Awesome! :D <br />I'm so jealous that you're still getting Summer weather :( It feels like we had it for about a week and it disappeared... though that could be because I work nights :P he he. <br />Great covers on the books you've shown! That Nerd looks really good (based on the cover, lol). <br />I hope you're enjoying Dark Matter, I've never watched it myself but I think I'm going to have to look into it!<br />Have a great week!<br />Amy xAmy @ A Novel Starthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17154062221442662039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-35294238972401123612015-09-21T11:57:23.354-07:002015-09-21T11:57:23.354-07:00I've read the first one and did like it- it wa...I've read the first one and did like it- it was very atmospheric, with a steampunk- ish London and other elements.

The story and writing were fine, it just didn't wow me. You basically see ALL the events of the original trilogy through the eyes of these characters, and they were kinda interesting, but I wasn't super invested in the story until the end. I liked Heir of the Jedi a lot more. <br /><br />The romance itself doesn't kick in until later in the story, they're mostly friends for the first half, but still... it's just OK. I've heard some of the flap about Aftermath and all the one star reviews, and given your thoughts I might skip it. <br /><br />Lost Stars gives us Coruscant and some other iconic locations, but I don't know, it's not bad I just didn't love it. Pretty ambivalent.

Part of me is a bit worried it'll be too dumbed down, or focus on romance and not the overall Star Wars feel of it. I just don't want the universe to get lost in favor of hormones. I'm actually struggling through Aftermath right now, it's first SW book in the new set that I haven't liked. <br />I'll have to check out the Frightfall event and the Sci-Fi month!<br />I hope you have an awesome week!Michelle @ In Libris Veritashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07491579673142118208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-77475202130691287302015-09-20T20:37:37.873-07:002015-09-20T20:37:37.873-07:00Even though I thought the book was a disappointing...Even though I thought the book was a disappointing end to the series, I'm looking forward to the Allegiant movie. I've got 3 episodes of Hannibal to finish the final season, the latest season of Downton Abbey has started and Scandal on Friday ... hell yes!! But I'm adding The 100 and Dark Matter to my viewing list :) <br />Have a great week and happy reading!
