and fighting as i thought there would be with a book that was sold to me being about space pirates. The characters were likable and i was cheering for them but they spent too much time on insignificant things instead of the more important things that also then made it feel a little rushed to me.
Im about 100 pages in and im trying really hard not to look at reviews from people because i want to experience it myself without others opinions forming how i read and review. It‘s pretty good the characters are enjoyable
so-soZenith isn‘t a good book, but did the book deserve the hate the booktube community gave it? I don‘t think so. https://youtu.be/kWYAYyhTNIw
Well damn...I think I‘ve finally figured out audiobooks just aren‘t for me. 😪 I have tried to listen to all of these, getting further in some more than others, but ultimately losing interest and opting for podcasts instead. The books aren‘t bad, in fact, I‘d like to finish most of these in print to see how the story ends. For now.. goodbye audiobooks 👋🏼 we had a good run while it lasted. 😔 🎧
I‘m working my way through Zenith. I keep getting distracted by work, house cleaning, and this guy‘s need for love. But I‘m hoping to finish this week cuz my TBR pile is full! (Not pictured: the 37 books awaiting me on my kindle 🤦🏼♀️)
so-so✨I really, realllllly wanted to like it, but it kind of fell short for me. Although it does have everything you'd want in a sci-fi action packed fantasy, at times it felt very cliche. Some chapters were well written, but the constantly switching between LOTS of povs was too much. Italicising words that didn't need to be became annoying fast. I did really enjoy some characters and I loved the concept, just not the execution.
⭐⭐⭐/5
so-so[#BookReview] Although this book has been widely criticized in the book community for being poorly written and rushed into publishing I wanted to finally pick it up and form my own opinions. Click the link below to read my review.

panSasha Alsberg and Lindsay Cummings‘s YA SF space opera novel (the first in a series) has some interesting ideas but is hampered by stilted characters (who seem too old for a YA book), bouncing point of views (at least 5) such that it was difficult to keep track of who was who, a tedious romance, predictable plotting and bloated over-writing such that I really didn‘t enjoy it and was relieved to get to the end.
Congratulations @Tiffy_Reads on your milestone! That‘s an amazing number!
I love Litsy because I can see what everyone is reading and how they feel about it. I have connected with some great people.
I have had my eye on Zenith (see tagged book)
so-so
bailedThe fact that this is the edited version (I listened to the actual audiobook and just followed with the ARC)...🙄🙄🙄
throwing in the towel at chapter 37. cringey writing, annoying and underdeveloped characters, meh pace, a romance that I don't like...and did I mention cringey writing?...AND I WATCHED A LIFETIME ROMANCE MOVIE TODAY!
panThis book was not good! The characters were either bland or contradicted themselves constantly. The plot was meh and uneventful. And the couple things that happened had just been plans that worked or things that a character suspected would happen. So it was completely predictable. The writing wasn‘t great either. It was just overall and underwhelming book. I nearly DNFd

I should be reading a bunch of other things, but I‘m getting stuck into this one instead. Look how pretty the chapter headings are!
Currently reading Zenith, by Sasha Alsberg and Lindsay Cummings. ♥️
so-soBook 3 of #24in48 my audiobook pick. Also I‘m officially 17+ hours in!! I‘m torn on this one. It‘s not awful but it‘s not great. I‘m left curious enough to see how the writing improved in book 2. Full review will definitely be on my blog Tuesday.
pickI love this book so much that I couldn‘t put this book down. I Highly Recommend This Book And I Give It 5 stars
I‘m in the acknowledgements of Zenith 😭😭😭 Lindsay is always making me cry 😭💖😭💖😭💖
January TBR is travelling well! I have already finished The Woman in the Window and Zenith (both of which I loved!), And have started Rebecca already.
Heated blanket and a book kind of night while I journey through space 🚀
“I don‘t need to get any arcs at #YallFest” - Friday 10/12 then today I got this 😱
These are the books I‘m most looking forward to so far this next year!
Batman: Nightwalker releases Jan. 2018, Force of Nature in Feb. 2018, and Zenith in Jan. 2018.
I love being a bookseller 💚 Are there any books you are excited for?
I got a ZENITH sampler!!! I can't wait for this book to be out in the world! 👽✨
so-soSolid start found in Zenith but clearly a first effort book. Focuses on a single episode in a plot but characters have potential as does the story. Bit too tell vs show, however that can be fixed. Still interested for next installments.
