Story
I'm not your average girl. My best friend is my switchblade. My favorite hobby is using it on the cruel, the abusive, and anyone who gets on my bad side. I'm a convicted murderer with a chip on my shoulder and a dangerous lack of restraint. And then there's Zak. His rap sheet makes mine look tame. The bounty on his head is worth more money than I'll ever make, and the deadly fae that shadow his every step wield more power than I'll ever know. He's the Crystal Druid, and his first mistake was setting foot on my turf. His second was saving my life.

Bayr of Saylok, bastard son of a powerful and jealous chieftain, is haunted by the curse once leveled by his dying mother.

Raised among the Keepers at Temple Hill, Bayr is gifted with inhuman strength. But he’s also blessed with an all-too-human heart that beats with one purpose: to protect Alba, the first girl child born in nearly two decades and the salvation for a country at risk.

Story
This collection of 25 Hercule Poirot adventures is compiled from short stories written by Agatha Christie for The Sketch magazine in 1923 from March to December. In these stories, including "The Disappearance of Mr. Davenheim", "The Veiled Lady", and "The Adventure of the Egyptian Tomb", the eccentric private detective slowly and surely solves mysteries involving jealousy, revenge, and greed. These stories were well-received at the time and cemented Christie's reputation as the worthy successor to Arthur Conan Doyle.

Publisher's Summary
Living and slaving in Fill City One, you get used to the smell. We call it the Everpresent Stink. But every once in a while, on a spring day with a breeze, it clears away enough to remind us that there is something more out there. Most Fillers' wildest dreams would be just to get past the walls and live in the mainland. But my dream? It’s a little bigger.
I’m going to Mars.
Well, I’m only going to Mars if I can find a winning Red Scarab to get on Zach Larson’s crazy reality show. And then I’ll have to figure out how to escape this hellhole. And then compete on live television for three months. And somehow win a spot on the crew of the very first manned mission to Mars. Oh, and one more slight obstacle? There might be a reason that by 2085 a human still hasn’t set foot on the Red Planet. A dangerous reason. A reason worth killing for.
In You’re Going to Mars! Rob Dircks, Audible best-selling author of Where the Hell Is Tesla?, creates a near-future filled with family (the good kind and the insufferable kind), pop divas, mobsters, and the world’s first trillionaire - and sends them all on a science fiction odyssey/comedy/love story/adventure that will change their world forever.

Part way through this story
I'm really enjoying the story but I really need to pass this along. if you don't want any story info at all, stop reading this now...I'm getting seriously irritated with MC. She's coming across a little too holier than thou and super judgmental with her estranged mother. Yes, her mother left her with her father but she's also the one who helped MC on her way with exactly zero gratitude. Now, she's, despite living in a society that is rigidly controlled, caused an unnecessary problem with a guard at a crosscheck point all because she thinks she's better than her mother. It's like she forgot that she's a fugitive and not exactly law-abiding citizen of the year.
So good story but over the top with the judgment from MC. I can get enough judgment on the internet or from my neighbors, I don't need it in my fiction.
Just a personal pet peeve and don't let it prevent you from missing the story since the hokey title is already a turn-off...and it IS a good book.

Pleasantly surprised
I wasn’t sure what to expect of this book. As far as this genre goes, I tend to drift more towards action adventure sci-fi. However, this book was a nice change of pace. The characters (most of them) are quite believable. Paper... yes, that’s main character’s name... is very enjoyable to watch/hear develop and overcome the obstacles put before her.
Some of the characters feel like they could have been left out as they serve no real purpose. You could easily see the story progress just fine without them.
Khristine Hvam certainly breathes a great deal of life in to the story with her portrayal of Paper and supporting cast. Certainly interested in other works narrated by her now.
Overall I would suggest this book. It’s a nice, light take on a story that has been told similarly before. But certainly enjoyable.

A clever and entertaining SciFi rif on the Charlie and the chocolate factory theme. I enjoyed the narrator as she brought out the depth of emotions in the character and was able to deliver the humor very well.

Another gem by Rob Dircks!
I won't lie-- when I saw that Rob Dircks had released a new novel I scooped it up without even reading the plot. I knew I'd love it as I have his other stories. Rob Dircks has fast become one of my favorite authors with his brilliant mix of sci-fi and comedy.
This book was no exception. The main character was well written and it was very exciting to see a female lead in one of Dirck's works. Paper was so much fun to get to know and I loved going along her journey with her. This book is a fast paced and fun adventure! My one critique was that some of the decisions Paper made were out of character for her intelligence level. She seemed to be a bit oblivious during certain points of the story which did distract me.
****SPOILERS******
I was totally shipping Paper and Aurora!

This book is kind of terrible...
Narrator is poorly matched and the character motivations don't make sense... The main character keeps doing stupid things that are present a clear and present danger to her and others in fits of peak... But she's supposed to be a very smart, mechanical expert... Feels more like a mediocre children's book than anything.
