    This is the first book I have read from this author, and I don’t regret it. If you like the hunger games, you probably would like this. If you’ve ever read the divergent series, it is kind of like that. Spoiler alert!!! I can’t believe that Megan was an epic! It was one of the biggest moments in this book that I will remember!

    Steelheart is AMAZING. After seeing some of the other reviews, I decided to add my own two cents. The plot is PHENOMENAL and the characters are FLESHED OUT. This is a sparking great book. Slontzes.
  • Must Read!

    I grabbed this book from my sisters husband and I thought I grabbed The Maze runner series from their house. I was wrong (and I live half the USA away), best mistake EVER because now I have all 3 books! It’s such an epic read.

    I purchased and read this entire book because my best friend told me it was excellent and he really enjoyed it. Because he’s my best friend, I took him at his word, and despite the slow laborious process of finishing this book, I believed the whole time that it would eventually get better. It did not. That’s worth stating twice. It did not. This book reads like it was written by a junior high student. I was so disappointed when the book continued to disappoint throughout. I would only recommend this book to those who are under the age of 12. If you are an adult considering this book, I highly recommend that you choose something else.

    I am extremely picky about what I read, and I read this book in less than a week. It’s an awesome read! So much excitement, and it seems as if the suspense never ends. Mild short breathers of some drama, but just wow! Incredibly impressed. I can’t wait to read the rest in the series! 15/10 recommend! (yes you read that correctly hahaha)

    I really enjoyed this book. It had lots of good plot twists and some beautifully written action scenes. If you enjoyed this I recommend Renegades which is quite similar to Steelheart. You could almost imagine them happening in the same world and place...
