I wasn't expecting this but it was great.
I was not sure what was awaiting me with this book title but I kinda waited for something from the movie "Rise of the guardians". Now I waited for the wrong thing. XD But this story was very entertaining and a very fast read. We are joining a group of people who are living at a place where the weather is following a concrete plan. When this plan is suddenly changing, the survivel of the group is at stake.

I literally forgot everything that happened in this book. Granted, I read this book months ago but still. I should at least remember the general things? Like the characters? THEIR NAMES? But nope. This whole thing was unforgettable and I feel bad for saying that.

This was an anticipated release for me and I wanted so much to love it. Sadly that wasn't the case when it comes to The Revolution of Jack Frost. The writing style just didn't sit right with me for some reason and I couldn't connect to the story. Sadly it just didn't work for me.

I requested this book on Netgalley because it had Jack Frost in the title and the synopsis sounded like an interesting sort of scifi read. Well, guess what, it wasn't interesting at all. I promised an honest review, I'm going to have to be brutally honest with this one. It sucked.

I was very annoyed with the writing, it felt like the author knew exactly what she wanted to write but once she sat down to actually write the story, she forgot what proper world-building is...

The characters were all very bland or confusing or just plain weird or all of the above.
Genesis: Her obsession with Jack is so freaking weird, what even is this mess.
Jack: That dude has some serious issues that he needs to solve STAT.
Nathaniel: I was pretty sure he was going to murder Jack and he is supposed to be his best friend *insert my very confused face right here*
Azra: She was cool. She should have been the MC, maybe I wouldn't have skipped half the book.
Eustace: Okay, what's up with him? Should I know him already even though he's never properly introduced? I don't have a sixth sense so that's not gonna work...

Okay, so, this book was a little too weird for me. I skipped most of it and had to DNF it a little over halfway through. I don't like DNFing books but I also don't like to waste my time. I really wanted to like this book but it's a definite no from me.

I gave this several tries, but I finally ended up DNFing it at around 40%. I did give it a fair shake, but there were several reasons that this book just wasn't for me, in the end.

First, there was a bit of a disconnect between what I believed the book would be and what it was. That's on me. The blurb sounds exciting and action-packed (and I'm a huge fan of dystopian books), but the story itself was actually extremely slow paced. By the time I DNFed it, they still didn't know they were in an experimental area where the weather was controlled, even though they called it "the Snowglobe," so ... I was a bit confused. They seemed to know that a world existed outside of their Snowglobe, but at the same time, they didn't know they were part of a weird experiment or in a controlled environment, and I just wasn't sure how.

The world-building was a bit spotty. Part of that, I'm sure, is the fact that they live in a confined space. But I felt like it wasn't set up solidly enough for me to get an idea of what this place was like. They obviously are aware of an outside world that at one point had things like phones and vehicles and such, so I assume it takes place in the future. That's about all I really know about this world, and that's an assumption.

Another big disappointment was the book is titled "The Revolution of Jack Frost," and the idea of Jack Frost was part of the reason I picked it up. Unfortunately, I'm not sure where the connection is, other than the fact that one of the characters is named Jack and they're stuck in a super long winter. I guess that's the only connection? I don't know. Maybe it becomes more obvious later on, but I wasn't invested enough in the story to find out.

I did enjoy the banter between the characters, which was pretty fun and light-hearted. I also enjoyed the mystery. I mean, someone obviously isn't what they seem, and I was interested in finding out who the deceiver was. I had suspicions, and I hope that it was incorrect, because otherwise, it seemed awfully obvious. But still, I did love the mystery.

I felt like there was a lot of potential in the story, but it seemed disjointed and just didn't add up to a complete picture.

K. M. Robinson was great at bringing Jack Frost to life in the pages. Frost has been one of my favorite characters since I was a little girl and this was amazing.

This book was incredibly enjoyable! Ms. Robinson is an amazing author, demonstrated by her ability to write so many various YA books that are engaging, include characters that are fascinating and you can relate with and also writes a story in a way that you never quite know what's going to happen.

In this book the plot was fascinating, using weather and survival as the means of introduction to this comlpicated world that the characters live in. There are lots of different people to get to know and they are unique and identifiable enough that you can easily keep up with everything that is transpiring through out the story. Robinson is known for including twists and turns that keep you surprised and sometimes horrified, and she certainly did not let up in this one either!

An enjoyable YA read that melted my heart and had me turning pages so quickly, I almost couldn't keep up with my eyes.

I saw the word Jack Frost in the title and I immediately knew I wanted to read this book. The book have a lot of good ideas, the whole climate change influenced dystopian world + manipulated test subject + weather machine, but I feel that the beginning lacks a lot of world building and the characters are just... Meh.

I was confused about a lot of things in this book, the author did try to explain a lot of things throughout the story but it just felt flat and confusing and honestly the plot was really predictable, especially that ending. I have a tough time connecting with all of the characters too, especially the protagonist, Gen. Maybe I expected too much of the book since the name Jack Frost was involved.

Honestly I kinda wished the author would scrap the whole Jack Frost thing because the book alone would be fine without the name attached to the story. I think its because The Guardians movie gave me such a clear idea of Jack Frost that I can't help comparing that character and this character even though it's so obvious they're not the same.

The book feels like it tries TOO hard and yet at the same time not at all, as a reader I feel like I saw too many gaps and holes between the plot and the character and that's the last thing I want to notice when I'm diving into a book.

I was really excited about this one, but it ended up being pretty messy and hard to follow. I think there's a good story in there somewhere, but it was badly told and hard to follow. The characters didn't really have believable personalities.

I actually didnt finish this book because I had a really hard time getting into it. I just had a really hard time connecting and it was confusing.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an e-arc in exchange for an honest review. This was so good!

I received this eARC from Bleeding Ink Publishing on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of this book in any way.

The Revolution of Jack Frost was all in all a pleasant read. In total I give it 3.5 stars, but rounded down to 3.

I think that the biggest problem with this book is the title. It's entirely misleading, and from the reviews that I've read it seems to be why so many people are disappointed in the book. I think that this book was good, and don't understand why it has so many bad reviews. But the fact of the matter is, there is no revolution in this book. Much less a revolution led by Jack.

With that out of the way, let's get to what the book's about, and what I enjoyed about it.

The Revolution of Jack Frost follows a group of people living in a bunker in an unnamed location that experiences very strange and deadly weather patterns, unfortunately for them the weather is about to get a lot stranger. When out of the norm fluctuations begin happening, Genesis and a few other bunker residents begin to suspect that their lives are being controlled by someone else.

I really liked the characters in this book and the relationships that they had among them. Seeing Jack, Genesis, Nathaniel, and everyone else in the bunker interact was heartwarming, One thing that I wasn't such a fan of, was how you were thrown into this world and their relationships with little to no background or explanation. I would have loved to be able to see Jack and Genesis's relationship develop, rather than be witness to it when it was two years strong.

I also wish that the book was a bit longer, when it got to the end everything seemed to go so fast and I was a little bit confused.

I did enjoy this book, though it was a bit average and nothing mind-blowing I would recommend it if you're looking for a light interesting read.

I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. I was not sure what I was getting into with this book. I love anything about fairy tales or folklore. So when I got my hands on this I was very excited. Gen and Jack did not know they part of an experiment in the Snow Globe. A threat comes to destroy the world they know and have to survive they believe someone among them maybe to blame. It is a very interesting take on this tale.

I really tried giving this book a chance. I s started, stopped, and put aside more times than I can count. I pushed through one final time, and am throwing in the towel. I dozed off while reading, which rarely happens.

I was hoping for a Jack Frost type of re-telling. What I got was a Maze Runner knock-off. The character’s were bland, with no personality. And some parts were just hard to follow along.

I really didn't like this book. The writing was too simple. I felt like the whole plot was told through dialogue and there wasn't enough description or depth. I barely know what anyone looked like and the synopsis of the book actually spoiled the reveal for me. Not a good experience for me.

I don't know if it was because I read this book at the end of the summer, and it seems like a book I'd want to read in the middle of December or January, but unfortuneatly I just couldn't get into this book. The author seemed to have an original story line and a story to tell, but the actual writing of it just seemed to get into the way,

I received an ARC copy from netgalley for my honest review, so thank you netgalley and publishers for offering me this book! ♡
The cover and title is what originally drew me to this book.
No one inside the snow globe knows that Morozoko Industries is controlling their weather, testing them to form a stronger race that can survive the fall out from the bombs being dropped in the outside world—all they know is that they must survive the harsh Winter that lasts a month and use the few days of Spring, Summer, and Fall to gather enough supplies to survive.
When the seasons start shifting, Genesis and her boyfriend, Jack, know something has gone wrong. As their team begins to find technology that they don’t have access to inside their snow globe of a world, it looks more and more like one of their own is working against them.
Genesis soon discovers Morozoko Industries is to blame, but when a foreign enemy tries to destroy their weather program to make sure their destructive life-altering bombs succeed in destroying the outside world, their only chance is to shut down the machine that is spinning out of control and save the lives of everyone inside the bunker--at any cost.
This was my first book by this author. It was alltogether an easy read. ♡ I give this book a
4.5 star rating!

This was a totally unexpected yet disappointed read.
I was hooked up in the summary. Jack frost was always my hero and I was intrigued to read this.
But as the story goes the interest dimmed away.

Pretty strong start but it trudged in between, finished predictably.
May or may not look forward to the sequel if it manages to compensate for book 1.

DNF...Sorta...since I skipped ahead, as the story took a lot of time to pick up and wherever I landed I was getting not only the vibes of <i>Maze Runner by James Dashner</i> distinctly but also how the what the conflict the plot was surrounded by.

Its better termed as Dystopian Jack Frost, for you won't find much related to the real Jack Frost here.
I really considered continuing with this, but now I don't see it happening.

<b> E-Arc received from Net-Galley, Thank you Bleeding Ink, Xpresso Booktours & the author for the opportunity to review this book </b>

The title and summary of the book hooked me. Jack Frost being one of my favourite fairy tale hero, there was no way I would pass this book without giving it a chance.

Such sadness I felt to realise, only a few pages in, that the whimsical and enchanted story I was hoping for, would in fact be a soppy, post apocalyptic teenage romance. Far were the magic I was waiting for, replaced instead by a weak main character and a Jack Frost that is in fact the rude and pompous bachelor of the bunker.

I had to force myself to finish this book, hoping that every new page could be my saviour and would finally bring the wind of fresh air, laughter and light-hearted touch that Jack Frost embodies, but alas.

Although the premise was promising, I am afraid this book simply did not meet my expectations.
