Really loved this one.

Intriguing plot, but lacked emotion. I didn't like how touchy feely Jeff and alternate-universe Kitty were.

In this book you do not have 1 Kitty, you have 2!! The more the merrier.We have 2 parallel worlds (there are more, multiverse and all). But 2 Kittys change place and you can only imagine what will go down.I do prefer the real Kitty world. The other one was sad, and omg NO MARTINI. That is beyond sad. Instead she is married to Chuck. But Other Kitty shakes things up cos things are never perfect when Kitty is around. Someone is after them in that world. It was fun to see Kitty alone for once, but

Tenth in the Katherine "Kitty" Katt science fiction romance series and revolving around Kitty and a mess of aliens.My TakePheebs and Ev were so right, and what the heck was Kitty thinking to be such a schmuck!??Fate happens and the two Kittys get switched from their own universes to the other's. It's that initial wake-up that makes you laugh and want to hit someone over the head. Our Kitty is busy saving t'other Kitty's family and totally shocked that she's married to Chuckie, oops, I mean to sa...

I've been a huge fan of this series since I first discovered Touched by an Alien and every time I think it can't get any better Gini Koch throws something completely new into the mix and makes me love it even more. In fact I think Universal Alien might just be my new favourite instalment of the series! I could not put this book down so make sure you clear your diary for the day before you start it.Kitty's day starts off badly when she's forced to sit through an incredibly long cricket match, it

This one blew my mind. Switching places into an alternative world is so "Fringe" even if Ms. Koch calls it Bizarro world. Really, the references used in this story make so much sense and it's as if Ms. Koch and I are on the same wavelength. I get her humour and I love how her brain makes connections. The tenth book breaks me back into really enjoying this series since the last two were a bit less enjoyable than the others. This one really moved me as we see a different world where Chuckie and Ki...

Multiple universes, Kitty changing places with an alternate Kitty??? This should not have worked but it did, it was fantastic. Not only that, I loved both Kitty's - which seriously, Gini deserves some sort of prize for being able to achieve that.So much going on and it was all gripping, action packed, and intelligently crafted.

HOLY CRAP!Is it normal to go into a depression when you finish a book? I am so anxious for the next book I can hardly stand it, 3 months to go. Lord help me. That said, the reason I am so anxious is because I loved this book so much. It was an amazing way to shake up a series that could have otherwise gone stale. I barely put this nearly 500 page book down, and managed to finish it in a matter of a day and a half. Honestly this book was SO much more than I expected. Initially I thought it might

Review will be posted at www.books-n-kisses.com .NUMBER OF HEARTS: 4REVIEW: In Universal Alien Kitty’s world gets turned upside down and things may never be the same. I really liked Universal Alien. I will admit that when I first read the blurb I was really nervous. I didn’t want anything upsetting Kitty & Jeff’s story. But I trusted (after a bit of reassurance) and really liked this story. There were differently a few anxiety moments that I wished that “our” Kitty was with Jeff and the whole A...

Review courtesy of Dark Faerie TalesQuick & Dirty: I found this installment to be a refreshing take on the series with two Kitty’s fighting to right some unknown force in each other’s worlds.Opening Sentence: The former President of India, Abdul Kalam, shared a lovely sentiment—Look at the sky.The Review:Universal Alien is the tenth novel in the Alien/Katherine “Kitty” Katt series. This novel was quite a refresher for me as it really got away from the formula of the past few novels. The pacing w...

We fell in love with the series when we read the first book, Touched by an Alien, and the books after that first one have only deepened that love. So we were looking forward to reading Universal Alien. I will confess we were just a little bit apprehensive. Kitty is married to Chuckie in that other universe? I know many fans of this series love Chuckie, but Voodoo Bride and I have never liked him. But after 9 awesome books, we trusted Gini Koch enough to not be too worried. We were sure she would...

AMAZING!Review coming closer to release date!

In book ten of the Katherine “Kitty” Katt series, the gang experiences the biggest problems ever faced before. How much time do you have because I could be here all day trying to list them all out but the most important thing to know is that Kitty still remains true to herself. Well, apart from the very strange fact that she finds herself in a world where aliens don’t exist and she’s married to Charles Reynolds. But that’s not all. There are two Kittys. I know, this is all too much to handle

There's a meme out that says "Book Release Days Should be Treated Like National Holidays...."Well, I have at least two Book Release National Holidays, whenever Gini Koch releases a new Alien/Kitty Katt-Martini novel. I have a Nook, so that means that about 1 - 1:30 AM, (East Coast time) the book is downloaded to it. I'll stay up, anxiously checking it every 10 minutes, starting around 12:45 (just in case), and then squealing quietly (don't want to wake the husband or kids) when it's actually the...

Even before I started this series, this book got my attention. I loooove the idea of multiverses. But for that concept work, you have to have an established universe to appreciate the changes and this series was worth reading for this book. Gah! to realize that things could be so similar and yet so different and to know that characters from the first book are still around in the tenth is really neat. I have to say that I read this book twice. After finishing it, I took half a day to bask in the

MultiverseTale of two Kitties. When Kitty mother of three in danger Kitty of other books to the rescue in multimeter swap. One of better stories in fun series but should have had indicator to make it clearer which Kitty in action.

Holy Moly! Two Kittys? How awesome is this?So "our" Kitty has to go and save the lives of the children of the "other" Kitty, while she needs to come and save the relations between the A-Cs and Australia. Oh my goodness, so well written! Went back to look for a word (multiverse) and ended up re-reading 5 chapters. A really good "topic" of this book was the taking of things for granted and not really looking at how much our routine blinds us to what is really going on around us. Lots of action, a

****3.5 stars****This is a tough one to really evaluate. As a comics-geek girl myself, I've read more than a few "What If" books, and so I didn't struggle over the necessary suspension of disbelief. Not just that it could happen, but how quickly everyone accepted that it did happen, rather than lock both Kittys up in an asylum. And it was fun to get to spend time, in the alt-world, with characters that we haven't gotten to do a lot with. Particularly Alfred and Cox. And so much of that alt-world...

So good you should read the whole series to get to this bookI've read and enjoyed this whole series so far, but I regarded them as popcorn books--fun but not filling. Which is not a critique of Koch's skill: writing any novel is hard work, and writing long, action-packed novels with a huge cast of characters is really hard. They are, however, focused on entertainment, and they succeed very well.This book reaches a new level of skill while maintaining all the entertainment. Koch balances parallel...
