Glow(ARC) by Amy Kathleen Ryan


Synopsis: The Empyrean is the only home 15-year-old Waverly has ever known. Part of the first generation to be successfully conceived in deep space, she and her boyfriend Kieran will be pioneers of New Earth. Waverly knows she must marry young in order to have children who can carry on the mission, and Kieran, the handsome captain-to-be, has everything Waverly could want in a husband. Everyone is sure he’s the best choice. Still, there’s a part of Waverly that wants more from life than marriage, and she is secretly intrigued by the shy, darkly brilliant Seth.
Suddenly, Waverly’s dreams are interrupted by the inconceivable – a violent betrayal by the Empyrean's sister ship, the New Horizon. The New Horizon’s leaders are desperate to populate the new planet first, and will do anything to get what they need: young girls. In one pivotal moment, Waverly and Kieran are separated, and find themselves at the helm of dangerous missions, where every move has potentially devastating consequences, and decisions of the heart may lead to disaster.




Review: Glow is amazing! I absolutly loved it. On the back of the ARC it says that it's the most riveting series since The Hunger Games, but some of you will be shocked that I haven't read that series yet. I know jaw dropping moment. But I want to so don't judge me!


Something I noticed is that it seemed like it took ages to read, but then again you are reading through the never ending place we call space!


I think anyone would enjoy this book as much as I did, and if you don't .... well I'm sorry to say your a speck of dust in outer space. Just kidding. How you feel is totally your own opinion! I've heard nothing but great things about this book from many blogs that I read and I see why. I couldn't put it down. Glow is Awe-tab-ulous!


I love the way Amy switched the settings back and forth between parts. Going from the Empyrean to the New Horizon. I think that made everything more fun and added lots of suspense.


My favorite thing about this book is it didn't BORE ME once! I was always intrigued!


Can't WAIT for the next installment!
