4.5 stars!The main character of this book has such an unique voice, and is probably one of the very few heroines in YA/fantasy that I have absolutely adored. She's funny, kickass, caring, honest and such a good person all in all (putting aside her pirate ways). I'll finish my review later because ri...
I'm a huge fan of Philip K. Dick, and I adored this speculative, alternate reality book. It's been labelled "steampunk" in a lot of reviews, but that's very misleading. Steam powered droids do not a steampunk novel make. It's really a genrebuster and speculative scifi at its best. An no, there are n...
It's the time of the year when I look at my TBR pile of dead-tree books and realize I only have a few months to get through it before I get another book bag at this year's World Fantasy Convention.

The magical world, the magical associations, characters, and pretty much everything makes no sense to me. I'm not a usual YA reader, not...
Dark, gritty and inventive, I was drawn to this book by it’s premise--robots and humans living together uneasily under Antarctic domes. Throw in a ruined amusement park, exploitation by “mainlanders” back in South America, and the fact that the robots are evolving and there was no way I could resist...
The Pirate's Wish by Cassandra Rose Clarke My rating: 5 of 5 stars I've misplaced it again. But I've found it again, so hopefully I will be able to finish it before it grows legs again.It seems that the plot is moving really really fast. I mean the story jumps feet first into action. Also, it doesn'...
"This is a prequel to Cassandra Rose Clarke's Our Lady of the Ice, a sci-fi novel to be published in October 2015. White Out is an atmospheric stunner, at least in the opinion of this Australian who's never experienced ice and snow. Noëlle is a scientist intent on testing the limits of Ami, a robot....
