Afterworlds by Scott Westerfeld

5.0

I really enjoyed this book with it's alternating chapters. A book about a writer (Darcy) writing a book about a character called Lizzie, which once you get used to the concept is great. And the edits that Darcy makes then appear in the following chapters of the book she is writing about Lizzie. So not only do you get a great story,but you also get an insight into the writing process as well. During Darcy's tory she writes a sequel, which you are then dying to read, although the book was only a story within a story, and not the 'real' book! Wonder whether Scott Westerfeld will give us a sequel to both stories, Darcy and Lizzie's - I do hope so. An enjoyable read - both stories.
