TWO Weeks Until ONE: Comic Strip Installment #8
Hey everyone!
If you have been following my blog, then you know that I have mentioned One by Leigh Ann Kopans a few times. I was lucky enough to be apart of Team One and read an ARC of One and I can't tell you guys how much I loved this book.
There is romance and (light) science fiction...all wrapped into a book with extremely gorgeous writing and an equally beautiful cover. Leigh Ann Kopans is an author to watch. This story will make you swoon over the setting and the romance between Merrin/Elias. It will also make you root for Merrin until the very end.
I love books with strong female main characters. And Merrin is definitely strong. She knows what she wants, sticks by her decisions, and never quits trying. One is set in a world where having half of a superpower isn't anything extraordinary. If you want to do anything important in life you have to have two powers; be a Super. Merrin wants nothing more than to do something important in her life, but she'll learn that having one power or two isn't what decides the kind of future she'll lead.
Despite the title of the book, One proves that there is power in numbers; that we don't have to save the world alone. I'm not good at reviewing books and I'm sure you can find a better, more in-depth review of One but this book is seriously a book that you won't want to pass up. It's a refreshing, light read that will make you wish you already had the sequel.
Okay, enough of my rambling. I know you guys are mostly here for the 8th installment of the beautiful comic strip drawn by Francesca Zappia.
So without farther ado...

About ONE (a novel by Leigh Ann Kopans:)
Release date: June 11, 2013
When having two powers makes you a Super and having none
makes you a Normal, having only one makes you a sad half-superpowered freak.
It makes you a One.
Sixteen-year-old Merrin Grey would love to be able to fly – too bad all she can do is hover.
If she could just land an internship at the Biotech Hub, she might finally figure out how to fix herself. She busts her butt in AP Chem and salivates over the Hub’s research on the manifestation of superpowers, all in hopes of boosting her chances.
Then she meets Elias VanDyne, another One, and all her carefully crafted plans fly out the window. Literally. When the two of them touch, their Ones combine to make them fly, and when they’re not soaring over the Nebraska cornfields, they’re busy falling for each other.
Merrin's mad chemistry skills land her a spot on the Hub's internship short list, but as she gets closer to the life she always wanted, she discovers that the Hub’s purpose is more sinister than it has always seemed. Now it’s up to her to decide if it's more important to fly solo, or to save everything - and everyone - she loves
