~This is an in-universe piece of fiction for the Aspects series - a new YA sci-fi series - though all of the books featured are real and you can check them out by clicking on the book covers~
It's back to school time once more, which means it's time for our annual Aspects Reading List interviews.
The Aspects protect us from the monsters that roam the wastelands outside our cities but we rarely get the opportunity to get to know the mask-wearing heroes. We sat down with some of the Aspects from Tower 5 to get to know them through their favourite books. Today's Aspect is the Aspect of Pain.
I: So, last year you only brought one book and said that you weren't much of a reader. Given the spirit of these interviews, I hope you've brought more for us this time,
P: I have.
I: Great!
P: I brought two.
I: You know, maybe we should just get on with the recommendations...
Legacy (The Biodome Chronicles #1)
P: I liked this book. You should read it.
I: You know that you're supposed to say more about it, right?
P: It's set in the future. I enjoyed reading about the characters. The worldbuilding was interesting.
I: Really? That's it?
P: I liked the relationship between Oaklee and Fillion through most of the book, but would not want to comment further in case I spoil the ending. That was the one bit I didn't like. I don't like complicated endings, even if there is another book in the series. I'm not much of a reader, after all...
What Lies Inside (Blood Bound Series #1)
P: I also liked this one.
I: Okay, seriously, is this going to happen every year?
P: This one is about werewolves and vampires and forbidden love. I really liked the relationships between the characters. To elaborate on why I liked them would spoil the book, but I will say that I liked how close Amelia was with her best friend, even if there were complicated feelings there. I'm glad that they were still there for each other. This one also had a slightly complicated ending... Maybe I need to stop taking book recommendations from Em when they're the first book in a series...
Join us again next week when we talk to the Aspects of Justice and Vengeance about their favourite books.
