Overgrowth by Mira Grant is a fantastically horror story about an alien invasion that was unputdownable. With a count down to invasion day, we follow Anastasia Miller, who from the age of three has told everyone she meets she is an alien. Creeptastic and brilliant.

The Infinite Sea by Rick Yancey
Fifth Wave by Rick Yancey made my top ten list in 2013, so I was eager to begin The Infinite Sea, the second book in the trilogy. Aliens, human survival and a small group of characters told in multiple perspectives delivers us back into this war torn world. While I think the book suffered middle book syndrome I closed the book impressed by Yancey and the world that holds me captive.
The Taking by Kimberly Derting
I was excited by the premise for The Taking the first book in a new trilogy by Kimberly Derting. I am a science fiction geek at heart and love the concept of aliens. The Taking ended up being a book that left me feeling conflicted. It was an easy read and aspects delighted me but an equal number had me rolling my eyes and skimming.
Alienated by Melissa Landers
Alienated is the first novel in author Melissa Lander’s Alienated trilogy. I was drawn to the beautiful cover and concept of aliens. It delivered a light entertaining romance with the potential for greatness. Mini review: Fast past with interesting concepts and a solid start to the trilogy.
