Beth Revis's Across the Universe (Book 1 in the Across the Universe Trilogy.)



4/5 stars


This book was amazing. For me at least. So, the story behind how I got this book is a little strange. I went over to my neighbors house to return her copy of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. We were talking for a while about books and she asks me what I'm reading. As most of the books are re-reads, she shoves the book in my hands and tells me to read. So of course, I did. Half of it in one night. I just couldn't stop reading. I just kept flipping pages. It's kinda like the time I had a funnel cake and I told myself I would not to eat all of it and then, next thing I knew it was gone.

Trapped in space and frozen in time, Amy is bound for a new planet. But fifty years before she is due to arrive, she is violently woken, the victim of an attempted murder. Now Amy's lost on board and nothing makes sense - she's never felt so alone.

Yet someone is waiting for her. He wants to protect her; and more if she'll let him.

But who can she trust amidst the secrets and lies? A killer is out there and Amy has nowhere to hide . . .


Things I liked

  • It was very exciting. I couldn't stop turning pages

  • Elder was very relatable.

  • I personally love dystopian societies.

  • The book had some parts in it that reminded me of what is going on in the world now. It helped think through it.


Things I Did Not Like

  • Amy whined most of the book about her parents. I can understand it at first, but the entire book come on.

  • HOW THE CRAP DID AMY KNOW ABOUT THE WATER.

  • If read frex one more time I swear to God.

  • It was a little confusing times. I couldn't keep all the character straight in my mind.


All in all, I loved the book, but the writing sucked. I can;t wrap my head around why I love it so much, but I do. Is that wierd? Happy reading :).
