The Adventures of Space Girl Red was a delightful mash-up of scifi (think orginal Flash Gordon with ray guns and flying saucers) meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer. With retro tech, a plucky main character, and healthy dose of fun, Red's adventures kept me listening. My only complaint is it was so good I couldn't pace myself and it was over too soon. Luckily, I'm on to The Adventures of Space Girl Green!
Trained as an agent of the women of the planet Home, brand new Space Girl Red must stop a war between flying monkeys, robot armies, and a nanotech powered God King.Born and raised on a planet where no boys are born, Red was always the fastest and strongest among her unit of Space Girls, Capricorn. Capricorn was legendary before entering the academy, but training rivalries turned deadly when Blue tries to one-up Red in the real galaxy.The first domino falls when a mysterious robot army steals the World Heart of Kenix, the only source of power for the plant people…
Book 4 of Sarah Lyons Fleming's Cascadia series doesn't disappoint. If you're a fan of character driven zombie apocalypse adventures, you should be reading her books (and listening to the audio). Rose, Tom (swoon!), Craig, Clara and the rest of the gang continue their struggle to survive in the post-apocalyptic landscape of the Pacific Northwest. Lyons Fleming's characterization is second to none, and her ability to spin a yarn with surprising twists and turns is impeccable. Whichever of her series you start with - Until the End of the World, The City, or Cascadia - prepare to meet your new best friends and your worst nightmare enemies, who aren't always zombies.
Even the best plans come undone.With their supplies reclaimed and food enough for the future, the group at Barry’s cabin can do more than just scrape by. Between fruitful gardens, great friends, and sturdy fences—not to mention karaoke—life in the zompoc is better than ever.Nothing is perfect, however. Across the country, Safe Zones are mysteriously going dark, and Oregon’s summer weather has turned the forest into a tinderbox. As the unknown danger closes in, and smoke begins to fill the sky, the survivors are all too aware of how quickly plans unravel, fences fall, and luck runs out.
The Spare Room delivered. With characters who are funny, flawed, relatable and kind, a sense of fun, and a slow burn romance that will leave your fingers singed in the nicest way, it's a simply bang up romance with an ending so sweet, your teeth ache. This is the first book by Laura Starkey for me, but it won't be the last.
