The Beholder by Anna Bright

Me: Never judge a book by its cover!
Me: I totally just did and want it now!

Seriously when I saw this cover, I knew I had to have it! Then I read the blurb and was like, ohhhh I have to have it even more! I mean, The Odyssey meets Cinderella? Heck to the freaking yeah!

Enjoyed the story here! The writing sucked me right in and I couldn't let go. Selah was a great character when it came to speaking up and being strong, doing what she believed in. Loved that! Now, when it came to boys she was a little weak. Boys! Boys! Boys! There were THREE boys she was infatuated in this book. Count them! One! Two! Three! I can't handle it! I will say it wasn't all at one time, though. I will also say that I loved them all, but still wished the book had only had one! But Torden, you are mine! 

There were some very nice twists in here. Two I did not see coming, so dear author, kudos to you! I really liked Selah's crew on the ship and the side characters there were very well developed. Lang and crew were just so awesome! The world building with the pit stops they made on there journey gave me perfect visualization. But with the freaking ending, I can't wait for book two! Need ittttttttttttttttt!
