Instant Karma
By: Marissa Meyer
Release Date: November 3, 2020
Publisher:

Book Summary:

In this young adult contemporary romance, a girl is suddenly gifted with the ability to cast instant karma on those around her—both good and bad.

Chronic overachiever Prudence Daniels is always quick to cast judgment on the lazy, rude, and arrogant residents of her coastal town. Her dreams of karmic justice are fulfilled when, after a night out with her friends, she wakes up with the sudden ability to cast instant karma on those around her. Pru giddily makes use of the power, punishing everyone from public vandals to karaoke hecklers, but there is one person on whom her powers consistently backfire: Quint Erickson, her slacker of a lab partner and all-around mortal enemy. Soon, Pru begins to uncover truths about Quint, her peers, and even herself that reveal how thin the line is between virtue and vanity, generosity and greed . . . love and hate.



Why I'm Eagerly Waiting:

This story sounds unique and fun!  I like the idea of the main character coming in to a magical ability, and discovering things about herself, her enemy, and her peers.

What are you waiting on?

  1. I have never read a Meyer book, because SFF is not my thing, but my daughter loves her books. I feel like this could be something special. I like the whole karma link, and am eagerly awaiting right alongside you.

  3. Wow, what an interesting premise! That's a lot of power to wield. I didn't know Meyer wrote contemporary (I only know her for the sci-fi Lunar Chronicles) but this one sounds really cute!

  7. I love all things Marissa Meyer but I'm nervous about this one. I think it's the contemporary feel since I'm not always into them. I agree though, I think this story sounds so unique and Marissa is bound to make this an amazing story.
