Waverly, Kieran and Seth are in a race against time – and with the future of humanity hanging in the balance, there’s no room for mistakes…
After a desperate escape from the enemy ship, Waverly has finally made it back to the Empyrean. The memory of home has been keeping her alive for the past months… but home is nothing like she left it. Forced to leave their captive parents behind on the New Horizon, she’s returned only to find that Kieran has become a strict leader and turned the crew against Seth. What happened to the Kieran she thought she knew? Now Waverly’s not sure whom she can trust. And the one person she wants to believe in is darkly brilliant Seth, the ship’s supposed enemy. Waverly knows that the situation will only get worse until they can rescue their parents – but how?
Before they have time to make a plan, an explosion rocks the Empyrean, and Seth and Waverly are targeted as the prime suspects. Can they find the true culprit before Kieran locks them away… or worse? Will Waverly follow her heart, even if it puts lives at risk? Now more than ever, every step could bring them closer to a new beginning – or a sudden end.

Why Jessica wants to read this: I really enjoyed the first book, the more I thought about it, the more I liked it. It even had me yelling at the characters. Check out my review of book 1, Glow.

I'll be honest...it was a chore for me to finish the first book in this series, so I'm not very excited about Spark, but a GR friend felt the same and read the 2nd and said it is a bit of an improvement, so I might still give this one a chance.
ReplyDeleteHere's my WoW post. Happy Wednesday! :D
I have not heard of this series but it sounds pretty interesting.
ReplyDeleteThis book looks good, have to read the first still though.

I haven't read GLOW yet, but didn't realize it was a series. I'll have to get on that. Especially if you're looking forward to the sequel! Great pick!

I have Glow but I haven't read it yet. Someday I will catch up on every book I own (ok - not really but it's a goal lol)
ReplyDeleteSpark sounds good though.
I think Glow is on sale right now on Amazon, getting ready for Spark to come out ($2.99 isn't bad). A five star for Glow! I bet you're antsy waiting on this one!! Great pick!!

I listened to the first book on audio. I really enjoyed it but near the end it became especially political and controversial. I can't wait to see where the author goes with this. Nice pick for WOW.
