I was drawn into this story from the first lines:
'If mom ever found out I was sitting outside of Foretoken, she would kill me. Like, legit hide-my-body-in-a-deep-dark-grave kind of kill me.'
Evie, the seventeen-year-old main character, is likable and her thoughts, actions and dialogue feel authentic. And her description of Luc was enough to make my heart pitter-patter.
I love this author’s strong, witty, and engaging writer’s voice, and the first person narration draws me in with ease. I was so tuned in, in fact, that I wasn’t even turned off by the mention of aliens. I’m not a fan of the fantasy or sci-fi genres, but the writing is so charming I couldn’t stop reading.
I sense there will be a deep, meaningful theme to this story, judging from the following lines:
'There was a reason why the Luxen were comfortable coming here. Foretoken was welcoming to everyone, no matter their sexuality, gender, race…or species. They weren’t a human-only establishment, which was rare nowadays when it came to privately owned businesses.'
I definitely want to read more. I’m delighted with this story so far!
