What a fun read! Goddess in the Machine follows Andra, a girl who was supposed to wake up from her cryogenic sleep after 100 years. Instead, she wakes up 1,000 years later. Far from home and her family, Andra must try to find her way back. But what happens when you throw a crazy ruler, an attractive bastard prince, and a lot of secrets into the mix? Andra might find herself having to choose between her desire to find her family and the survival of the world she finds herself in.

This was such a fun, exciting read! I loooved the linguistic aspects of the book. I really want to talk to the author and find out how she kept everything straight. I found myself understanding the "language" more as a read, which was kind of a fun aspect of the novel!

The plot is also very interesting. We know everyone is hiding something - we just don't know what. I can honestly say that I didn't expect some of the twists and turns that Johnson gave us, nor did I expect them. The story went along at a great pace and it kept my attention throughout. I also loved the characters. Zhade is probably my favorite (because he's sassy and we love some good sass). The development and storyline between Zhade and Andra is compelling and fun to read.

Overall, I highly enjoyed this book! I would recommend it to anyone who loves YA fantasy!
