I read everything MVS publishes and this novel was a thematic departure from her regular fare. It was more science-fiction than her regular fantasy genre. I don't think it matters at all what genre the woman writes within because she continual delivers excellent stories.
I devoured this novel in one day because I could not put it down. It was quick paced, incredibly imaginative and exciting. The second half of the book just rushes with action.
Trella, the main character, starts off rather irritat

Maria V. Snyder always strikes gold...it's a no brainer anymore to be honest. I'm not sure why I waited so long to dive into this one, but regardless it was well worth the wait. I'm already of course anxious to get to the store so I can pick up the second installment and see what is in store for Trella and the rest of Snyder's characters next.

I'll admit I wasn't sure what to expect going into this one other than what little description readers are given with the back cover. I knew it would be a

"For the first time, I was the center of attention. Everyone watched me as if I were a bomb. Would I explode and cause a disaster or would I pop and cause a miracle?"

Snyder writes a fantastic distopian vision of a future life. Inside OUT was terrifying and claustrophobic. Snyder has a tendency to write strong female characters with seemingly endless amounts of stamina, and Trella falls into this role nicely. Snyder is such a versitile author transitioning from Fantasy to Science Fiction. Inside Out is a incredible book for all to read- especially young adults!

It took a bit of concentration to get into the book, but after that I really enjoyed it. I liked the main character Trella, looking forward to the next one.
