pickI love this author! This one hit hard too. I can't even imagine how my life would be if “The Marriage Act“ was real! All the AI stuff is scary! Zoey and Lobster were lying next to me when I was finishing this one :)

The One
pickAnother great Heller read. Different from previous books as it is set in a dystopia, similar to ours.
pickI LOVED The River, which was my first PH book, but was not impressed with The Painter or The Lone Ranger, so I was hesitant to try this one. I‘m so glad I did though, this book was amazing! I read it in a day. The ONLY complaint is the Hannah side story - it didn‘t add anything and I agree with other reviewers that PH is not great at writing female characters. (5)
⭐️: 4.25/5
pickTold from the perspectives of a teenage girl and her parents, this is the future, but it‘s also the past. Her parents frequently tell her stories of what it was like before, how hard they had to fight, and how that progress is still so delicate due to the continuing capitalist greed of the fossil fuel industry and its climate criminals. Life looks radically different and is not easy, but together, humanity pulls through. When violence breaks⬇️
Progress is fragile. Revolution is a delicate bird. We think we have fixed everything, but the old world – the destroying classes – they will roll it back the instant they can. They are trying. Are you listening to me?
