A review by aslowreader
Ark by Veronica Roth

4.0

"She wished she could have told him that life was already full of dread, no matter who you were. That there was nothing you could have that you couldn’t one day lose. That autumn always gave way to winter, but it was her favorite time of year—those fleeting bursts of beauty before the branches went bare."

this story also really spoke to me. i was a little disappointed with the ending, which is why this isn't a five-star review, but honestly the writing was so beautiful and the narrative so thought-provoking that it's still worth four stars in my eyes. i especially loved the author's descriptions of and focus on plants throughout the story. i will be reading more by this author in the future.
