Cure for the Common Universe. It sounds interesting and different from what I would normally read.
ReplyDeleteGenesis Girl looks like a great read. I'm slowly getting into YA sci-fi.
ReplyDeleteCure For The Common Universe. Unique sounding story with it seems like funny parts. Gaming rehab may become more popular in the future - ;)

ReplyDeleteLovely post sweet girl. <3 Both books looks awesome :D I just. Sigh. Sadly, I don't feel the need to read about new books, lol, because I don't want new books :p There are already so many books coming out by authors I already love that I'm going to read.. I don't need even more. Ahhh. But if I really, really love a cover, I will check out the book too, haha :)
