New Release Tuesday...The Ones I'm Psyched For [8]

Ruins (Parials #3) by Dan Wells

Summary

Kira, Samm, and Marcus fight to prevent a final war between Partials and humans in the gripping final installment in the Partials Sequence, a series that combines the thrilling action of The Hunger Games with the provocative themes of Blade Runner and The Stand.

There is no avoiding it—the war to decide the fate of both humans and Partials is at hand. Both sides hold in their possession a weapon that could destroy the other, and Kira Walker has precious little time to prevent that from happening. She has one chance to save both species and the world with them, but it will only come at great personal cost.

I read Partial back in February and it has to be one of my favorite books I've read so far this year. I have yet to read Fragments but even so, I am very excited for the release of the final book in the Partials sequence.

Summary

We weren't always like this. We used to be average New York City high school sophomores. Until our homeroom went for flu shots. We were prepared for some side effects. Maybe a headache. Maybe a sore arm. We definitely didn't expect to get telepathic powers. But suddenly we could hear what everyone was thinking. Our friends. Our parents. Our crushes. Now we all know that Tess is in love with her best friend, Teddy. That Mackenzie cheated on Cooper. That, um, Nurse Carmichael used to be a stripper.

Since we've kept our freakish skill a secret, we can sit next to the class brainiac and ace our tests. We can dump our boyfriends right before they dump us. We know what our friends really think of our jeans, our breath, our new bangs. We always know what's coming. Some of us will thrive. Some of us will crack. None of us will ever be the same.
So stop obsessing about your ex. We're always listening.

My Review

I have to say I was unexpectedly surprised at how good Don't Even Think About It by Sarah Mlynowski is when I finished reading it. I was expecting a fluffy YA read with a little bit of paranormal mixed in but it turned out to be a lot more. I really enjoyed all of the characters points of view and they all had their own unique flavor.
