Will anyone truly get out alive?
It’s been a long time since I’ve been completely blown away by a story, but this book did just that!
Numbered Days has all of the components that make up a five-star read: a unique and intriguing plot, engaging characters, and a hell of a twist! I became emotionally invested in this story, especially knowing that Kace and Ahava’s time together was limited, but it was the overall world that these authors created and everything it encompassed that I fell deeply in love with.
I cannot recommend this book enough, and I’m already looking forward to the next installment of the Lexenos Saga!
Coming from only reading Mystery/Thriller novels, this book shocked me with how good it was. A true page turner of wondering what's going to happen next, while still enjoying the characters growth.
If you're looking for a book that keeps you on your toes, infuriates you and leaves you wanting more - this is the book you'll want to read!
This was a very good book, first of a series. A romance set in future times. My only issue is I was left with a cliff hanger and now must wait to read the Ahava and Kace continued love story. Apparently this book is two authors. The character development was wonderful. I really became invested in everyone, including the secondary characters. Now I have to find out when the next book comes out.
Wow, this book is REALLY good. I'd give it 4.5 if I could, for the last 20% of the book was amazing. This story has everything a good dystopian needs-- great allies, great enemies, a tense love story, an unfair society. It is so, so good.
The only reason I won't give it 5 stars, is there are huge patches of context missing, like the author was trying to rush through parts of the storyline, instead of fully explaining. I really wish that weren't the case. But otherwise, incredibly good.
This is not my normal genre of reading, but I wanted something different this time. My only disappointment is that the book ended. Every time I thought I knew what was coming, the story twisted. I loved it from the beginning to the end. You will feel every emotion while wanting more! I can't wait until the second story comes out!
This book had me in its grasp from start to finish. I read it in 12 hours. I felt like I couldn’t put it down. In this amazing book, you will find the story of lovers meant for anyone but each other. The friendships and connections that form around them. The desolate environment they’ve grown in. Betrayal. Family. Honestly couldn’t recommend it more. I absolutely cannot wait for the next part!
I was hesitant as dystopia is not my typical genre, but I gave it a go, and I'm so glad I did! I loved watching the characters grow and change into the forces they became with every plot twist and turn of events. This book was an easy read and had me on the edge nonstop, not wanting to put it down. If there was ever an ending that made you wanting and needing more... this is it 🤌
This book leaves you on the edge of your seat the entire time! You constantly think and feel different ways about the characters as you learn more about them. It’s got a great mixture of romance, mystery, adventure, and thrill!
Such a wonderful book! Great story line and such wonderful detail. I could see the movie playing in my head the entire time! After chapter 18, get ready lol it goes south for everyone but still, very captivating!
Absolutely loved it, absolutely recommend it. From the first page I was hooked. A shocking world and I couldn't put it down. Crazy rules, unique characters, had me in a trance, can't wait to continue the story.
