Scythe

TLDR: Overall, it was a good and easy read. Finished the book in 2 days and would recommend for anyone interested in diving into in a morally complicated world and wouldn’t mind some plot conveniences. Full Review: This was an easy and entertaining read and is the first book I read in a long while. I think it has a great concept and I love the world as it makes you think about the moral implications of each character’s beliefs and actions. I think the plot is interesting, and I particularly liked following Rowan as he got to do more interesting things and had more conflict in his story. I didn’t give it a 4 stars or higher because I felt like while the world makes you think about these moral issues deeply, they aren’t expanded upon too much. The villains in this story starts off fantastic - they do things that make the reader very uncomfortable but you can justify their actions morally and their motivation is understandable. However, they end up becoming cartoonishly evil which makes it clear that the author wants us to think that their actions are completely wrong, even though I think there are things worth exploring. Another aspect I didn’t like as much is that the character relationships don’t progress - for example, the main characters are supposed to be friends/lovers but you never get the sense that they like each other. They seem similarly cold to each other as they did when they first met and tbh I don’t think they even have a single friendly conversation. This is a shame because I felt like all the characters have distinct personalities and beliefs and their established relationships (e.g. family, old friends etc) are very well done.

WOW

Best novel to come out in dystopian since the Hunger Games

LOVE this series. It is one of those books that you continue to think about long after putting it down.

Monkey can’t climb water without the hoverboard

Everything I wanted and more !

Full of suspense. I absolutely loved it. Definitely going to continue reading. Right when you think you got it figured out, you don’t😂

What a book this is. Truly a cyberpunk feel to it, with an amazing story. Just read this and be hypnotized to the last page.

I’ve actually met this guy he’s really cool. All his books are fantastic and I highly recommend buying them. The narrator also does a fantastic job

Speechless is one way to put it. I literally couldn’t put this book down and read the whole thing is two days! Possibly the best book I’ve ever read!
