The Immortalists by Chloe Benjamin

4.0

---

This book was fascinating. It gives us an insight how we can bear our life when you brought a premonition within yourself, It is like a virus, you have to search on your way being selfish to prolong your death date. The author, Chloe, has an interesting way to illustrate all of the four characters one by one, started from the youngest to the oldest. The design is looking from their age and gender, also the way of their mind interprets to their action. Chloe is also smart to separate the religion and philosophy, she tried to combines them that resulted “death is not death after all”, “Everything that lives must die”. We can imagine when Varya researched a medicine to make the monkey can live double from their age. Chloe made an impacted and conflicted in a debate when Varya and her mom said “We are kids, something fears hang on the thought, why you believed it too?”

Anyway, this a new way book and it’s wonderful of Jews Tradition. It’s not like any chapter book. So you have to try this new story design!
