YA DYSTOPIA
BRANDED BY ABI KETNER, MISSY KALICICKI
[SINNER’S TRILOGY] 
“ It’s a very intriguing and unique dystopian novel. It was surprising read and I didn’t expected to enjoy it as much as I did. The MC’s in the plot are really great and I really enjoyed their romantic relationship. Seriously, it was really amazing and highly recommended.”

 BLURB: Fifty years ago The Commander came into power and murdered all who opposed him. In his warped mind, the seven deadly sins were the downfall of society.

To punish the guilty, he created the Hole, a place where sinners are branded according to their sins. Sinners are forced to live a less than human existence in deplorable conditions, under the watchful eye of guards who are ready to kill anyone who steps out of line.

Now, LUST wraps around my neck like thick, blue fingers, threatening to choke the life out of me. I’ve been accused of a crime I didn’t commit, and the Hole is my new home.

Constant darkness.

Brutal and savage violence.

Excruciating pain.

Every day is a fight for survival.

But I won’t let them win. I will not die in the Hole.

I am more than my brand. I’m a fighter. My name is Lexi Hamilton, and this is my story.

NA FANTASY

AVERY BY CHARLOTTE MCCONAUGHY
[THE CHRONICLES OF KAYA]

“ This book was really good, after reading the first  few chapters, I was totally hooked. The story was very intriguing and I really enjoyed the love/hate relationship in it. Overall, it was beautiful and bittersweet read, and definitely worth a shot  ”

 BLURB: The people of Kaya die in pairs. When one lover dies, the other does too. So it has been for thousands of years – until Ava.

For although her bondmate, Avery, has been murdered and Ava’s soul has been torn in two, she is the only one who has ever been strong enough to cling to life. Vowing revenge upon the barbarian queen of Pirenti, Ava’s plan is interrupted when she is instead captured by the deadly prince of her enemies.

Prince Ambrose has been brought up to kill and hate. But when he takes charge of a strangely captivating Kayan prisoner and is forced to survive with her on a dangerous island, he must reconsider all he holds true . . .

In a violent country like Pirenti, where emotion is scorned as a weakness, can he find the strength to fight for the person he loves . . . even when she’s his vengeful enemy?

Avery is a sweeping, romantic fantasy novel about loss and identity, and finding the courage to love against all odds.
