Significance Review

4/5 ☆☆☆☆

Maggie is a normal seventeen year old girl who has just graduated from high school. She thinks of her self as average and feels like she's been abandoned by everyone who should care about her. Her mother walked out on both her and her father claiming that they were unappreciative and did not love her enough - I know what a major B*otch. Her father has pretty much lived his life on autopilot ever since his wife left him and has been too depressed to be a father to Maggie and if that is not sad enough the last member of her family, her brother Bish, has moved to New York leaving her practically an orphan.

Oh and yes lets add more problems to Maggie's life by having her boyfriend breakup with her when she needed him the most. 

The closest thing to a family Maggie has is her obnoxious best friend Becca and Kyle her childhood friend, who has had a crush on her since FOREVER! and the lovely group of people she works with at a local diner.

But things change for Maggie when she decides to cave and accepts Kyle's billionth request for a date. That is when she meets Kyle's cousin, Caleb. She is drawn to Caleb and soon finds out that he is her soul mate. No really! Her actual soul mate. 

Maggie and Caleb imprint on each other.

For the Aces (a race of supernatural beings that has been hidden from humans for centuries) this is a miracle. Imprinting is returning to their race helping them to not only find their soul mates but also saving them from extinction.Now you would think that Aces all around the world would be ecstatic about this kind of news but that is not the case. 

The Watson's, a rival clan of the Jacobson's, are furious and filled with jealousy because they were not chosen to be the first to imprint. Adding insult to injury, not only did a member of their rival clan imprint before them but it was done with a human, Maggie, something the Watson's find disgusting.

The Watson's have always envied the Jacobson clan and thought themselves superior over everyone, especially humans, so when Maggie and Caleb imprinted on each other, when none else has in years, well that was the last straw for them.

Although it is against Ace laws to harm another clan they set out to separate Maggie and Caleb before they can ascend ((OH NO! if you think I am going to tell you what that means you are so out of luck. :) It is way to awesome to explain. You better go read the book!)) and possibly kill her

Will Maggie and Caleb survive the physical torture and withdrawal from being away from their soul mate for such a long period? ((oh yea. Being away from your soul mate for a long period of time -even over night - can cause withdrawal making your body feel as if you've been hit by an 18-wheeler and dragged ten blocks.))

Or will the Watson's finally get what they have been craving for for years? 

The destruction of the Jacobson clan.

PODs Review

3/5 ☆☆☆

                                                        

ORIGINAL SYNOPSIS

Seventeen-year-old Eva is a chosen one. Chosen to live, while others meet a swift and painful death from an incurable virus so lethal, a person is dead within days of symptoms emerging. In the POD system, a series of underground habitats built by the government, she waits with the other chosen for the deadly virus to claim those above. Separated from family and friends, it's in the PODs she meets David. And while true love might not conquer all, it's a balm for the broken soul. 

After a year, scientists believe the population has died, and without living hosts, so has the virus. That's the theory, anyway. But when the PODs are opened, survivors find the surface holds a vicious secret. The virus mutated, infecting those left top-side and creating... monsters. 

Eva and David hide from the infected in the abandoned PODs. Together they try to build a life--a new beginning. But the infected follow and are relentless in their attacks. Leaving Eva and David to fight for survival, and pray for a cure.

NAT'S REVIEW

Usually I like my Zombie apocaplyse novels to have a bit more ... Oh I don't know … Zombies in it! But this was still a good read. The story had a pretty interesting start but by the time I got to the middle of the book I was dying for some undead villains to arrive.

The romance between Eva and David was TO-DIE-FOR!

No really! Those two were beyond head over heels for each other. The fight they put up to be together is what kept me going for the first half of the book. Well, that and Eva being a total bad ass!

Go head and tell Eva she doesn't need a weapon in a post zombie apocalyptic world because that is what the men are there for and see if doesn't knock your rotting head of your shoulders with a bat!

Anyway if you need a book to read to pass the time on that long train ride home or something else to do when you should be doing your already late homework assignment you should really give PODs a shot.

XOXOXO

I'm thinking I need to buy some more books.

Even with the one that I have on my nook I feel like this is not

enough!
