Pages: 600
Summary: Gaia is a brilliant, beautiful girl who is trained in three kinds of martial arts, has a reflex speed that’s off the charts, and can climb mountains, box, wrestle, and break codes in four languages. She has no trouble throwing a grown man over her shoulders. She doesn’t care what people think of her, and she’s never scared…Because she is missing the fear gene. In this action-packed bind-up, Gaia makes her way through the treacherous halls of high school and is forced to come to terms with herself, the boys in her life, and her completely MIA family. But she can handle it. She is....Fearless.
My Thoughts: Even though the description is a bit vague, I am still intrigued by the idea of a kick-ass protagonist. Plus, how beautiful is that cover! I look forward to reading this trilogy when it comes out.
What are your thoughts on Fearless?

This is a re-release, isn't it? I own a copy of Fearless, I haven't read it yet but it's a used copy printed sometime in the 90's I think.
I so wanna read this too! :)
Interesting. I wonder what she will discover. VERY cool choice. You are SO good at finding upcoming covers. I wish I had your connection :)
Sound so good.Yeah, the synopsis is vague but it adds to the mystery of this book!
I haven't heard of this one - at 600 pages it better have some depth to it! :)
Our WOW pick is at BookSake.
You know this is a rerelease of the first three books of the series, right? There's 30 in total - I read them all back in the early 2000s.
Oh!
Yeah this is a re-release. I've read the first six or so. But I really like the cover of that one. I don't own the series and if they're bringing them out again this may be an opportunity for me to finish the series. Thanks for pointing it out :)
Wonderful! Fantastic!
Thanks, Eleni!
I read these books when I was still the right age (officially :)) and I loved them to bits. You know thought, that this is a 36 book series with a couple of spin offs, right? This may be a re-issue of the first three novels and they're all well worth reading. Just know what you're getting yourself into. Cause after the first three, you won't be able to stop!
