Wow I started this last night and I couldn't get 15 minutes into it. The way the author writes as if it was someone talking, but when they talk its slang instead of saying "with" its "wit" and so on. I found it extremely hard to read, I can understand useing that type of writeing for when a charac...
Check out this review on our blog!It really depresses me to give a book a negative review. However, this book depressed me as well as I read it, so After the Snow kind of deserves its negative review. Notice, my reasoning behind disliking this novel is not because of its monotonous nature. It's a lo...
PJV Quickie: My first thoughts when picking up this book for review, were, “this sounds like a snowy ‘Blood Red Road.’ I enjoyed ‘Blood Red Road’ so why not?” Wasn’t one of my genius moments. The narration style and poorly flushed out plot sent this one to the DNF pile.ReviewI should have learned my...
This book lies in the borderland between post-apocalyptic and dystopian, but it owes more to The Knife of Never Letting Go than it does to The Hunger Games. (I was also reminded of Blood Red Road, both because of the setting–they’re opposites!–and because of the narration.) It’s a skilful, troubling...
I tried to get into this book, I really did, but I just couldn't get past the slow-moving plot, the obviously unstable main character, and the strange dialect. I'm going to have to DNF this one unfortunately (this is only my 2nd DNF) and move on. Since it's a DNF I will not be posting a review on my...
I started After The Snow with high hopes. Post-apocalyptic books often become favorites or mine, thus I was looking forward to a story happening after Global Warming turns our planet into Snowmageddon. Unfortunately, it took me completely off guard with the bizarre writing style, then failed to capt...
This is going to be a DNF for me. I don't like the style this book is written in. I can't get into it, I keep getting distracted, and to be honest, I'm pretty bored. To be fair, I have a migraine and I am cranky as hell, but still, knowing me normally, that only translates to me reading about 90 pag...
More of my reviews at: Ageless Pages Reviews3.75 out of 5 stars.I so badly want to give this odd little novel 4 stars, but I just can't do. I'm adhering to the GoodReads' strict system of a four being 'really liked it' as opposed to a three's merely "liked it" for S.D. Crockett's debut. I want to re...
More reviews on The Aussie ZombieBefore I start with my thoughts on After the Snow, there’s a pretty big potential annoyance that I have to mention. This book is written in dialect/slang – so if you’re a grammar Nazi, or have trouble ‘giving voice’ to this style of dialogue be aware that you might w...
