This was an accidental picking for me to read but I am so glad I did. Sometimes, steep out of your comfort zone I suppose. This book was so compelling I read it straight through (all-nighter). Good thing I am a teacher and off for the summer. I could not put it down. It had fabulous characters and a story so awesome, I can not wait for the next book! Hurry, please!!!

I loved this book it drew me in from the beginning and the end left me wanting more soon.
Milla has worked for most of her life so that she can make things better for her family. Every penny she makes goes to her plan of having her family with her again and all of them living a better life than the one they have been dealt. Milla wants nothing more than to have her family back together again. So when that opportunity falls in her lap Milla jumps on with both feet.
Taking the identity of a dead girl could get Milla closer to having her family back if she plays her cards right. All she has to do is pretend to be this dead girl long enough to enter a contest where the winner will receive one million credits. If anyone finds out that Milla is not who she says she is then she is dead.
I like how we got to see both worlds that were created in Skin Hunter. Milla was from Old Triton where everyone live in shelters and work all the time leaving then no time for doing fun things much less the money. Not enough water for drinking much less taking a bath. I could just see Milla with dirt all over her face and clothes so old and worn they were probably hanging in threads.
But then New Triton is the total opposite of Old Triton with all of the futuristic technology. In my mind I could just see the walls and the equipment in New Triton in all its white and silver glory shinning like a new penny.
Skin Hunter will suck you in from the beginning following Milla from the old to the new rooting for her the whole way hoping she wouldn’t get caught knowing that she deserved it all with how hard she has fought to make a life for her family never once thinking about herself and that she could keep her money or credits all for herself.
Even after entering her new world in New Triton she still though about others and about helping them but you know sometimes you can try as hard as you might to help someone and it turns out that they won’t accept your help and turn on you then you have to fight for number one.
I have truly enjoyed reading Skin Hunter tremendously and can’t wait for the next book in the series Skin Rebellion. Skin Hunter is one book that I highly recommend to anyone that likes dystopian, science fiction, futuristic technology, and young adult novels with a bit of romance and an overall fantastically great story of the future.
I really enjoyed following Milla as she struggled in a world not her own to win the ultimate prize freedom for her family and a chance to be together with them
I absolutely loved this story. Milla and Cale were so good for each other as they prepared for the competition. This story kept me reading and I did not want to put it down. I definitely have to read the next one because there are just too many variables to imagine what’s going to happen now. Will she get her skin back or does she even need it? Will anything come of her and Cale?
