The set-up is so creepy, I cannot imagine these aliens, Them. They are so strong, but Amy luckily finds their weaknesses and even though her parents don't survive, their eccentricities from life helps her to survive in this almost post-apocalyptic setting. At first Amy thinks she is alone, the last ...
In the After is an interesting amalgam of a book -- a book that started out as a post-apocalyptic survival story, then shifted to a psychological thriller, then to a sci-fi action story. Though I prefer my genre mash-ups to be a little more well-blended, I still think that there is a lot here that ...
Science fiction is probably one of the many genres with a huge market. In such a crowded market, it’s always riveting to find newer concepts or unique themes that authors could offer but only a few of them manages to pull it off. Demitria Lunetta’s debut novel is not far from that fact.Set in anothe...
Right from the start I loved this book. You are thrown into the action from the beginning. The story is mostly told in the present with flashbacks of Amy's past.

I thought the storyline was good, it was full of action and excitement but it was nothing I haven’t read before. The general themes are ...
Two stars, eh? Looks like it must be a negative review, right? In this case, though, this isn't that much of a negative review. Rather, these are the reasons why I didn't love this book and the reasons why I think a whole bunch of other people probably will. So...There's this book you might have hea...
Short and Sweet:In the After had my heart pounding from the first page. This story is a fresh take on the monsters that occupy a fallen world. Ms. Lunetta does a fine job of world building. I always dislike when a book overdoes 'explaining' instead of 'showing' what is happening: not a problem here....
3.5 stars. I enjoyed Part One the most. The tension was fantastic. Once Amy and Baby got into New Hope, I felt there was a bit of a lag. Overall, it was an interesting premise and I enjoyed the twists.
I'd been eyeing In the After ever since I saw it in the HarperTeen catalogue. Even the blurb had an air of mystery about it - who are They? And considering They are the catalyst for an apocalypse, I was all over it like a cheap suit (I've always wanted to say that).In the After jumps straight into t...
