Featured Official Review: Opaque by Calix Leigh-Reign [February 2020 Book of the Month]

[DrHyde_not_Jekyll]

Oddly enough, while I love the Marvel movies, I would never read a comic book or other book upon which the movies are based. This book seems to me something I might actually read. I am really interested in the fact that "normal" things that teenagers struggle with — love, school, stress, family life — are touched upon in this book along with the fantastical supernatural powers. Thank you for your review, it was very informative!

I've read this book before and I would love to read it again. The thing I liked the most about this book was the writing style. The author has done a great job in writing this novel.

It's funny that you mention the X-men because Amazon says this series may join the Marvel universe; could you see that happening?

In any event, it really does sound like a good read. I LOVE books/stories about mutants and though I'm not keen on romance novels, Adam and Carly's relationship does sound interesting enough. Thanks for the great review!

I love sci-fi books and enjoy reading about different superheroes with various mutations, unnatural abilities, in this case the abilities that have been passed on from generation to generation. I hope the author gives some explanation in the book about their anscestors and what was special about them. i usually don't do cliffhangers but this book sounds exciting. Anyway I got the free copy and thanks for making it free.

I'm starting to feel like a YA book can't be written that doesn't involve superhumans or vampires. It looks like this one takes a different approach with realistic characters so I'll be happy to give a read.

It seems that the author has written an interesting book for young adults. Despite the fact that I may be curious to know whether the scientists will succeed in their murderous mission, I may pass this one.

Calix Leighreighn has done a great job in describing Adam.
Thanks for your review.

Great review anyway, and great job to the writer of the book, sometime, it happen! we are all different due to our unique humanistic nature!

[harrymadede]

science fiction book for young adults that include old Russian family the descendants of power families sounds to be so so unique mix like the idea of how sometime people come into our life and make us realize just how much we can do or what we can just offer cant wait to grab one and read i give it a 4 star thumbs up to the author calix leigh

After the reviewer put this book on the same level as X Men, I think this book is a no-brainer must read. I love to read the super hero genre mixed with a little sci fi. The book sounds like it is full of action and has some great character development. Thanks for the review!

Thanks for your review, A young adult book is always enjoyable, and as you say this book has an interesting plot, with relatable characters, so I already put this book on my "must read shelve".

It seems opaque is not for me. I can't make any meaning from this review. The expressions and terms used are not familiar to me. Sorry!

[Sahani Nimandra]

I'm not much of a sci-fi fan but this book seem very promising. After all, in this busy schedule and depressing moments of my life a good book which gives me a good visualization is all I want to be lost with so thank you.

[stacie k]

Based on the cover alone, I was going to pass, but your glowing review makes me pause to consider. Thanks for a great review!

A fabulous review. Well done! I am not a usual reader of this genre, but this is very tempting...

[BookishCreature]

The premise of this book sounds super interesting! Human mutation is a concept I haven't seen before. I love a good sci-fi novel, but the whole high school romance thing isn't really my cup of tea anymore. I'll probably skip this one, but I'm sure lots of people will really love it.
