Dana (24 KP) rated The Eleventh Plague in Books
Mar 23, 2018
I got this book in high school about six years ago and decided to finally give it a read. It was just starting at me from my shelf with it's sad eyes, so I had to give in.
This was a pretty interesting dystopia. I liked the world building and the idea of the eleven plagues to wipe out humanity. It was pretty well written and even though it was short, there was a lot of story involved in the pages. It felt like it was rushed. A lot of stuff happens in such a short amount of time that does not allow for the characters to really flourish in the book for me. I think that is the main problem I had with this book
It's been a while since I read it, so I don't remember much of the plot which is kind of a problem for me. I think I will look into more of what Jeff Hirsch has written because I want to try out another book of his to get a feel for the writing style.
Overall, not too bad of a book. I just wish I remembered more of it.

Slow burner
I read a lot of great reviews about this, but I found it as a very slow burner and I didn't always quite understand what was going on. I felt like I was missing something, the film was certainly missing something. I guess you could say there was an air of unease but that's it.

Sucked me in immediately
I loved the book. Totally sucked me in and I couldn't put it down due to all the wonderful twists and turns in this book. However I must admit I was a bit disappointed in the ending. Like the previous reviewer, I was left wanting a bit more.

I loved this book!!
I believe I have read all the books in this series and I was curious when Gen would get her own story. This story can be read as a stand alone I think, it mentions previous events but not in a way that make you confused :)
I highly recommend reading this book (and series).

Dark twist on a classic story
Fantastic take on a classic novel
Just read it! seriously!
I had this book bought for me by my SO because he knows I love Alice in Wonderland, so I wasn't really sure what to expect from this book. I definitely wasn't expecting to love it, but I did, I honestly couldn't put it down.
I love books with a bit of a dark twist, especially classic lit like Poe. If you love the classics and dark literature then this book is for you. Henry takes all the characters you love from Wonderland and makes them new and sinister. It's a fantastic take on a classic novel and I cannot recommend it enough.
I recommend book 2 in the chronicles too!
