Review - The Brightness Between Us by Eliot Shrefer
My rating: 
It’s been 17 years since Kodiak and Ambrose landed on the planet they were sent to colonize. The planet was not the earthly paradise they were expecting. Few of the plants and animals they bought with them can grow well, and only two of the children whose embryos they grew have survived. There were so many deaths they stopping trying. Back on earth, 30,000 years earlier, the original Ambrose and Kodiak are dealing with the truth: There never was a rescue mission to Titan.

Review - Grayson Ryder: A Thief's Thrill by M. L. Giles
My rating:
Grayson Ryder is quite the bad boy. He is a pickpocket and a thief, although he only steals enough for him and his sister to get by. It’s not just a lack of job skills that keeps Grayson stealing. He enjoys the thrill and danger of it. When most of the world’s people are killed by a devastating disease, Grayson’s skills suddenly become very useful among the survivors. His ability to think quickly, size up a situation, and get in and out of places without being seen come in handy among the small groups of people trying to stay alive, but Grayson has always been a loner.

Review - The Purpose of Sactuary by C.J. Dragon
My rating:
Note, this book is part of a series meant to be read in order. This review of the third book in the set may contain spoilers about the previous installments. Jon and Talin have returned to Daran, but things are far from settled there. A rogue member of the Warriors is rallying support against acceptance of the human Jon, even more so after it’s revealed he has Duranii DNA. Talin’s over-protective warrior mentality doesn’t really help put Jon at ease.
