Waiting on Wednesday - Eve by Anna Carey

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted over at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that are being eagerly anticipated.


Eve (The Eve Trilogy #1) by Anna Carey
Goodreads - October 4th 2011 by HarperTeen


The year is 2032, sixteen years after a deadly virus—and the vaccine intended to protect against it—wiped out most of the earth’s population. Wildlife has grown over once recognizable landmarks, and the New America is ruled by a controlling King who will stop at nothing to rebuild the nation—including enslaving its boys and turning its girls into broodmares.

The Eve Trilogy is a breathlessly told story with an unforgettable heroine. Anna Carey has imagined a remarkable and unique world, and brings a compelling new voice to the dystopian genre. Eve offers a haunting glimpse of the global pandemic some scientists say is inevitable, and a world forever altered by its aftermath. Fans of Twilight and The Hunger Games will revel in this epic story of forbidden love, and an unforgettable heroine’s extraordinary adventure.
Ok, perhaps the references to Twilight and The Hunger Games are a bit much - but this book still looks fantastic. Delirium has wetted my appetite for post-apocalyptic YA... not to mention I also rather like the idea of a world with a few fewer humans on it!

  9. Looks like it could be interesting. I don't care so much about the forbidden love aspect (if it's there, great, but I don't go looking for it in a book), but the dystopian aspect is right up my alley!

  10. I really liked this story. Great setting and I love Eve's growth. I got sucked in and finished the booking a day and a half. I have to admit that I was a bit irked at the ending but it does leave the story open for the next two books. I recommend that you read this book if you like post-apocalyptic stories.
