I loved this book! I think it's a perfect book for kids. Not only is it fun (and funny) but it also presents a wonderful message of peace and tolerance. There's not just aliens but different cultures and ethnic groups, and very strong girl characters! Sure hope he comes out with the followup.
Beware the Dwobleys!

Okay...
Have you read Cindy Gerard's three series? Christy Reece's LCR Elite series? Or her Grey Justice series? What about the Delta Crossroads series by Stacy Green?

On the Urban Fantasy front:
Biting Bad, Wild Things and Blood Games by Chloe Neill (Chicagoland Vampires #8-10 - a series that gets better with each book)
First Grave on the Right by Darynda Jones (Charley Davidson #1 - Liked it a lot; will continue the series)
Grave Witch by Kalayna Price (Alex Craft #1 - haven't seen anyone comment on this series, but #1 was un-put-downable. Binge read on the horizon.)
From the Mystery/Thriller genre:
Last Light: A Beacon Falls Novel, Featuring Lucy Guardino by C.J. Lyons (Beacon Falls/Lucy Guardino #1 - the start of Lucy G. after the FBI. Outstanding as always. New characters, some needing development in the next book, but Lucy is still the k-a heroine from the first series)
To maintain my blood pressure between all the thrillers, read books in CR (won't detail since this isn't a CR blog group):
Fools Gold series by Susan Mallery
Chesapeake Shores series by Sherryl Woods
Pelican Pointe series by Vickie McKeehan
Lucky Harbor series by Jill Shalvis
Cedar Ridge series by Jill Shalvis
Mystic Creek series by Catherine Anderson







I've been considering picking up Grave Witch now I might have to put it on my tbr pile! Also love the Lucky Harbor series!

You should definitely check out this series, Jonetta. I think you'll like it. The first one was good, but I really liked this one.
I finished Fatal Frenzy by Marie Force, Fatal #9, and really enjoyed the story, though a tough read at times. Here's my review.
I also finished my review of Thief of Shadows.
I'm now reading Brotherhood in Death by J.D. Robb, In Death #42!

I'm really glad I talked myself into another series. I've never been attracted to any sort of futuristic novel, but after a couple of chapters, Eve and Roarke gained my attention right away. I have the second book at hand for when I finish the first :-)

I am more worried that this is too similar to Red Rising by Pierce Brown. But, I'm on hold for the audiobook anyway:)

I read through a zillion comments on the first book late last night, and found myself commenting at the end about things that were written two weeks ago :(
