This week, Cheyenne recommends a few sci-fi, and fantasy works that she thinks you should read. Let's get pages ahead!
The three novels referenced are listed below:
🌎 More Than This by Patrick Ness - Seth, an adolescent who believes he is dead, awakens in what he considers to be his own living hell. Seth is unaware of what is happening at his boyhood home. Everything in his former neighborhood appears to have been abandoned for years, and he appears to be utterly alone. The surroundings are overgrown and dusty, but the oddest aspect is the memories. Nearly everything is connected to Seth's younger brother and his deepest secrets, which were no longer mysteries when he passed away, which are the things he appears to be avoiding the most. What was so terrible that Seth's family traveled across the ocean to escape it? Answers emerge until Seth meets Regine and Tomasz, who also assert their deaths. New questions arise. Everything leaves them thinking, that there has to be more than this.
