I only grabbed this book because I thought cover looked interesting. I didn’t put two and two together until I finished the book. Creepy and at the same time a good horror sci fi in the YA section. To be fair, the pace of the book starts off a little slow at first. Think of it as a very slow intr...

**SPOILER FREE** OH MY GOD, THIS BOOK! Just finished this book and I feel like my head just exploded! This one is a sci-fi/horror targeted for young adult readers. NASA has been suffering from lack of interest, and lack of funding. They haven't sent anyone to the moon since 1972. NASA decided...

SPACE.I feel like this book probably deserves only three stars because of some faults with the writing, pacing, and buildup, but I enjoyed it so much (and the setting), that I'm going to give it four anyway.NASA decides to return to the moon, and for funding and publicity, holds a contest that will ...

I may have abhorred the main characters, and that ending, but I actually enjoyed reading it the last 150 pages. Of course most of that time was spent trying to hide myself under the blankets without suffocating. Now if only I could recall where I put my notes on this....

Original Title: Darlah - 172 timer på månen Note: I read a Dutch translation of this book; and yes, I'm complaining about said translation Another Note: Lots of spoilers ahead. Please Beware! I wanted to read this book for ages. The story seemed so promising, but for me it was a big disappoint...

That was...intense! Not normally a scifi reader but I saw the book recommended on a few blogs Halloween scary reads recs last year so I got it from iBooks. Started off kind of slow, but interesting enough even with NASA and space jargon to keep going and a few unsettling incidents happening to ...

"Darlah" habe ich zum ersten Mal zufällig in einer Buchhandlung entdeckt. Das Cover sprach mich sofort an (ich liebe Blau ;)), der Inhalt klang ebenfalls interessant, zumal ich schon immer ein Faible für Science Fiction hatte und außerdem ist es ja mal etwas anderes als die vielen Vampire und Werwöl...

I've heard only good things about this novel and I expected to like it. Which I did.But it was more than liking. It blew my mind. I've never read such a creepy and totally realistic book. It seemed to me that it could have been a possible future of our world. Everything was plausible and I was creep...

I just finished Johan Harstad's 172 Hours on the Moon and I'm afraid I don't have a single nice thing to say about it. It was given to me as "teen science fiction." Instead, it is a poorly conceived, boring and ultimately ridiculous whiny supernatural horror novel. Perhaps if John Ajvide Lindqvist h...
