From the moment Beryl was abducted and the translator was implanted I was cracking up at Snaps. Snaps (the dog) was pretty funny, too.Īmes: I’m glad I picked this one. It was interesting watching Beryl and Kerr go through the challenges, and I thought Zylar was really sweet.

The whole “Alien Tinder/Mistaken Identity” was silly and pretty over the top.

I’ll be honest, I didn’t care for it at first. She generally writes darker novels, but this was light and campy.

Holly: This was a totally unexpected book from AA. Who knew that she would fall head over heels in love with an alien. Things start heating up the longer Beryl is with Zylar. Zylar was supposed to have picked up his intended but mistakes Beryl for his intended and because they can’t get back to Earth anymore, Beryl has to choose between staying with Zylar in this new place and trying her hand at the Alien Bachelor, which they call The Choosing, or she can go off on her own and try to survive in a strange place, on an even stranger planet. Not only does she understand the aliens but Snaps can talk too! He takes her back to his home, an alien world where her and Snaps are implanted with a device that helps her understand what everyone is saying around her. Beryl was just minding her own business, cleaning up after a Ren Fare festival when a freaking alien abducts her and dog, Snaps. Strange Love features Beryl Bowman, a human from St. Her choice was Strange Love by Ann Aguirre and it was my first alien romance. It was Ames turn to choose our book of the month and she chose something a little different for us to read. Actually, I could have sworn we posted this last month but it’s nowhere to be found so maybe all of this clean air in California has me trippin’ but anyway, here we are again. They agree to join the Choosing together, but love is about to get seriously strange.Īmes, Holly, and I are back with another joint review. Who would have ever thought that working at the Sunshine Angel daycare center would offer such interstellar prestige? She doesn't know what the hell's going on, but a new life awaits on Barath Colony, where she can have any alien bachelor she wants. She should have added a rider about the husband being human. Louis.īeryl Bowman's mother always said she'd never get married. This 'human being' is not the Tiralan match he was looking for. Desperation drives him to try a matching service but due to a freak solar flare and a severely malfunctioning ship AI, things go way off course. If he fails to find a nest guardian this time, he'll lose his chance to have a mate for all time. Zylar of Kith Balak is a four-time loser in the annual Choosing.
