I will admit at first this book took me a long time to read. But once I hit the 1/2 to 3/4 mark I couldn't put this book down!"What will you do if he is dead?" I think about the possibility, although it leaves me so empty each breathe is a knife wound. "Mourn him forever."Going from YA to AF was a m...
For quite a few weeks I've been avoiding YA post-apocalyptic and dystopians - I think I've OD'ed a little and they all feel similar - love triangles, mediocre world-building and there is apparently something very wrong about writing stand-alone novels. So I decided I would turn things on it's head ...
In her debut novel Alex Adams holds nothing back in a dystopia novel that will take you into the darkness of humanity.THEN: Zoe leads a fairly ordinary life that has had it share of hardships that she is struggling to get past. She is currently working at Pope Pharmaceuticals cleaning the floors and...
MiscJoy: Where to begin with a book of this nature? I think the obvious choice is the prose. Adams presents us with a story written with some of the most beautiful prose I’ve come across in awhile. The richness of the language and the author’s voice drew me in immediately. Just stunning. I found mys...
I read this one quickly, because it was engrossing and I had to keep reading. It reminded me of The Road ( a book I loved long before Oprah did) except that White Horse seemed much more void of hope and gave us a clear idea of what happened to bring the world to its knees. The book goes back and for...
This book... This book gets the coveted 5 star rating from me. This book is that good. And this book positively infuriates me that it is not more popular.I knew this book had the potential to rock my world when I found out it was a post-apocalyptic tale with heavy Greek allusions. Right up my alley....
For the first 100 pages, White Horse was well on its way to being a five star read. That's not to say it didn't have problems, it did. * But the story was entertaining. The structure was highly effective. The tale of two girls, one blind, trying to make it in this post-apocalyptic landscape worked w...
Terrified and curious.That's how Zoe says she feels about a recurring dream that she's been having; she's both terrified by and curious about how it plays out.That's exactly the response that a number of readers will have to White Horse.Alex Adams' debut novel contains a lot of conflicting emotions....
I would describe this book as the Prequel to Oryx and Crake meets The Road. I read Oryx and Crake and loved it but I couldn't get past the first couple of pages of The Road. This book has an interesting layout, each chapter is divided into Then and Now - 2 different points of view of the same char...
