First, I want to say that I was never a big fan of Sci-Fi, but when I read Doporto's The Eslites short story I changed my mind. Doporto delivers an action packed/ emotional roller coaster in her latest novel. There were characters that I either loved or truly despised. Everyone who knows me, knows that if you can get a reaction like that out of me, then it's a good read.Miranda is a strong, intelligent character. Her sidekick, Kate, was not as strong as Miranda but did want to help (which made her the perfect companion for Miranda). I liked how the book displayed plausible scenarios if the world were taken over by aliens (but let's hope it doesn't!!). For the most part, I was able to see Miranda's reasoning and would have loved to see more of Bryce. Her dynamics with Dimas were very interesting and am very curious about how the rest of the series will play out. As for her family dynamics, I was saddened that her relationship was strained with her brother and I wanted to strangle her father. He had me questioning whether he was a true jerk or if he was an Eslite himself because he was so cold.I really REALLY enjoyed reading this book and I cannot wait until the next book comes out! If you like action and strong female characters, then you should check it out.
