- Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2020Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseI cannot begin to say enough good things about this book. I sat down to read one chapter and ended up binge reading the entire book! Filled with excitement from the very beginning! Amazing world building and even better writing! I was quickly drawn into the futuristic dystopian world where nothing is as it seems. I instantly fell in love with all the characters, but Alana... incredible! Such amazing character development, and her character was extremely relatable to me! I wish I could go back and read it for the first time all over again. The ending had me begging for more and am excited that it is part of a trilogy!!!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2019Format: KindleVerified PurchaseObjectively, I thought the author did really well weaving the main storyline and the subplots together, and the mysteries were unveiled at a rate that kept me interested from start to finish. I was able to predict some of the twists, but some really surprised me. There were a few errors in the text and formatting, and at times the narrative felt a little choppy due to word choice or minor continuity issues, but they were few enough that the book felt polished overall, and they didn't get in the way of the immersive nature of the story. The characters were relatable, and I liked how many of them there were! I always always appreciate a full, diverse cast.
Now for some subjective opinions that didn't effect my rating but might be helpful for potential readers. The Mirror Souls read very much like a typical YA dystopian novel. The concept and setting were unique enough that, if you've read The Hunger Games, Divergent, Maze Runner, etc, it's not going to feel like just reading the same thing all over again, even if the underlying themes are very similar. Something I really liked about this dystopian world in particular is that, even though it is post-the fall of humanity, the world isn't totally wrecked - not all of it anyway. It takes place after the different races have been able to restore the planet a little bit, and a lot of the regions have trees and brooks and things of that nature. I thought that made for a more pleasant setting than a lot of the overly technological or wasteland-like settings found in a lot of similar books.
I've developed sort of a peeve towards characters that develop huge amounts of bitterness towards someone close to them suddenly when the find out they've been wronged, or characters that take a long time to catch on to the vision of a movement because they're so concerned about themselves. Overall, I liked Katniss in The Hunger Games, but those are two things that really bothered me about her throughout the course of the series. Same for Alana, the main character in The Mirror Souls. These are totally understandable reactions to extreme circumstances, and I don't think it makes the characters any less real, I just have a hard time admiring characters who seem less open-minded or selfless than I would have if they had been more mindful of other people. Again, I recognize this as a personal preference because the extreme emotions do make for a more dramatic story that a lot of other people prefer, and this opinion didn't effect my rating or my overall opinion of the book.
I definitely plan to read the rest of the series and am glad I discovered it!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2020Format: KindleVerified PurchaseIntriguing characters, fascinating technology, and a cliffhanger ending pulled me in and kept me hooked. Sci-fi and sci-fantasy and YA romance blend together to create a story that has something for everyone. The world-building was handled subtly but with enough detail to make our future earth easy to visualize. As for the unique premise, a broken world that can possibly be healed by love is a beautiful concept. I can't wait to see where the series takes us.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2021Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseJulia Scott has proven herself to be quite the authoress in her first novel of an exciting trilogy; it's hard to believe this is her debut. I was sucked in right away, into the dystopian world and characters' journeys and struggles. There are several familiar tropes at play here, and for someone who loves this genre, I couldn't be happier about that. No spoilers, but one of those tropes is a love triangle. This is pure, butterfly-inducing teenage romance, with enough cool sci-fi stuff if that's your thing (aliens!). There's also plenty of descriptive detail, but not so much that it bogs the story down. I flew through these pages and cannot wait to devour the next installment.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2019Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI rarely give 5 stars and only do so when I have an excellent experience. Mirror Souls was a well-executed, unique premise and I enjoyed it. This YA, fantasy is perfect for young teens through adults. Julia's writing style is very easy to follow and get absorbed in. Side note, ummm, can we say "hello, Aiden"?!
Speaking Julia's character, I follow her on IG and I love that she takes the time to engage with her readers and fellow aspiring authors like me. She always offers a positive word. She has proven to me in her writing and her character that she is an author I will eagerly be waiting on for future stories.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2020Format: KindleVerified PurchaseMIRROR SOULS was a non-stop race for the poor MC who never got a chance to take a breath! The author offers a new take on the concept of 'soulmates' amidst bigger issues. I kinda hate the whole soulmate silliness, but this one presents it in such a way that makes it lovely and new. Despite being MIRROR SOULS, I liked that they weren't completely mushy, that Alana and Aiden fought and kept boundaries and were mindful of their newness while wanting to explore exactly what this bond meant and entailed. There is a lot going on beneath the surface of what initially feels like a small environment, that twists into something infinitely larger at the end! I think the depth of the plot will show even more in the second book. I also liked the post-apocolyptic vision, and as much as I usually avoid aliens in stories, their inclusion was perfect.

5.0 out of 5 stars A big thing in the making!!
Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseI really enjoyed reading this book. It reminded me a little of Divergent to begin with but with more romance and mystery. I liked how the characters developed and it felt like you were moving along with Alana’s journey every step of the way. It was very easy to feel what she was feeling and ask the same questions she was asking. Julia Scott certainly has a way of closing each chapter with a cliffhanger so you want to keep reading to find out what happens! I thought I was being clever at trying to predict/figure out certain characters and things along the way but I was so wrong! There were things that took me by surprise and definitely kept me wanting to know more. From the very beginning to the end I envisaged this book becoming a hit movie saga or TV series in the future! Take me to the Nordly’s! Take me to the stars! Just take me away lol. I cannot wait for the second instalment to come through my letterbox!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great YA fiction
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseMirror Souls is a great take on the Dystopian post-apocalyptic idea, based on the very real trajectory of us destroying the planet. I enjoyed how Scott doesn’t give too much away, teasing out details of the world she has created and the story arc so that at the end I had more questions than answers – leaving me eagerly awaiting the next instalment!

5.0 out of 5 stars Just...perfect!
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThis book was a pure joy to read! I pretty much inhaled it in a 48 hour period (which says a lot seeing as I have a 3 year old who barely leaves me alone for two seconds lol). Alana is a character you route for. She is blunt and strong but also vulnerable and real. She's not just a cookie cutter character who goes through the motions but a character who manages to cling to who she is despite all that she's thrown into and discovers throughout the book. I loved that there was more than one place in this book where I was taken by surprise and literally said "are you kidding me!" Nothing was as it seems which made for a fun and exciting ride. The romance was sweet and fun and while it played a major role there is a lot more at play than a simple love story...and while I loved the main love interest I kind ship Alana with a different guy. You'll see ;). Julia Scott has weaved a story that is...well just perfect! I loved it! And the fact that this was a debut novel speaks volumes! This author is a talent to keep an eye on. She's gonna go places! Can't wait for book two and to get me some more Dray ;).

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy and enjoyable read
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseNot my usual cuppa, however, the strong premise and interesting set of characters pulled me through (and quickly)! If this is your kind of book, you won't be disappointed.
