Such a good compilation of stories and great writing (okay with the exception of a couple of stories which almost made me ditch the book and which I believe greatly diminished the overall quality of the anthology)Here are my ratings for each story:"The Birds of Azalea Street" 4 stars This story was ...
Wow this book was so good! I skipped eating again. LOL Everything Megan Shepherd has written I've absolutely loved. It's a lot different from her retelling series though but she nailed this one too. Basically, several teenagers wake-up in the desert with no idea how they got there or why... And th...
Finally a Trilogy with a Complete & Satisfying Conclusion!!Megan Shepherd is one author who knows how to close a trilogy out properly! Yeah I'm sad that it's over but I'm also glad that the series didn't end with more questions then answers like a lot of series have ended lately. She tied up the loo...
Her Dark Curiosity is book two in The Madman's Daughter series about Dr. Moreau's daughter, Juliet. Where the first book was based loosely on H.G.

From Megan Shepherd, the acclaimed author of The Madman's Daughter trilogy. When Cora Mason wakes in a desert, she doesn't know where she is or who put her there. As sh...
The Cage is the story of teenagers locked up in a kind of alien zoo. I know, this sounds weird. But this whole idea was brilliant, I liked the fact that the aliens do not see humans as intelligent because they are not able to use telepathic communication, like we do not see animals as intelligent be...
As I began reading, this reminded me of my favorite Twilight Zone episode. I am transfixed by the episode of the two human adults who are trapped inside a small town and suddenly they hear laughing. Later, they discover everything inside their small world is stationary and fake. As the final scene p...
Initial reaction: 2.5 stars overall, I liked the setup and really liked the beginning, but it dragged its heels far too many times and force fed the relationships far too much for me to really like it more than what I did. I want to follow the series, though. Full review: This is another YA sci-fi...
