Oh, Fear Justice blew my mind and now I am having trouble putting into words just how this book impacted me. This is a story about the discovery of oneself and how beautiful being different is.

I enjoyed this read, a sci-fi action story with a fast storyline. Occasionally I wondered if it was a bit too quick, but it didn’t hinder the story in any way. There’s a lot of room for this story to grow in the future books.

Wow! This is such a great book- full of action, suspense, and even a bit of mystery. Picture this. Situation, imagine that you're a senior in high school, Regina Mason, Rena for short. Your mom died a few years ago, and your dad has turned to drinking to drown his sorrows. A new student comes to your school one day, good looking but strange in that he wear gloves all the time, and always has his skin fully covered his arms and neck, even in the sweltering Florida heat where yo live. That is wher

This is what might be called a young/adult thriller type of genre. I am not a young adult. Sometimes I’m not even an old adult (just a grown-up kid) but I really enjoyed this book. It sort of grabs you at the beginning...a young girl, pretty well raising her younger brother alone because their dad can’t seem to get past the death of their mother. And yet, this particular story is not that story. Rena, or Regina, seems to be a strong young girl who is fearless and the writing to paint a picture o

In some ways this book reminded me of the Heroes series. A mysterious woman who had special powers and then disappeared. Her connection to people in Rena’s hometown and herself. Her father who is no good and yet she still stays to protect her younger brother. When her father disappears, Rena suspects kidnapping, and she gets herself in big trouble until she is rescued by an Agent. Agent Travis Payne has his own motives for seeking Rena out. She is his mission he must complete if he wants to stay

I received this from Voracious Readers Only in exchange for an honest review, this was a fast paced thriller for young adults. About a girl living in a campground with her drunk of a father and younger brother who she has to take care of. Enter the smouldering new student who makes a point to get her interest, then the action begins. This kind of read like a comic book with the main character coming into her own so quickly, but all in all a good read .

I received a free copy of this book via Voracious Readers Only. I thoroughly enjoyed it.........and read it all in one go! I was a tad nervous to begin with because some young adult heroes/heroines can be annoyingly vacuous which tends to make me not care about what happens to them! I very much cared about Rena, and will purchase the other books in the series.

Good book
I received this book for free and I am doing an honest review. Took me a few chapters to get into this book, but once I did it was actually pretty good. I’m normally not into too much sci-fi, so that part lost me a little, but I really enjoyed the storyline. Will be reading the next book to see what else happen.

I really enjoyed reading this book. It's many genres; adventure, thriller, mystery, paranormal, romance and science fiction really combined to make one unputdownable terrific book. There's a lot of action, danger and suspens with some twists and turns. I also loved the main characters. I look forward to reading more books in the series.
