The Moon Dwellers by David Estes

5.0

I've been wanting to read a David Estes book for ages! I finally get my hands on this one, and after I start he sends me a copy of Slip (which I'm reading right now!!!) In any case, I loved Moon Dwellers, just like I hoped I would. It's so different than most of the dystopian type books out there right now. I haven't seen any evidence of a love triangle, and the world he created is so vastly different than what's been portrayed before. I love the idea of levels of earth coinciding with levels of "class" in the new world after an apocalyptic event. I also love someone higher up in the government getting involved right away on the right side. The pace is fast too, it's the kind of story that you have difficulty putting the book down because you just MUST know what's going to happen next. And the love story involved is so sweet and innocent and being a middle aged woman, I love getting the opportunity to read stories that give me butterflies like I felt when I met my husband. I'm definitely looking forward to moving onto the next book in the series...just as soon as I finish Slip!
