"And here it is," Kez says. "The moment where love and sweetness turn into war and hatred. The first story every told, and probably the last. They held on to their romantic notions as long as it suited them, and then they reached for weapons." (

Imagine the character wealth of a classic Russian novel, but with markedly varied gender orientations and species. This is the quick description of this third book in the trilogy. The longer version follows the players who evolved from when Tina and Rachel escaped from Earth and found themselves in a galaxy-wide mess that eventually involved black holes hidden in almost every star in the universe. They'd been put there eons ago in what was eventually described as a messy divorce between two alien races that wiped out most of each other.
Now, the good guys/gals/self-described are in a race to stop the Bereavement which will trigger all the black holes to consume their star hosts. Add in a demented set of princesses including Eliza, Tina's lover and the only good princess, Tina having had her body hijacked by another female with evil tendencies, half the galaxy shooting at the other half, coupled with a mega-evil dude whose touch sickens and kills almost immediately, and you have a full time job (fun though) keeping everyone straight in your head. So glad I read all three books. (

This is so good! This whole trilogy has been incredible, and this book really sticks the landing. I love all these characters and how they got to shine with their own unique strengths and weaknesses. And the galaxy is big, and full of different alien cultures and languages and genders! And friendship is important, and so is listening to people who are different from us, and finding creative ways to fight fascism. There are hard choices and big sacrifices but also growth and joy and music and love. And a tactical ballgown! (

For those in need of having the galaxy saved by a transgender princess and her squabbling crew of multi-species companions in a ship called the Undisputed Training Bra Disaster, then this series is for you. I prefer my tales of growth on a much smaller scale and would someday hope that the save wasn't at the last minute and in the teeth of total disaster. Also the cutesy isn't my thing. (

Promises Stronger Than Darkness marks the final installment of the international bestselling author Charlie Jane Anders's absolutely heart-stopping YA series, Unstoppable.
They're the galaxy's most wanted�??and our only hope.
When Elza became a space princess, she thought she'd be spending her time at the palace, wearing gorgeous couture and soaking up everything there is to know�??but instead, she's on the run, with everyone hunting for her and her friends.
Rachael followed her best friend Tina on the adventure of a lifetime�??but now Tina's gone, and Rachael's the only one keeping her friends together, as they go on a desperate quest to save everyone from an ancient curse.
Rachael, Elza and their friends have found one clue, one shining mysterious chance to stop the end of the world. And that takes them back to the second-to-last place they'd want to be: enlisting the aid of Captain Thaoh Argentian, the woman who stole Tina's body (and who now seems to be relishing a second chance at teenage chaos and drama, instead of living up to her legacy of an intrepid heroic commander).
With only a ragtag band of misfits, crewmates, earthlings, friends, lovers (and one annoying frenemy), the Unstoppable Crew are up against the universe�??and they soon find that in order to survive, they may have to cross a line they vowed never to cross.
