The Archived
by V.E. Schwab
I loved this book so much. I bought it because it sounded very very different from anything I've ever read and I was not disappointed. It's such a new an interesting idea. Schwab managed to draw me in and make me feel so much for the main character. I hurt with her over her loss of her brother and I wept with her over they betrayals she experienced.
Mackenzie is a bad ass main character but not unbelievably so. She can take care of herself and whereas she can be hesitant to accept help I understood that it was a part of her being a Keeper and being required to so thoroughly close herself off. Her strength was believable because she was strong in spite of the pain she was dealing with. She still felt, she still hurt, and you could tell it was likely written in her eyes but she powered through the pain. She existed despite the agony of her loss. That to me was very admirable and something a lot of people can easily understand.
I can easily relate to her. She has to play different roles and adapt to who she is needed to be at the time. This is something most of us can relate to. You have different roles to play for different people in different situations. Everything about this book was right for me. You simply have to read it. You won't regret it. It's just the right amount eerie and beautiful.
