Elite Starfighter

“Forget about the war,” Mia insisted. “Tell us about…” your boring alien love interest

Elite Starfighter by Grace Goodwin

CBR13Bingo: Machinery Because Lily smashes stuff in a mecha! Like starbases! And enemy fighters! And freaking spaceships! Look, I know these books are ridiculous, but that’s the joy of them. Plus, I was really looking forward to seeing Lily smash some stuff up with her mecha suit! This is the third book in the series and follows directly after the other two, so it shouldn’t be read as a standalone. With her best friends Jamie and Mia gone, Lily’s ready for her alien partner to show […]

And yes, it’s more of the same, though with hackers instead of fighter pilots. This book picks up directly after the […]

The First Starfighter

Ridiculous but enjoyable

The First Starfighter by Grace Goodwin

September 2, 2021 by llamareadsbooks 1 Comment

My love of scifi romance is well established, so it’s no surprise that my friend picked up something with the most ridiculous premise they could find (“It’s like Ender’s Game but not as genocide-y!”) as a pick-me-up. And while I can’t honestly say it’s a great book, it’s definitely served its purpose for cheering me up. “To you, it was a game. To Velerion, a tool to identify and recruit the best Starfighters we can find.” If the only thing Jamie has going for her […]
