review 1: I checked out this novella from the library because I have Life After Theft on my to-read shelf and since this was published first I thought I should read it first. I'm not sure what the purpose of this novella was but it made about no sense to me. Maybe after I read Life After Theft but to judge this novella on it's own I'd say skip it. I'm kind of disappointed because there are some great novella's out there, this isn't one of them.
review 2: “One More Day” is the prequel to Aprilynne Pike’s Life After Theft (which was phenomenal by the way!). Even though it is a prequel, I ended up not reading it until I finished Life After Theft and I’m glad I did it that way. I got to know Kimberlee throughout Life After Theft and discovering more things about her
... moreand her past as the book progressed was one of my favorite parts.Had I read “One More Day” before Life After Theft, I would have instantly known more about Kimberlee and I would have understood her better, but the reading experience would have been completely different. I so enjoyed getting to know Kimberlee through Life After Theft and I’m glad my experience wasn’t shadowed by the prequel.The biggest question when reviewing a prequel or an in-between novella is whether or not it is essential to the plot. “One More Day” is definitely not essential. It provided a lot of insight into Kimberlee’s character and I was even more sympathetic to her than I was after reading Life After Theft. As much as I enjoyed this novella though, it is definitely in the “true fan” category. If you read Life After Theft and you loved it and are just dying for more, then this novella is definitely for you! less

Interesting and captivating. Can't wait to see what Life After Theft has to offer.

I really liked the first 2/3 of the book and then it got kind of stupid.
