Disclaimer: I received this book from Rockstar Book Tours. Thanks! All opinions are my own. Book Series: The Alien Chronicles Book 2 Rating: 3/5 Diversity: Aliens! Publication Date: December 21, 2017 Genre: YA Fantasy Recommended Age: 15+ (love, aliens, and romance) Publisher: Bennett Lane Press Pages: 292 Amazon Link Synopsis: Rion has a secret that only Zoe knows. If only she could remember. But he won't tell her because, well…who wants to be with a 4000 year old alien? Even if he does look seventeen. When his totally unsuitable guardian, Archimedes, forces him to return to East Valley High, he can't help but hope the bond between them is still there. Will Zoe learn to like the human he has become? Yet nothing goes the way he hopes, especially when Harry Crosby turns up and starts turning heads. Maybe even Zoe's? And then there's Jas, who makes it clear she still likes Rion and will stop at nothing to convince him they belong together. As if. Rion's heart still belongs to the one person who seems to have forgotten the connection they once shared. High school, relationships, and dealing with embarrassing 'Uncle' Archimedes cause him more problems than working out what's at the bottom of a black hole. Who knew that being human would be so hard? Review: I felt like while the book still had its witty banter and the characters are still as engaging as they are in the last book. The book is still fast paced, so this will be a quick read! However, I felt like the comments about appearance were worse in this book. It’s like the majority of the book is focused on it. The book is also predictable. Verdict: Alien romance!
