Insurgent by Veronica Roth

Insurgent, by Veronica Roth, is the second novel in a trilogy that had me rebelling from my traditional reading routine.  I felt inspired by Tris to go with my instincts and took my time to soak up this story.  Divergent, the first book in the series, is a fast paced, peculiar adventure that follows a sixteen year old girl that is warring with her past, present, and future.  Throughout Divergent I felt a constant tug that there was more going on with some of the minor characters, and we get …

The Girl in the Clockwork Collar by Kady Cross

Kady Cross’s second book in The Steampunk Chronicles is The Girl in the Clockwork Collar.  Finley Jayne and the gang are off to save Jasper in New York City.  I was so excited to get more story from Finely, Griffin, and Emily, and was surprised to love Jasper’s backstory!  Action, adventure, super-pow-wahs, angsty-love, cravats, and corsets… I mean collars!  Who could ask for more?  Right?
If it’s possible Kady Cross has written an even better novel than her first (The Girl in the Steel Corset)!  There is more action, more adventure, …
