The Corridor (The Corridor #1) by A.N. Willis ---> Starting 10/23/15

[Megan]

Infinite worlds. Endless possibilities . . .

Stel Alaster has never known life without the Corridor. It appeared suddenly seventeen years ago, the only portal to a parallel version of our world—Second Earth. Everyone on First Earth fears Mods, the genetically modified Second Earthers who built the Corridor. They are too smart, too strong, and have powers that can’t be controlled. Any Mod found on First Earth is branded, then detained in the Corridor’s research labs.

Only Stel has a dangerous secret. She has a power, too: She can open a portal to Second Earth . . . and several other parallel universes she’s discovered. If anyone ever finds out, she’ll be imprisoned, no better than a Mod or common lab rat.

But when the Corridor starts to fail, emitting erratic bursts of energy that could destroy First Earth, Stel must risk everything to save the people and world she loves. With the help of an escaped Mod and an infuriatingly arrogant boy from a third universe, Stel sets out to unravel the mysteries of the Corridor and stabilize it before it’s too late. The fate of every world lies in the balance. . . .

(view spoiler)[interesting so far! Still getting used to the characters and story, but I'm liking it already! (hide spoiler)]

[Megan]

Finished chapter 5 (view spoiler)[ It's pretty good so far. Though at first it was a little confusing, from the first chapter to the second, because I wasn't sure what had happened to her.

I wonder if the Earth Estele travels to is really her Earth, not a third one like she thinks, but in the future after a disaster or something.

It's terrible the way they treat the Mods! I hope that Estelle will somehow help get them free. (hide spoiler)]

[Megan]

Finished chapter 11 (view spoiler)[ Hmm, it's interesting how this version of Earth named them after Zodiac signs, instead of calling their planet first Earth as if they were superior to the other one.

Patricia seems really nice. I'm looking forward to seeing how Stel's relationship with this family grows. What was Cohl's problem with Stel? Does he have some special ability too? (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[She does seem nice! Just wait until to get farther -- things get very interesting with Cohl and why he acts the way he does. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[I liked the book, but it wasn't a favorite. I didn't care for the skinny dipping scene or the insta-love that happened between the main characters. It was interesting how Stel's father wasn't her biological father and she is really from a different one of the parallel universes. (hide spoiler)]

[Megan]

Finished chapter 18 (view spoiler)[She's adopted! What?!? (hide spoiler)]

[Megan]

Finished chapter 28 (view spoiler)[If she can make portals that stay without her, hopefully the people on First Earth/Leo Earth will let her do that and stop their corridor building.

So sad that her father died! I personally this it was partly Justin's fault, because of the way he handled his orders. (hide spoiler)]

[Megan]

Finished chapter 29 (view spoiler)[I don't know why, but I feel that Justin will turn Estele in rather that help her. (hide spoiler)]

[Megan]

Finished chapter 30 (view spoiler)[Oh no! What if Lissa is playing them and is going to report them instead of helping! I sure hope not. (hide spoiler)]
