Atlantia was a very different story. I have not read anything like it and it was very refreshing. The relationship of focus is between two sisters and overall family. In most books that are sci-fi or fantasy the main character does not have family or does not contact them. I really enjoyed the writing style and new ideas. Ally Condie seamlessly weaved a little bit of romance, family dedication, Atlantis, sirens, and stopping someone from destroying everything together in this book. It was a standalone novel that left you wanting more but content at the same time.
If you like any ya books you should like this one.
I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.

Rebel Belle by Rachel Hawkins
No Spoilers-
Rebel Belle was unexpectedly delightful! I picked up this book simply because of how gorgeous the cover was and I am so glad that I did. It starts out with the line "Looking back, none of this would have happened if I'd brought lip gloss the night of the Homecoming Dance". That alone should tell you how funny the book will be. While it was serious and there was some major action the humor was amazing! The writing style was unique as well as the story. It was a very easy read yet still intellectual. I have read a lot of books and this one was very enjoyable with plot twists I did not see coming. I would recommend this book to anybody but I think it would be more enjoyable for females because of the point of view of the main character.
You will like this book if you liked any of the following: Uninvited by Sophie Jordan, The Iron Fey series by Julie Kagawa, Tigers Curse by Colleen Houck, or Switched by Amanda Hocking
