Insignia is a fun new series that I'm glad to get to when it's on the ground floor. Kincaid's voice is strong and unique. I love her characters and their interactions. They didn't just feel real, they felt like the friends you always wanted to have when you were that age. The one big problem I had w...
WHEN IS THE SEQUEL COMING OUT????? OMG! I WANT TO MARRY THIS BOOK! I think it's my favorite dystopian book now! everything about this story is fantastic!
So, in the end, it turns out that Insignia is a pretty cool book. It totally reminds me of Harry Potter--but with teens attending a futuristic military school in a science fiction setting instead of a castle to learn magic in a fantasy setting.The story is about Tom--the boy whose got the special "i...
n a sentence or so: Ubergamer teen Tom Raines is drafted by the US Military to train for and eventually virtually fight in World War III going down in space.Tom doesn't live a great life. He bounces from hotel to hotel with his gambling dad and attends a virtual high school...sometimes. He's not cut...
Wow. I grabbed this book at the library, remembering seeing it on GR or Shelfari or something but not really knowing anything about the book. I was not just pleasantly surprised, I was totally wowed. I don't know why, but this book just really impressed me. I was a little skeptical about the pre...

But, because goodreads' rating system only allows for how much I personally enjoyed the book, I'm not prepared to go so far as to say "I liked it" and give it 3 stars as t...
Note: I tried to keep spoilers to a minimum. I only reveal the ending (just a brief point about something that is not really important for the plot...yet), so I still feel pretty evil about it. :DKeywords: School, tactics, military, teen, young adult, cyber-tactics, corporations, power, corruption, ...
I’d heard S.J. Kincaid’s INSIGNIA pitched as Harry Potter meets Ender’s Game, and simply had to snag myself a copy. Having finished reading, I can definitely see the comparisons. A skilled gamer and con-artist, Tom Raines is snatched up by an elite military training program and whisked off to Pentag...
Insignia is the type of book that would have blown me away if I had been any younger. While it is marketed as a Young Adult Novel, I'd probably recommend it for mature middle grade students or young high schoolers. I definitely don't see anything wrong in reading it as an older teen, like me, but i...
