- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Slow to get into but gripping in the end. Must read the second book right away.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Simon & Schuster Canada, the publisher of Zero Repeat Forever, the YA novel by author G.S. Prendergast describes the story as ‘The Fifth Wave meets Beauty and the Beast”. That’s a fair assessment, well, except that it’s sort of the Canadian version which means there’s a whole lot of apologizing in the story and the pace is a bit slower – okay, some stereotypes are true… sorry. But, all joking about Canadian content aside, I wasn’t sure what to expect from Zero Repeat Forever given the publisher’s description. It is fairly long and I did feel that it could have been tightened up a bit especially as Raven and Eighth spend time together while she heals from an attack by another Nahx. Overall, though, I enjoyed the story quite a bit – and that’s mainly down to Eighth who was the only character whether human or alien who seems not to have lost his humanity (can you say an alien displays humanity?). The story does end on a rather large cliffhanger and I am already looking forward to where the story takes us. Thanks to Netgalley and Simon & Schuster Canada for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review

In Calgary?This book was a bit slow for me I had a hard time staying interested.There is Raven and her friends who were at a camp working off their "community service" for some misdeeds Along comes an alien invasion that they have to survive. One alien (8th) is not like the others (he is defective) and does not want to continue with the orders he is given.Raven and 8th meet and 8th feels he must save the human.Thank you to NetGalley for the Ebook to read for an honest review
