Series: Anastasia Phoenix (Book 1)
Paperback: 400 pages
Publisher: Entangled: Teen (March 7, 2017)

Some secrets are best kept hidden…

Anastasia Phoenix has always been the odd girl out, whether moving from city to international city with her scientist parents or being the black belt who speaks four languages.

And most definitely as the orphan whose sister is missing, presumed dead.

She’s the only one who believes Keira is still alive, and when new evidence surfaces, Anastasia sets out to follow the trail—and lands in the middle of a massive conspiracy. Now she isn’t sure who she can trust. At her side is Marcus, the bad boy with a sexy accent who’s as secretive as she is. He may have followed her to Rome to help, but something about him seems too good to be true.

Nothing is as it appears, and when everything she’s ever known is revealed to be a lie, Anastasia has to believe in one impossibility.

She will find her sister.

This reminded me so much of the Embassy Row books (which is a very good thing since I like Ally Carter very much), very thrilling and mysterious, looking forward to see what Wallach has planned next for Anastasia.

Finally, My Thoughts on Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins Audio So, I was going through my old posts, looking for something to post today, and came across this. I guess I never posted it, because I was just so angry and disappointed. Plus, I think I had talked so much about it, that I was sick of talking about it. And also, I feel like there were so many things that bothered me that I couldn't get it all down. But, I thought it might be fun to post this, and see if anyone is interested in it. So, here are my bitter and resentful thoughts on Mockingjay! :P 8-30-2010 *spoilers galore* After reading Mockingjay all day on Tuesday, I left Wednesday morning to go on vacation for my anniversary. All I could think about was Mockingjay. You might think that's a good sign, like it was so well done that I couldn't forget about it. But, for me, it wasn't. I was so disappointed in this book. Honestly, if I hadn't loved the first two books so much, I pr...
