A review by geniesurreal
Across the Universe by Beth Revis

5.0

I loved this book from the very beginning. The language is clear and flows freely in my mind. It's easy to understand and when the plot gets good I didn't stumble on weird phrasing or lack of.
Revis goes in depth with her writing. Talking about how it was like to be frozen for centuries and awakening into a whole new world.
The beginning threw me off a little. I wasn't expecting the chapters to alternate between Amy and Elder. Once I figured out what was going on the story became clear again.
I ate this series up. I ate up the action, the "lord of the flies" feel, the romance, the betrayal. I think I read the entire series in 4 weeks (which is fast for such a slow reader like myself).
I promise you, you will love this book!
I've read The Hunger Games and thought I'd never find another remarkable story like Collin's. Then I found Legend written by Marie Lu. Legend sweaped me off my feet and made me forget all about Katniss and Peeta. After feeling like I have climbed the to the peek of amazing books I land on Across the Universe and now all I can think about is Amy and Elder.
