Synopsis
Fifteen-year-old Michelle saves the world on a daily basis…with her trusty video game controller, of course! Naturally, she jumps at the chance to play an experimental virtual reality game.
The beautiful fantasy world of Starrs? Check. The power to mold matter? Check. No reset button? Wait, she didn’t sign up for this!
Turns out Starrs is really real, and to make matters worse, Michelle’s interference awakens the Cycle of the Six Moons, a series of devastating trials that will devour the universe.
Fighting the apocalypse was way easier when danger stayed on the other side of the screen, but Michelle finds a secret weapon in her new-found powers. She uses them to rescue the crown prince of a powerful magic kingdom from their sworn enemies, a technologically-advanced cult that strives to eradicate magical blood.
Michelle starts to fall for Prince Jayse, the only one who believes Michelle to be a savior rather than a curse. But not even video games could prepare her for what the cult has in store for them…

Review by Matina’s Bookcase
4/5 stars

Review by Reading to Distraction
4/5 stars
“This book was super fun! It reminded me a bit of “The Unfortunate Decisions of Dahlia Moss” in the sense of a well-structured book about video games without being stereotypical, overly nerdy or not doing fans justice.”
Review by A New Look on Books
“I was amused and frustrated at times but her character did grow up… just not as fast as I would’ve liked. However that made her more real. She wasn’t some pseudo Goddess that knew everything and acted perfectly.”
Review by Cutting Muse
5/5 stars
“Video games, falling out of the sky, rescuing a prince, and magical adventure beyond your wildest imagination? What more could a girl ask for… This book has it ALL! Get ready to get lost in the pages of this epic adventure!”

Review by Areli
5/5 stars
“I love how the author made the characters connect to me. Like somehow they were really real. There are also two “swoon-worthy” guys.”
Review by Rachael at Crossroad Reviews
4/5 stars
“The nerd in me was literally ready to sell her soul to get the chance to read this!! And I’m so glad I did!!”
Review by Jennifer
5/5 stars
“The novel is a love letter to children of the ’90s, an era of older-generation gaming consoles and nerd-dom before it became cool. If you are a fan of video games, you will feel right at home in the world of Starrs.”
Review by Ann Marie at Buried Under Romance
“Although it’s a book aimed at the younger reader, it’s still a book that hooked me and I am in my 40s.”
