Alienated by Melissa Landers


I really enjoyed this book. It was a lot of fun, there was humor, adventure and the perfect amount of romance. Seriously if you haven’t read this yet, go pick it up, now! It’s a one sit down read. PLUS Jennifer L. Armentrout is the blurb. Guys you have to read this if you’re a JL Armentrout fan. So there was a fair amount of drama in this book, which I quite enjoyed and the chemistry between Aelyx and Cara was spot on. I’m giving this book a 7.8/10, I really enjoyed it and highly recommend it to you. I apologize for this review’s shortness, I have had a crap load of studying to do this week, but my next review should be pretty long its on Blood of Olympus which I finished earlier today. Then I hope my review on The Young Elites will be nice and long but before I read The Young elites I plan on reading The Distance Between Us so I don’t stay caught on a certain Perseus Jackson. Also I apologize for saying defiantly instead of definitely a lot, spell check always says “Oh! I’m stupid so use defiantly!” Ugh. -_-
Back to this story it has a very interesting concept that when you hear about it, it just sounds weird but once you start reading, you’ll get sucked in. This book is dual POV coming from Aelyx and Cara. Cara is a normal, human while Aelyx is a L’eihr (Is that how you spell it?) There’s an exchange student program between L’eihr and Earth so Aelyx comes to stay with Cara and pretty soon their lives getting pretty screwed up. 
Here’s the synopsis: 
Two years ago, the aliens made contact. Now Cara Sweeney is going to be sharing a bathroom with one of them.  

Handpicked to host the first-ever L’eihr exchange student, Cara thinks her future is set. Not only does she get a free ride to her dream college, she’ll have inside information about the mysterious L’eihrs that every journalist would kill for. Cara’s blog following is about to skyrocket.

Still, Cara isn’t sure what to think when she meets Aelyx. Humans and L’eihrs have nearly identical DNA, but cold, infuriatingly brilliant Aelyx couldn’t seem more alien. She’s certain about one thing, though: no human boy is this good-looking.

But when Cara’s classmates get swept up by anti-L’eihr paranoia, Midtown High School suddenly isn’t safe anymore. Threatening notes appear in Cara’s locker, and a police officer has to escort her and Aelyx to class. 

Cara finds support in the last person she expected. She realizes that Aelyx isn’t just her only friend; she’s fallen hard for him. But Aelyx has been hiding the truth about the purpose of his exchange, and its potentially deadly consequences. Soon Cara will be in for the fight of her life—not just for herself and the boy she loves, but for the future of her planet.



I’ll definitely be ordering the next book in my next book shipment :D. I seriously advise you to read this book, especially if you enjoy sci fi novels, this is the perfect pick for you. 
xoxo
