Initial reaction: I'll admit I enjoyed so much of this novel, and I felt for Emma's experiences throughout the novel. Sci-fi mystery/futuristic thriller with quite a few WTF moments.Full review:"Archetype" might be one of my favorite stories of recent memory for the kind of story it portrays. There ...

Archetype is a sci-fi dystopian novel with memory loss, romance, a resistance movement, and a strong heroine. It is an excellent book and a new personal favorite. Any review I would write at this point will not do it justice, and is difficult to write without spoilers. So instead, here is a list...

This book made me so happy! These are the types of books that I look for and can rarely ever find. It is different, mysterious and suspenseful. I stayed awake reading Archetype until 4:30 this morning because I couldn't put it down. It was freaking fantastic.The first half of the book was very i...

Emma Burke has amnesia, and in science fiction that can only mean one thing: her memory has seemingly been erased, because nothing is ever an accident. But fragments are returning: times of relationship bliss, dangerous teenage years, and a revolutionary career. But these go against what she's been ...

This is one of those books I wasn't even planning to read and only did because my mom pulled it off the shelf at her bookstore. But, boy am I glad I did!

And if you’re a hater-troll who enjoys harassing reviewers, please bear in mind that my friend thought this book was just okay and I wanted to read it anyway. And then I ended up really enjoying it. So ...

He sighs and slows to a stop. “There are a lot of things about the world we live in that you don’t understand. Things you’ll find out in time.” This is such a strange book. I didn't hate it, but it was just too much, too confusing. This book is like a strange mixture of Gone Girl and The Handmaid's ...

Oh wow... I don't know how to review this or where to begin. I am not even sure on how to do it without spoiling the book, but I will try. Emma wakes up in a hospital with no memory what so ever from what happened before she opened her eyes. All she now knows is what this man Declan, who claims ...
