Review: Nova

Book Review: Nova, by Rebecca Yarros, 4 stars



He’s Landon Rhodes.

The Renegade they call Nova.

Sinfully gorgeous, broody, tatted-up, professional snowboarder.

Four-time X Games medalist —

Full-time heartbreaker.

They say a girl broke him once—

That’s why he’s so reckless, so driven, so careless with his conquests.

But I’m that girl.

They can call me his curse all they want.

He and I both know the truth—

He’s the one who destroyed me,

And I’m not the sucker who will let that happen again.


Genre: contemporary romance

Publication date: August 2024

Mature content: yes

Review: Nova is book 2 in the Renegades series by Rebecca Yarros and, in terms of timeline, closely follows book 1 (Wilder). Although Nova features a set of different main characters and a different plot line, I wouldn't recommend it as a stand alone book, as a lot of the background comes from the first installment in the series.  

While I liked both Rachel and Landon and their love story, sometimes throughout the book I wished they didn't go back and forth so much - and weren't so stubborn. It all worked fine in the end, of course, but I felt the plot dragged along a bit in places when I just wanted it to move forward. 

Still, it's a fun book, written in Rebecca Yarros' very compelling style, and if you love the genre you shouldn't miss it. 

Happy readings!
