The Passing
For fans of Divergent, Hunger Games & Game of Thrones
comes a story like no other...
The Great War happened over two hundred years ago, leaving the world in an almost purged state. The biological warfare decimated the majority of the world's population, making the future generations immune to diseases and common illnesses.
This, however, comes with a grave price. On the twenty-fifth year of everyone's life, they perish without explanation. They have come to call this, The Passing. For many, this means starting families early or adopting orphans who have already lost their parents to The Passing. Others simply live life to their fullest or try to educate themselves by scraps of history and science in hopes of finding a cure.
This story follows the lives of a few different characters as they entwine and follow their own paths.

Bought on a whim because the plot sounded interesting and it did not disappoint. There was a character I absolutely hated that I think the author intended for readers to like, but the fact that a character was able to incite that much of a reaction must say something positive about the writing, right? I'm actually invested in the characters and the different storylines were fun, though I do enjoy some of the storylines more than others. Looking forward to the next in the series!

I have a love/hate relationship with this right now. Loved the journey, hate that I can't read more yet!
I like the variety a lot but would like a faster pace in the future. I get needing backstory and details, but personally, I care more about dialog and progression.
