For Review:

The Concealing (Spirit Warriors #1)

Sixteen-year-old Emme Belrose has it all: four best friends, a horse of her own, a hidden tepee hangout, and a blossoming romance with tall and handsome Charlie. These friends also have a secret. They can move their spirits into animal bodies: an osprey, a mustang, a grizzly, a mountain lion and a coyote. But when Charlie, who has a gift for seeing the future, has a vision of Emme drowning in the icy Yellowstone River, the Spirit Warriors must train their animal bodies to kill an enemy they know is coming… but know nothing about. Suspenseful, romantic, and awash in Native American magic, Spirit Warriors captures the tragic enchantment of the American West—and confirms the power of friendship.

Love this blurb, and I love the idea of each friend being able tot urn into a specific animal. I really hope I like this, because I’m the first stop on the blog tour!

Starglass (Starglass, #1)

Terra has never known anything but life aboard the Asherah, a city-within-a-spaceship that left Earth five hundred years ago in search of refuge. At sixteen, working a job that doesn’t interest her, and living with a grieving father who only notices her when he’s yelling, Terra is sure that there has to be more to life than what she’s got.

But when she inadvertently witnesses the captain’s guard murdering an innocent man, Terra is suddenly thrust into the dark world beneath her ship’s idyllic surface. As she’s drawn into a secret rebellion determined to restore power to the people, Terra discovers that her choices may determine life or death for the people she cares most about. With mere months to go before landing on the long-promised planet, Terra has to make the decision of a lifetime–one that will determine the fate of her people.

Phoebe North used to be quite the prolific reviewer on Goodreads (not sure if she still is) and ran the Intergalactic Academy, a sci-fi book review blog, so I am very interested in seeing her take on sci-fi. One of the things that most interests me is Phoebe’s own Jewish heritage and how it has influenced this book. Also, it was on sale for $1.99. Although I like the paperback cover better:
