A review by aldoregan
Thunderhead by Neal Shusterman
5.0
Warning: review is nowhere near as good as the book so i suggest you pick this book up and read it even if my writing makes you want to shove an ice pick in your eye.
ours is a perfect world— but perfection does not linger in one place. it is a firefly, by its very nature elusive and unpredictable.
I read Scythe a year ago and really enjoyed it. It was way better than what I was expecting. After that, I knew that I definitely wanted to continue on with the series. So I picked up Thunderhead and was completely ! mind ! blown ! I wasn’t expecting that to happen. I was so shook wtf. It was such an intense and emotional ride. This trilogy just keeps on surprising me!
Thunderhead just took the whole dystopian genre to a whole new level. This book is insanely brilliant and I’m so happy because it’s been so long since I’ve read a masterful story set in a futuristic, utopian world. It’s safe to say that this book has definitely made it to my top favorites list.
while freedom gives rise to growth and enlightenment, permission allows evil to flourish in a light of day that would otherwise destroy it.
I’ve said before that Scythe is such a philosophical book and I still stand by that. It’s such a thought provoking novel and it really discusses society, life, death, human nature, etc. in such a brilliant way. The fact that Neal Shusterman added the religion parallels makes this even better! I never saw it coming, but I know that it will make a huge turn for the rest of the story.
That last part killed me ! I was literally screaming because I couldn’t believe that ! that ! was ! happening ! I was shaking, you guys! Shaking! And I was also crying! I’m still not over it 😫. I’ve read somewhere that the third book is gonna have a time jump. Probably a year? 10 years? A hundred? Idk but this just makes me so scared for what’s to come.
if we were judged by the things we most regret, no human being would be worthy to sweep the floor.
I can’t believe it took me so long to pick this book up! I won’t be making the same mistake twice. Catch me running to the nearest bookstore when January comes /im just assuming that the book comes out in january, i really dont know when it comes out/
death must exist for life to have meaning.
