Unfortunately I wasn't able to read this book before it was archived. My tastes have changed and I'm not sure it would be a good fit for me now.

the plot was amazing, the development of the characters (and the trials they were forced to overcome due to their very unfortunate circumstances) was spot on, and the ending was Fan-freaking-tastic. (God I’m turning into one of those people that can’t think of interesting adjectives.)

This book was requested when I was young and requested more books than I could possibly read. Sadly, I no longer have access to this book and my tastes have changed. Thus I will not be able to give feedback on this title.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to read this book before it was archived. But I do think it looks really interesting and unique and I would love to check it out in the future!

Thanks for providing a review copy, I was not able to read this one. So I will not be leaving a review on social media at this time.

So I have mixed feelings about this book.

On the one hand, it was very entertaining in terms of storyline and world-building. On the other hand, I HATE love triangles, and there's a very prominent one in this book almost since the very beginning.

World:
This book was reminiscent of Warm Bodies, The Darkest Minds, and the Argeneau series. Or at least an interesting mix of the two, adding a little bit of Cybermen from Doctor Who. It was such an interesting idea to have what was supposed to be something to help humanity heal, to instead mutate them and turn them into monsters. Then for the entire world to be in decline and humans being scarce.

Writing:
The writing was good and enjoyable. I love how the author didn't bother with a lot of descriptions that took away from the world and premise. Instead, it was focused on simple descriptions and world-building whenever the opportunity presented itself.

Characters:
I like how the author portrayed Eve and the fact that she was emotionally stunted. Though at times it bothered me, I still understood what the author was going for. We didn't get as much from West as I would have liked, but Avian was a pretty cool character.

As a whole, I enjoyed the story but wasn't really fond of the love triangle. It colored my enjoyment of the story unfortunately.

I liked it way more than I thought I would. I went in with not much expectations, but Eve was a strong character who made me root for her throughout.

When a book is driven by romance it can be a hit or a miss for me, and this was the case here.

I did enjoy many aspects of the story, but running in circles made my head spin and i could not enjoy it fully. That's mostly because while the character's mind was on something and I was interested in other aspects of her life.

On the good side, I liked the settling and the overall story was at times entertaining, with a few unique elements. On the bad side, the characters could have been better defines, as their actions seemed random at times.

The human race has nearly been destroyed by a scientific attempt to heal disease and illness through cybernetics. Those who have been able to hide from the Fallen (the infected who've essentially become robots) struggle everyday to survive.

Eve is among the remaining humans. "While fighting to keep Eden alive, Eve will discover that being human is about what you will do for those you love, not what your insides may be made of."

A very creative story with enjoyable characters. I had no idea who Eve would chose until she made her decision.

Self publishing seems to lend to more typos and grammatical errors than novels traditionally published, but Keary has made lots of improvement in both areas.

This book was a DNF (did-not-finish) for me. The synopsis was intriguing and the storyline seemed to be well thought out, but I think the author over hyped the teenage angst and love/drama and it took away from the heart of the story. I couldn't get past it.

While I was unable to get into the book, my sister was so engaged in it that she had me go and buy the next two books in the series immediately. She found it fast-paced, gripping and was hooked on the romance.
