Young adult Science-Fiction, I'm always down for that! Requested this book quite soon after I discovered it on Netgalley, but due to life getting in the way, reading slumps, etc I then never got around to actually read it up until recently.

I'm happy I finally read it, because this was a great read for me! Much fun! I'm a sucker for SciFi that combines droids and romance. I think the author executed this part very very well. Loved this romance, these characters and their development so much and those elements were foremost what made this book work for me.

But the storyline in general was just really a lot of fun, and I went through it quite fast because it just was so enjoyable! The world was interesting and awesome to explore.

It definitely gets a recommendation from me!

Thank you for the opportunities to read this book. I have attempted it on a number of occasions but unfortunately I haven’t been able to get into it.

I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I enjoyed this book, it was fun and a little different. I feel like I didn’t get enough back story on the state of this future world, but it seems to be an interesting concept (more in book 2?!). The Antarctic setting was unique and the twist at the end was really good, and pretty unexpected.

If I had one complaint, I wasn’t a huge fan of Ionia. Maybe I’m getting old! She came off as kind of bratty rather than rebellious. I mean, she ordered an android behind her mother’s back then tried to hide it. Said android is actually a “companion droid” which is pretty cringey, can’t really blame her mom for having a problem with this! However uncomfortable this concept was at the start, he’s obviously important to the story! (I’d be lying if I wasn’t a bit disappointed with how the epilogue turned out... but again, we’ll see how book two goes!).

In summary, I did enjoy it and do plan to read the next one.

This was an awesome sci-fi book that blends in androids with the desolate landscape of Antarctica. Raging against her scientist mother that doesn't understand her and leaning on the care of her new android boy, Ionia runs to a nearby town to find understanding. What she find in the wake of an attack on her home town is much more important. It is most definitely a teen book, but enjoyable all the same. I look forward to more books from this author.

Frozen Hearts is an intriguing look at a futuristic world from a teenage girls point of view. I thought I'd like it when I read the synopses but I actually enjoyed it so much more than I originally thought. It was interesting to think of where the world could be as far as technological advancements. I thought the use of an AI character was great. I like how you get to see how a human would react to a life-like robot, as well as getting to see things from the bots point of view. The story was relatable in it's family aspect because I'm sure everyone has at some point experienced disagreements with a parent. I really liked this book and I'd like to see more of this world from the author.
