Sixteen year old, Miranda Mays, discovers she is a superior donor for the alien race known as the Eslites, who have come to earth demanding humans to help save their race from extinction. Will she be the one to help them or will their quest continue?
This is a great short story. My only problem with it was that it wasn't long enough. If this was fleshed out a bit more, with some back story added this could be a great novel.

Element, part 1
Book Synopsis.
College freshman, Natalie Vega, offers to be a test patient for several vitamins and supplements created by Kronberg Laboratories, a large pharmaceutical company where she interns. Immediately her body starts going through physical changes but when she runs into her former high school crush, Ryan Garrett, she is unaware of the life altering affects he will have on her.
My review.
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book starts out slowly, introducing you to the characters and the world they live in. I don't remember there being a specific date in question, but whilst reading you get the impression it's a little way in the future with the world suffering heavily at the hands of Global Warming.
Natalie, our heroine, is a likeable character. Her friend Lise, not so much, she grated on me and I sometimes wondered why someone as nice as Natalie would be friends with someone like Lise. Her budding relationship with Ryan is both sweet and fiery. Their chemistry is amazing, and I have a sneaky suspicion that may be related to the vitamins and supplements Natalie is testing for Kronberg laboratories, though I have no proof so don't hold me to it.
This is a really enjoyable story and I honestly can't wait until the 2nd part is released.

not being funny this is going to sound weird but i wrote a story just like the eslite called the elites and its about an alien race who.are dying and becoming extinct.
ReplyDeleteI said the same thing about the Eslites! It was great just needed so much more! I cant wait until its made into a novel!!!
ReplyDeleteIt was great, my review for it was seriously lacking, every time I tried to write something it was a spoiler lol. I really hope it does become a full novel because i will love it.
