I enjoyed this look at the different backgrounds and methods of several protestors of the Mountain Valley Pipeline. Through their stories, you are shown a number of ways small acts of resistance can make a difference against seemingly insurmountable odds. Even if the end result is not what you desire, you don’t give up hope. You transfer it and find new ways to act, rebel and persist.

I've been a fan of Linda's since her recapping days on TWoP and eagerly read her first two novels. I loved Evvie Drake and didn't love Flying Solo so I tried to start Back After This with an open mind.
I'm happy to say that BAT falls in the love category for me. Although the direction of the book was clear fairly early on, Linda did the story justice by having it take appropriate twists and turns to make the ending more satisfying.
Also, I need a Great Dane in my life.

If you thought Lone Wolf was emotional, strap in for Nemesis.
Nemesis is a continuation of Lone Wolf. The two books act as almost a stand alone duology within the Orphan X series. Evan's reluctant embrace of humanity, both its good and bad sides, is continued and heightened here. You also get a greater insight into the few people he has allowed to get close to him: Tommy and Joey.
Evan is pushed into the closest thing to a real world 2025 situation that he's faced. A mission with more layers, personalities, histories and emotions than he's ever had to deal with before.
I don't know when or how the Orphan X series will end but seeing Evan come back around to being fully human since Jack plucked him from the group home was as beautiful to see as it was painful for him to realize.
I remain eternally grateful to have received another ARC of my favorite thriller series. Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martins/Minotaur for the opportunity to read and review.

This is my favorite installment to date in the Huda F series. Huda’s emotional growth takes a massive leap in this installment, as a result of both age and circumstance. No matter what age you are, your parents divorcing affects you. Add this to all the normal teenage woes and the added pressures of being a Muslim female and you’ve got one heck of a stressful situation. Everyone in the book learns the valuable lesson of stepping back to gain perspective when nothing seems to go your way.
This will definitely be on my list of graphic novels to recommend this year!
