**** I was sent an earc to review from the author/publish. All of my thoughts are my honest opinion.******
Edition: e-ARC
Pages: 307
Series or Standalone: Series, New World #2
Published: June 7th, 2016
Publisher: Of Tomes
Goodreads Synopsis: "After Phoenix, a 17-year-old orphan rogue, sacrifices herself for her loved ones, her world again takes an unexpected turn. She may have forgotten her past, but it hasn’t forgotten her. A war is coming and her role in it will be pivotal.
That is... if she survives.
“The much-anticipated sequel to New World: Rising.” "
Plot: 4/5 Hot Aliens
It takes off almost right where the first book ends, which is...... intense. The plot then progressed onward and grrrrrr I want to tell you all everything but you guys know me, and I find everything to be a spoiler. I just don't want to say something that will spoil it for someone. Just know that the plot takes off in this book and it keeps you enthralled.
There were a few things I wasn't a fan of. I felt like the beginning was rushed. It might have just been me though. I guessed most of the surprises, but that didn't bother me too much since I was able to guess a ton of plot points in book one. I really just need to stop thinking I'll be surprised by books since I rarely am ever.
Characters 4/5 Hot Aliens
I loved the characters as much as I did in the first book, if not more.
Phoenix developed even more. Grr I want to talk about how well written she was in this book, but I guess I can't since you know, that's 100% spoilers.
Triven. Oh Triven. I really like him, but at the same time he annoys me. I'm actually not even sure why since I like his character.
Mouse is such a cute, little tough button. She's so strong. She's also maybe my favorite character.
Notes: These may make zero sense to you, but read the book and I'm sure you'll figure out where I said these.
Dun dun dun - 5%
Why isn't this word used more? - 31% vendetta. I feel like it would be useful in so many books.
Current issues in the world today? - 41%
Ham ham ham ham ham ham ham - 51% She wrote "right hand man", I fangirled.
Then I wrote "called it" a few times which I will not be revealing the percentages I was at. Plus, they were scattered so I hope that helps you in trying to find out :)
So at the end, it had the title of the next book and I was like: yessssss
Overall: I really enjoyed this book and cannot wait for the next novel!
4/5 Hot Aliens

Anna
