TITLE: Entangled
Author: Amy Rose Capetta
GENRE: YA, Dystopian, Sci-fi
BRIEF SYNOPSIS: A pair of genetically altered children from a lab on the planet Firstbloom are "Entangled". The lab was raided, the scientists killed, and we begin the book through the eyes of Cadence.
Cadence a.k.a Cade are on a seedy planet where she lives alone in a bunker in the desert and lives for Saturday nights where she headlines at Club V, (a grimey club owned by a multi-limbed alien who doesn't pay & tricks talent into lifetime contracts) playing her only true love "cherry red" and singing to a mixed crowd of aliens, spacesick humans, as well as herself to tune out the white noise that she constantly hears inside her head.
During her set the white noise flickers off,giving solitary Cade a moment's respite from her lonely and painful existence. When Cade's set ends she goes back to her dressing room and is approached by one of the scientists from Firstbloom. Dr. Niven shows Cade part of the experiment. Finding out that she is Entangled to another person (enter Xan) who is the answer to stopping her solitude and painful existence,sends her on a high velocity and dangerous course to retrieving him and possibly saving what is left of the human race as well as maybe herself.

MOUSEHEADANDTALES REVIEW: I gave Entangled by Amy Rose Capetta 4 $$$$, or 4 * * * * !
I really enjoyed this book! There are characters you will love. Descriptions of what might be after we destroy our home planets....Beautifully described feelings that are so intertwined with music and the language music is unto itself was so raw.As a music lover myself I was really able to connect with the way Cadence thought,and the power that music holds.A magic of it's own.
Perfect for anyone who has ever felt alone. People who find it nearly impossible to hope,trust,or dream of a better way.
With a warning that all the "awesome" technology that have given people the opportunity to connect with others,can actually have the opposite effect in the long run.
This was a page turning adventure that I couldn't put down. It left me breathless,scared,happy,and ultimately satisfied with the outcome. I thought there was a great quote that this review would not be complete without...
" What you can do,what you choose to do,and what needs to be done" -Ayumi
Look for Entangled at book stores online or go to goodreads to find release dates and competing vendors.
I'd like to thank the publishers of Entangled for allowing me to review Amy Rose Capetta's novel.
