"Oh, where to start, where to start with this book? A city of ash. An island of sick. A country filled with zombies. A girl that comes back from the dead, another that feeds on blood. A boy that carries a monster deep inside him, and another that wants to insight a revolution. If any of that gave you shivers, you are not alone.
Gods of Anthem was a YA dystopian/post-apocalyptic novel that rolled together some of the most mysterious and exciting ideas out there and set it in a dystopian future where people survive but never thrive. While Gods of Anthem has all the elements of your traditional dystopian novel, it's very unique. I swear I've read nothing like it, and I fell in love with the world and characters.
My favorites? Liza and Tommy--for their struggles (both inner and outer) and the depth and complexity of their personalities. I also had SUCH a soft spot for Jo-Jo; she was adorable. And Jeremy? Him, I'm still on the fence about. I want to like him--I definitely pitied him at times--but I don't know. I'm still undecided. Cory can run straight into a zombie. That's how I feel about that character.
And aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh! That ending! I'm squealing. Actually, from 70% on, there were so many twists and turnsI was practically salivating, That climax! That ending! OMG. I need the next book nooooooow." Best-selling Author Laura Thalassa
