It was something I definitely wasn't expecting to be part of the this kind of book, but ended up being amazing & perfectly melded into the plot. I can't wait for more of this universe!

This book sounds so fantastic and I can't wait to get the opportunity to read it for myself. The contrasts point that you make really intrigues me - it can be hard to always pull of extremes convincingly, but it sounds as though Spooner and Kaufman did a great job here! Also loving the fact this will be a companion novel series. Lovely review, Lauren! Glad it lived up to the hype for you!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052456915027241479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-42697772316495811452013-11-21T14:24:24.678-05:002013-11-21T14:24:24.678-05:00What a fantastic review!

I adored Tarver and his protective nature but I also appreciated Lilac's insistence to stand on her own. Such a phenomenal book and your review captures the spirit of the novel brilliantly!starryeyedjenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15841350560201331032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-74270651574950879022013-11-17T17:51:16.615-05:002013-11-17T17:51:16.615-05:00I just LOVE the idea of exploring uncharted territ...I just LOVE the idea of exploring uncharted territory in space! But the prospect of exploring an uninhabited planet after a disastrous space crash is frightening (which only makes me want to read this story even more)! I want to read all about the atmospheric descriptions of the deserted and ominous planet. I want to read how these two unlikely characters band together to survive, but most importantly, I want to read how their love story unravels when there is so much to be feared. Ahhh! Your review makes me so excited for this book, Lauren; I can't stress that enough! Perfect, perfect, perfect, review! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12274355208601978550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-90767166609833480872013-11-14T09:01:53.433-05:002013-11-14T09:01:53.433-05:00Yep--you nailed it in this review! This book was a...Yep--you nailed it in this review! This book was awesome--and I am not much for survivalist stories (they freak me out) but this one didn't. I really like your first point about the contrast between the loud and quiet--I didn't think of it in those terms when I was reading but now that you have mentioned it , YES. You are so right--the contrast is huge and powerful:) And that THING--that jaw dropping event--gah! It left my head spinning for a while:)<br /><br />I can't wait for book #2--so many speculations about the characters and how the story will progress! Fantastic review:))Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026974627724672435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-10703612950672436352013-11-12T21:38:25.303-05:002013-11-12T21:38:25.303-05:00I love the way you described the romance, I really...I love the way you described the romance, I really can't wait for this book. And you've completely piqued my interest with the part of the book that you can't believe they went there. What happens?? Oh well, I'm one of the few people who didn't get an ARC of this book so I'll have to wait until December! :) Great review! ~Pamyaescapefromrealityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200254719073248981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-58865196162597116402013-11-12T19:25:49.121-05:002013-11-12T19:25:49.121-05:00This is one of my FAVORITE reviews of this book, L...This is one of my FAVORITE reviews of this book, Lauren. You've captured exactly what I like about it and explained the story and mood so well--I know if I hadn't already read it, I would be panting to get my hands on a copy!
