When love is the ultimate weapon, one girl's heart holds the power to save or destroy everything…

In a world controlled by a powerful alien race, the Avalon, 17-year-old Alana Cain's life takes a shocking turn when she discovers she is part of an ancient group known as the Mirror Souls, individuals whose fates are intertwined with their soulmates. Torn from her family and paired with the enigmatic Aiden Merrick, Alana must learn to wield abilities that could shift the balance of power on Earth.

As Alana and Aiden fight to master their energies and uncover the truth behind the Mirror Souls, they find themselves at the heart of a secret rebellion that will launch them on a pulse-pounding journey through the Avalon-controlled Regions of Earth.

Fantastic debut novel
4 out of 5 stars
Fantastic debut novel
I don’t usually read sci-fi so I wasn’t sure if I would enjoy this book, however I loved it. It had more of a young adult fantasy feel to it, which is my favourite genre, and so I ended up reading the whole book in one afternoon. It was an interesting premise, with likeable characters and was a fast paced read. I would have liked a bit more time spent on the world building and character relationships, particularly the growing feelings between Alana and Aiden. However, I really enjoyed it and thought it was a fantastic debut novel. I will definitely be reading book 2 of this series when it is released. Thank you to Love Books Tours and Evenstar Books for my gifted copy.

    I 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!

    Julia Scott wants to 'teleport you to new worlds' and she does just that. This is her first published work and I will be reading more. I did enjoy the story and I found it very easy to get into as a story, which can sometimes, be hard for a Sci-Fi/ Fantasy book.

    Alana is the main character and there are things about her life that don't fit and things that she (and others) want to change.

    There are a few story twists throughout and the story is easy to follow.

    I liked how the book ends and I want to read book two.

    Overall: an excellent read

    I absolutely loved this book. It is one of those stories that has you reading it, thinking about it when you're not reading it and just completely hard to forget.

    I love Julia's writing style, there's a great distinction of character voice. I am excited to read the next!

    Many years ago humanity was on the brink of collapse. It was saved only by the arrival of the Avalon, an alien race that now governs mankind for its own good. But if the Avalon are the heroes of this story, why do people have to live by such strict rules, why are they 'processed' when they break those rules, and why do 'mirror souls' go missing with such frequency?

    Mirror Souls is a YA dystopian fantasy novel with great characters and a fast paced story. I thoroughly enjoyed it, so much so that I bought the other two in the series as soon as I'd finished it. In fact, my only fault with Mirror Souls is that it is book one of a series and it ends on a cliffhanger. I don't mind a series when each book concludes but this is essentially a single story split across three books.

    The Mirror Souls had me hooked from the start. Action from start to finish, Alana barely comes up for a breath after her life is turned upside down and she goes in search of her mirror soul, Aiden. Their journey spans Gaian regions, a flight to The Poisoned Apple (New York), and teleportation into and out of tricky situations.
    Julia Scott's dystopian world is fascinating, with a generous helping of cruel overlords, plotting rebels, and two men competing for Alana's affection. The story moves at just the right pace with a strong plot and cast of characters which keep you on your toes. Space ships, travel devices, violet eyes, dome houses - what more can I say!
    I loved The Mirror Souls and cannot wait for the sequel. So many questions need answers Julia Scott!

    With The Mirror Souls Julia Scott brings a new twist to YA dystopia. If you’re a fan of Divergent/Hunger Games style books, then this one is for you.

    This fast-paced adventure with plenty of twists and turns, great characters and an interesting set up is a terrific opening to what promises to be an engaging and highly entertaining series. I’ve already scooped up the second book, The Anahata Divide, and can’t wait to find out what happens to Alana, Aiden and the rest.

    This fast-paced and intense read is set in a future where the Earth has been taken over by an alien race that subjugates and controls humanity, for our own good. Alana has always felt like she didn’t fit in, but little did she know, she is a mythical mirror soul. Once she discovers Aiden, her mirror soul, Alana is in danger.

    For fans of YA dystopia, this is book one in a trilogy. A chilling account of life under alien control, it is also a mirror held before many societies on Earth today where control is exerted over the people, information is filtered to hide the truth, and people who cause ripples are made to disappear.

    For Alana, her life depends on knowing whom to trust. As she gradually discovers the truth about her past and fights past the lies, she realises she is more important than she could ever have imagined.

    Mirror 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!

    I 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!!!

    This 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 ;).

    4.0 out of 5 stars A truly enjoyable read!
    Reviewed in the United States on 20 April 2019
    Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase
    Objectively, 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!
