Review Thursday: Numbers Ignite by Rebecca Rode

Amazon  Goodreads

Numbers Game #2

Goodreads Blurb:

"Treena and Vance think they’ve escaped the numbers game forever. They’re wrong.

After Treena’s disastrous attempt to unite the nation, she has the deaths of hundreds haunting her dreams. Now, with hatred and accusations following her past the border, she’s determined to leave that horrible day behind and find a peaceful, uneventful life with Vance and the settlers. But when she starts seeing mysterious figures hiding in the abandoned cities at night and uncovers a strange desert population, she realizes there’s a danger much greater than NORA to worry about—and she just abandoned her people to their fate.

Vance is a prisoner. Being rejected by the girl he loves and put on trial for betraying his clan are bad enough, but now he’s been framed for a crime he never committed. Their less-than-perfect refuge has become the political game of a madman, and Vance is the only one who can stop it—if he can keep from being executed first.

Treena and Vance are still very much in the game, and this time it will take everything they have to save those they love."

I've figured out the coding issues!  Cue the momentous applause!  I do now have to contend with 15 extra hours added onto my already full work schedule, though, so I'll be a little late for the next week or two before everything gets back to normal.  I'm trying to be a little more proactive about scheduling posts and paying attention to review deadlines.

Review Wednesday: The Departed by Chase McCown

Standalone to date

Goodreads Blurb:

"The United States is under siege!
A devastating new bacterial disease sweeps across the states on the west coast and saps its victims of their own free will. Four strangers must work together to survive a mad dash across the United States to find safety in the nation’s capital. The outbreak chases them from their homes on the west coast, and they struggle to reach the capital before the disease does. When they arrive, danger rears its ugly head again, and the four must race against time to save not only themselves, but the entire country from destruction. The Departed is a story filled with the unlikeliest of heroes, who must find hope even when things look hopeless."

Mehhhhhhh.  Okay so remember the frustration from last week?  That frustration is still very present.  I don't know what is up with Blogger but it's been getting worse and I'm having serious thoughts about switching to Wordpress.  I'll probably stick it out for now because I'm super busy working and trying to get everything set for next school year and I'm also ridiculously behind on R&R's and reading in general.  So.  I've also been in a huge reading and blogging slump recently and have the desire to do nothing but work and watch Netflix.  So there are many emails.  Never fear!  I shall defeat this!
