Beware the Night
Beware the Night | Jessika Fleck
5 posts | 3 read | 21 to read
On the island of Bellona, they worship the sun. Seventeen-year-old Veda understands that keeping the sun content ensures plentiful crops, peace and harmony, and a thriving economy. But as a member of the Basso class, she never reaps those benefits. Life as a Basso is one fraught with back-breaking work and imposing rules. Her close friendship with Nico is Vedas one saving grace in a cruel world where the division between her people and the ruling Dogio is as wide and winding as the canals that snake through their island. But when Vedas grandfather is chosen as the next sacrificial offering to keep the suns favor, Veda is forced to see the injustice of her world. Turning away from the sun means she must join the nightand an underground revolution shes been taught to fear all her life.

Mehso-so

The actual writing of this book is so-so at times—there were several moments where I‘d felt as though I missed an entire page or where a short, uninteresting dialogue suddenly became important in an unimpressive way. Major incidents/traumas become plot devices rather than human encounters with loss. That being said, the plot itself more than makes up for those slips. It‘s a fun read and definitely well-worth it. Fast-moving plot. Enjoyable 👍🏼

I know how weird this is going to sound but the plot, characters and world development were an absolute hotmess. The entire second half of the book is the girl hoping from scene to scene inbetween two boys and somehow she always accidentally makes out with them. The book also ends in a super weird place and tone...and yes, I'll read the seauel

It is time! 🙌 Hopefully I love. It sounds like it's got some Hunger Games potential which has suddenly spiked my interest with the announcement of the new Hunger Games/Panem book coming in 2020
