The Water Walls
The Water Walls | Ilana Markarov
1 post | 2 read
One island, dangerous on the outside, surrounded by walls of Tsunami turbulating in place, The Water Walls. Dangerous on the inside, wildlife beyond anyone's imagination, especially after sunset, the villagers lock themselves up in their tree huts. Their motto for anyone remaining outside after sunset? "Forgive, Forget, and Move On." One girl, Isla, questions whether she was born inside of a prison, especially with the village's rulers, The Triple Force, always on her back about the wedding competition, a competition where both men and women fight to wed someone they don't love. Isla looks for a way off of the island every day, not realizing that she is always a step closer to learning the truth behind "Forgive, Forget, and Move On." A great fantasy and romance read for fans of The Maze Runner, Divergent, and The Hunger Games of a dystopian world mixed with a new element: philosophy, packed with philosophical messages that will have you transform your thinking by the end.

5/5 Love it! A total re-read! This books is about a strong female warrior that goes against a controlling society while trying to survive insane beasts on an island. It's simply amazing, insightful, and really had me thinking about things. The characters are deep and well written.As soon as I finished it,I really missed the world and the characters and just had to re-read it again. If you've read Hunger Games,Divergent,Maze Runner, it's for you!
