Sever: Lauren DeStefano

The Chemical Garden Series

I first read Wither with my Book Club in 2011
I actually read it on the beach in Cancun... (sigh)
I immediately fell in love with the characters.
Lots of love/hate/love/love to hate relationships going on.
Fever was such a great ending to the series.
It wrapped up the series in a way that I was so happy with,
except Chapter 24, I literally cried. 
I follow Lauren DeStefano on Twitter
(that isn't creepy right? I just love her.)
and I think she actually likes when her readers get mad. 
I maybe was a little excited when I got a retweet from her yesterday.

If you haven't read this trilogy, you should.
A post war America develops a way for humans to live disease free.
The only catch is girls lives end at 20, boys at 25. 
Girls are kidnapped and sold into marriage or prostitution.
It is a scary world, full of polygamy and young death.
It is completely captivating. 

Xo,
Kelli

Onto my next book.
Also I really am writing, I have finished two chapters this week.
I also am studying for a nasty essay midterm.

  1. First, I freaking miss reading book #1 on the beach in Cancun. Second, I need to read the rest, if it is that good. Third, I had no idea you were on twitter. I haven't signed up, because I don't understand it one bit. I'm sure a retweet is something great though! :)
