Well, not for Rose since she's been asleep in her stasis tube for 62 years.She awakes to find her world changed, her best friend (Xavier) and parents dead, and wild publicity swirling around her. Rose is the daughter of two very wealthy parents and...

I had a lot of conflicted feelings about this book. On one hand, probably about the first half was difficult to get through. The second half and the ending redeemed it slightly, but not enough to make it a great read. The biggest problem I had was with the romance. Brendan, the boy who woke Rose u...

I've had this on my wishlist since its deal announcement in 2010 (think that was the year). A futuristic involving stasis seemed perfect. Of course, I was more into cryonics, but nevertheless...Anna Sheehan's A Long, Long Sleep more than lives up to its premise, and is even more awesome than the sum...

What it comes down to is this: I am not into space books. It's just...it's not my thing, and I don't understand it because I love Star Trek. Sigh.

(originally posted on my LiveJournal account: http://intoyourlungs.livejournal.com/21840.html)I was at the library a couple of weeks ago looking for Remnant Population when I came across this book.

When I saw the rave review at The Book Smugglers of A Long, Long Sleep by Anna Sheehan, I knew I had to pick it up. Those girls are just never wrong! A Long, Long Sleep was absolutely as brilliant as I was expecting.A sci-fi/dystopian retelling of Sleeping Beauty. How amazing does that sound? I felt...

I really enjoyed this book, it has an original premise, compelling characters, and it made me cry, want to scream, and feel right along with the main character. I was frustrated with Rose as much as I loved her. I can see a lot of myself in her and I totally understand how she could come into the...
