Aletheia greek
It is diseased riddled humans Once I really got into the story I couldn t put it down I needed to know what happened even when I was grossed out beyond belief or devastated at what just happened. Awakened empath aletheia luna free pdf book The greatest thing about this read is that Tennant did not shy away from the different cruelties of a situation she centered this story around The way all of her characters developed and dealt with life felt genuine There is no way anyone in this story would not have physical and mental scars And the way all the different kind of relationships and relationship types were written in such a natural way was refreshing They felt like part of the characters and not a result of political correctness and inclusiveness Now there are only a few minor things that pulled me out of the story At times I would be reading and a thought or comment by the character would feel weird and out of place I started to realize that these mostly came into place later in the story when that stray point had a plot point tied into it Then there were times when some words started to feel a little overused It wasn t intolerable.

Wondering what would happen next I never knew what to expect in this story and I think thats what I loved most constantly being shocked or surprised by what big event would take place next I found myself laughing at points and crying in other moments I genuinely felt connected to the story and thats the most important thing for me I remember when I reached page 403 I think it was and I was actually hit with a wave of guilt because I was reading so fast and it was going to be over in about 100 pages I realised then what an excellent book this was the fact that I literally wanted to stop reading because I didn t want it to be over yet is a good sign. Science Fiction aletheian The other part of this novel I absolutely have to address is the incredible cast of characters I truly can t express how fantastic the characters were 736 was of course our strong and dedicated female lead.

This is a New Adult Dystopian novel book 1. Aletheia logo Book Cover 4 All righty so a book with this kind of cover never really grabs my interest especially right off the bat If I saw this book in a store facing me on a shelf I would just keep passing it until one day I m eventually curious enough to find out what it s about BUT But but but I will HIGHLY admire the symbols on the cover Both the iris flower and triangle is the symbol of the religion in the society that we are following in this book Heck the city above where the protagonist lives under is literally called Iris The Prophet A antagonist seems obsessed with the flower and this symbol and I look forward to finding out why when the series continues I know quite a lot of Dystopian novels YA especially go with a symbol that is important to the book and or series as a whole but I think this book made it work a heck of a lot better than many of the ones I ve seen and read. Aletheia meaning Summary Tagline 5 Their is 2 parts of the summary one in the back that is the protagonist talking to you and I love it It hooked me immediately when I saw the character has absolutely no memory of herself who she is nor what she was and that she was forced to make a choice that could either doom her or put her on a leash She may have chosen a leash but she also seems determined to uncover what the heck happened and to finally break free The second is within the dusk jacket that goes into what the book will be about It has been over 2 decades since the virus befell mankind and from all that chaos rose Iris the only city supposedly with the cure to the virus The protagonist was forced to forgo her rights for the cure to be seen as but a resource to Iris nothing Although she and many others have no name no rights no way to live as proper human beings she is willing to fight to save the friends she has made but what else is she willing to do for that freedom This is just a really brief summary version of the second summary but I was still hooked as I wanted to see what kind of society this was compared to some of the other Dystopian novels I ve read so far VERY different. Awakened empath aletheia luna free pdf Characters 5 I m sure some of you are wondering why I haven t included the protagonist s name yet that s because that is what this section is for lol I LOVE ALL THE CHARACTERS IN THIS BOOK With the exceptions of the antagonists I m sure I was never meant to like them lol To be honest I really don t have a character I hate dislike on the protagonist s side First off the character we follow in this book is named 736 yes that is her name and this society she lives in wants to make sure she is nothing but a number She is a strong yet damaged individual She may have scars about her body but she has claws and fangs of her own that she is not afraid to use AND a level head She is not confused when s hits the fan she will try and quickly think of an idea if it will help her out of a jam along with her friends She even has an amazing cast of friends that are almost as damaged as she is 1633 is just a really sweet guy who cares for 736 even though she accidentally caused him pain and anguish from an incident years ago Regardless of what she did he doesn t hate her at all but does feel upset when 736 puts him above all else including herself Also no they don t have a romance this is of a friendship relationship and 736 feeling highly responsible for what happened to him Then we have Arson oh my GOD I love this guy lmao He is funny witty a bit on the crazy side because he is obsessed with fire ANYTHING involving fire In case you are wondering Arson is a name he gave himself his true name from the city of Iris above them has been purposely forgotten and his number I forgot myself because I prefer the name Arson lmao There is also 93 and his girlfriend Rose 93 gave her that name They are the epitome of a ooey gooey romance lol They love each other and 93 would do anything to safeguard Rose s safety and 736 knows this as she loved them both romantically but 93 and Rose didn t reciprocate the same feelings back Then there is the love interest Jason Sigh What can I say about my lovable witty corny rebel lmao He s just all sorts of caring and patient with also a really good head on his shoulders There are characters but I don t want this section to go on for too long just know that I like love many of them lol Now there are a bit of an antagonist thing going on but I m worried one will be a spoiler so I will leave them out The Prophet is one such antagonist a man who apparently foresaw the coming of a virus that wiped the memories of all who came in contact with it regressing them back as violent rabid people that literally can t tell the different between friend and foe He created the protected society of Iris chosen people meant to repopulate the planet in a VERY specific image He may love diversity but physical imperfections is one flaw he will not stand and will have your body harvested to be used in a different manner This is also the same man who created the Division section beneath Iris people meant to serve Iris in again VERY specific ways Technology cleaning scavenging sex working you name it there are 7 Divisions dedicated to specific work only Then we have the new Captain that I wouldn t say is in charge but she definitely makes sure the Division people do what they need to do this woman is out for blood that is all I can say. Aletheia boot World Building 5 Wow Just wow I can tell some real effort got put into this world Although we still reside in the US all traces of what it was is gone because of the Lethe virus the same virus that infected millions into forgetting who and what they are but books from the previous society still remain so not all is forgotten if you are able to adventure out into Depraved infected land Depraved are those infected with the virus They run around using the basic of instincts eat and sleep Traces of what they are are able to break through but unless given a cure they will attack suddenly without warning We also get a look at some of the Division sections and what many of them do some briefly than others AND a look at Iris Those in the Division section are not allowed in Iris no matter what as they are not the Prophet s chosen people to repopulate the planet This society hasn t been around for long it has been over a decade or two but to 736 the day is just not clear to them as those in the Division section are meant for specific things they have no name they have no real life they aren t even seen as people Some Overseer soldiers that watch over them making sure they don t break any rules and such can be nice but there are those that won t hold back their disgust of you for being a Division person Sadly because of Iris s control over the Division people A LOT of information is of course withheld for control purposes even from the citizens of Iris and 736 learns that from Jason her outside rebel friend from Haven There is so much to say but I think I m going to stop here for now lol. Aletheian Story 5 Okay so I was on quite the roller coaster reading this book I laughed I smiled I got angry and I cried like a baby Learning of 736 and learning about the world she lives in was riveting I literally struggled putting this book down as I had adulting to do lol The main character is strong but damaged and highly afraid to show her vulnerable side to anyone really even her best friends She and many others like her have gone through and are still going through quite the traumatic life Although she hates the city of Iris and the people that live in it she is forced to admit that they saved her life from the virus and the crippling fall of old society It was heartbreaking reading what she and many characters had to go through but inspiring to see that they are using their s life to make something of themselves to keep fighting to keep hoping for a better tomorrow and that to me was just amazing Now this book is not without its graphical side as there is characters with a drug addiction issue many characters that have been assaulted physically and sexually 736 herself and the ending OMG that ending I ve never been destroyed by a book before and I mean it I cried so hard so many good characters lost and UGH I m just going to stop here because I feel like crying again lol. Dystopian aletheian Audiobook 4 That s right One of my favorite indie books has an audiobook now and the narrator was pretty great I thought she did amazing conveying the various emotions from a lot of the characters throughout the book Although she sounded a bit stilted in the beginning and there are only so many different voices the narrator can do per character but come chapter 3 or 4 the narrator seriously reeled in those emotions The way how I see it if you can get me to successfully cry in some scenes I d say you did a pretty damn good job. Kindle aletheia greek Over All 5 Over all I m giving this book 5 stars I would happily give this book if I was allowed to lol I went through quite the emotional roller coaster and the writing is just beautiful in my opinion the author really knows how to use her words I also like love every character we meet from 736 to Seth a minor but hugely kind character I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE SECOND BOOK RED RIVER Seriously I want that book in my hands like RIGHT NOW I m kind of in reading limbo at the moment lol don t mean to gush but I love this book that much If you want to give this book a try the first 5 chapters are up on the author s website Go check it out to see if it is right up your alley Aletheia The Seventh River 1 I received this book for an honest review Video Review is safe to say this book had me all over the map with my emotions There is just so much packed into this read and if there is one thing that creeps me out but it did throw me off a bit Now there is so much I can say about the characters the plot and the kittens but some things need to be discovered for yourself Aletheia The Seventh River 1 I had forgotten how much pain a good book can cause. EBook aletheian There is nothing quite like the physical heartache you get when you care about the characters so much and so deeply that their pain becomes your own When you are rooting so hard for two characters that your chest is heavy and empty when they are pulled apart When you are so invested in the character that you are the character and you not only want them to survive but you need them to. Dystopian aletheian The main character was such a well rounded fleshed out person and she couldn t have felt real She had history that began way before the first page relationships long past that bled into the story in an incredibly realistic way. Dystopian aletheiaphobia Besides the astounding characters the plot was profound and remarkably strung together There were twists at every turn both predicted and surprising The worldbuilding was rich and it stood apart from the fad of YA dystopian novels in a wonderful way The stakes were high the consequences were real and the conflicts were multi layered with enemies at both sides of the table I couldn t put the book down. Dystopian aletheiaphobia The one and only issue with Aletheia was that it was poorly edited The errors were at times distracting from the extraordinary quality of the story and it hurt my heart to see such a wonderful novel hindered in such a way Regardless the book was still one of the best I have read in a very long time The prose was captivating easily measuring up to the vast scale of the story it set out to tell I am hanging off the edge of the seat as I anxiously await the sequel Aletheia The Seventh River 1 I received a free PDF version of Aletheia for review However this does not affect the honesty of my review Check out my full video review here is about a post apocalyptic community Iris fighting for their survival against the diseased world outside Their population is divided into seven divisions of specialized labor though a new mysterious eighth has been announced at the beginning of the book Our protagonist 736 each division member is given a number rather than a name is in division seven the fighters who actually go outside to scavenge supplies and kill diseased people whom they call the depraved The purpose of division six is only hinted and it took me a long time to figure it out The other divisions purposes are not even implied During one of her missions outside 736 encounters uninfected people who make her begin to question the facts she is given in Iris. Aletheia greek Frankly this book is about twice as long as it needs to be The first 150 ish pages could have been cut almost entirely and the story wouldn t have missed them It moves at a consistently slow pace even during action scenes The narrative is padded with redundant description and questions from the protagonist Pretty much every situation is set up specifically to showcase the protagonist as a strong character but then she falls in love and becomes completely pitiful whenever she is in her lover s presence Aletheia is the first book in The Seventh River series and it does not hold much weight on its own Tennant creates a world knowing it will be destroyed by the end of the first book and the result is an underdeveloped setting I do think that Tennant has a lot of potential as a writer I m definitely interested to see where she goes after what I read from Aletheia story wise and may continue the series but unfortunately the writing falls short Aletheia The Seventh River 1 Aletheia follows a young woman only known by her number 736 She lives with the other numbered and nameless people in an underground compound In exchange for the cure to the awful disease which has ravaged the human population she gets to live as a slave working to support the utopian city above ground. Awakened empath aletheia luna free pdf book The settings in Aletheia are beautifully described and intricately detailed There s everything from breathtaking cities to crumbling sewers crawling with zombie like people infected with the disease. Aletheia logo All of the characters are dynamic and complex ranging from the pyromaniac Arson who fiercely loves the people around him to the soft spoken and delicate Rose whose internal strength is greater than steel I found that I connected deeply with all of the characters and felt every ounce of emotional turmoil that 736 went through. Aletheian This isn t a simple story of an oppressive evil government There are a few different factions at work in Aletheia all of which do the best they can to protect their own people Sometimes that means they work together but a lot of times it means they re at odds. Aletheia logo From action packed fight scenes with the zombie like depraved to heart wrenching moments when 736 can t find a way to save the ones she loves Aletheia has everything to keep you reading until the very end This isn t just an excellent debut it s an excellent book period For anyone who enjoys dystopian or post apocalyptic stories Aletheia is a must read Aletheia The Seventh River 1

Dystopian aletheian com content warnings Aletheia The Seventh River 1 Note I received this book in exchange for an honest review however all thoughts and opinion are my own I really enjoyed this book I must say I was a tad bit nervous going in because I haven t been able to find any good dystopian stories lately but this one delivered I thought the world building was one of the strongest elements because it really is so hard these days to construct a dystopian society without it being compared to bigger classics like the Hunger Games Divergent or Legend But the world was unique and I enjoyed learning and about it as I read on The plot was engaging and fast paced I will say there were some predictable moments but overall I enjoyed the twists and turns that continued up until the end The characterization of this book was also on point everyone had a distinct personality and I could actually picture these being real people I didn t think the characters resonated that much with me until I got to the climax and realized how much I wanted them all to survive and make it out ALSO THE MAIN CHARACTER OF THIS BOOK IS A BI GIRL AND THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY It s been one of my goals of 2017 to read books with diverse women in them so it was a pleasant surprise to see that the main character wasn t another straight white girl like every other dystopian main character Also there was a good amount of diversity of sexual orientations among the side characters which was also nice to see Another point on diversity that I need to mention is that I loved how the main character didn t overcome her fears easily The author didn t shove aside the character s limitations when it was convenient but instead wove those into the story in a way that was really realistic Sorry if that doesn t make sense but I don t want to spoil anything lol Overall I would recommend this book if you are looking for a new dystopian You will enjoy this if you like darker books with strong resilient characters and solid world building On a side note this book does contain possible triggers for sexual assault and one brief scene with self harm Aletheia The Seventh River 1 Aletheia by Megan Tennant SPOILER FREE REVIEW I was sent an Arc ebook copy of this in exchange for a free and honest review Its been four days since I finished this incredible book and I m still reeling To say I m in desperate need for book two in The Seventh River series titled Red River is an absolute understatement This story is full of action mystery love and conspiracy and I truly adored every moment of this book Aletheia follows the story of 736 a young Nameless woman forced to do unthinkable things made to live an unbearable life and told what to do think and say throughout it all Yet despite that she remains strong and stubbornly determined proving that she is indeed a force to be reckoned with. Aletheia meaning The plot is one of intrigue and originality which we find out through the eyes of 736 as she navigates the new world nearly two decades after so many humans succumbed to the disease sweeping across the planet the disease that left people without a single memory of their past life besides whispers and fleeting moments Lethe Now those that are left live within the confines of Iris safe and determined to begin again. Aletheia meaning It is here that our story begins as 736 races against the clock to free her people evidently allowing her loved ones the chance to know how to live for themselves instead of for those above. Dystopian aletheia greek How much is 736 willing to sacrifice for revenge against her captors For those she cares about For freedom Everything has a cost what would you be willing to pay I have so much to say about the plotline of this book but I feel like you should be left to find out for yourselves how incredible this novel was What I will say though is that it was addictive different and at times crazy in a totally good way and every time I would reach the end of a chapter I d tell myself Just one then I ll sleep Of course then every time I was forced to actually put the book down I spent all my time wanting to pick it back up While I was at work or packing because I was in the middle of moving houses I found my mind would constantly drift back to 736 and her story but even the side characters were strong in their own ways Not just strong but loyal loving kind caring the list goes on These guys are all in it together they have made a family with each other because they are all they have Not only that though but because they are family they would do anything for each other and that becomes evident when we see the lengths they go to to ensure the survival of the Nameless their people I love seeing the emotional rollercoaster these characters go on not because I like seeing them sad but because its so real so true and I really appreciated that. Aletheia meaning In addition to all that wonderfulness Megan Tennant has an honest gift with words I adored her writing style and enjoyed the way she described things and set her scenes I liked the way she wrote the dialogue making it feel realistic I also really liked her short and to the point style By this I mean she writes what s important In a few novels I ve read recently I ve noticed authors go into detail describing every little thing and this is usually the point in which I start to get bored Tennant however jumps straight into a scene ensuring the reader is right there then she will back track to explain whatever is necessary for the reader to know That is something I do in my own writing which perhaps is why I noticed and appreciated it immensely The ONLY negative thing I have to say about Aletheia and in all honesty its not really a big deal at all but its just that there was this one word that Tennant used over and over probably nearly once every chapter sometimes and it kinda became a little distracting after a while I wont say what word because then you ll look out for it haha Its truly not a huge issue and it didn t alter my enjoyment of the story at all Besides that I have absolutely no qualms about this novel All in all I think its pretty safe to say I am addicted to this series already and am so excited for book two The wait will be hard but I will survivei hope I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a unique story of adventure action love heartache and of course conspiracy I gave Aletheia a 4. Dystopian aletheia digital 5 out of 5 stars Please go pick it up as soon as possible it s out now Aletheia The Seventh River 1 I I don t usually like dystopian and I don t like reading about plagues and also the fact that the city is named Iris is weirding me out but also I ve been following the author for ages and EVERY TIME she talks about it I just NEED to read it because it sort of sounds amazing Even though I hate plagues and dystopians Okay but actually I DO think I ll like this despite not being a fan of the genre Aletheia The Seventh River 1 This book was of a 3. Aletheian 75 stars for me so I rounded up I ll post my full review written here when I upload a review video to my channel Aletheia The Seventh River 1 We all ask for honesty but none of us really wants it Aletheia p.

Aletheia meaning 736 AKA Kitten Commander is a Kick ass heroine with as many shades of gray as you can imagine She will make you question every aspect of your life and of that is not relatable IDK what the hell is 2 Love Interest Jason You are a beautiful kind of a mess Jason p 230.
