"I swallow, hard. Doc is a good man, but his answer to everything is always medicine. He doesn't like emotion, any emotion. He prefers things quiet, controlled." - Across the Universe by Beth Revis
Taglines: "What does it take to survive aboard a spaceship fueled by lies?" & "Across the Universe is Titanic meets Brave New World."
Thoughts: So far I am completely engrossed. The people are sheep, they lost communication with Earth during "the plague", and the creative people seem to be confined to a ward. I couldn't put this down if I wanted to.
You know, as many times as I've seen that cover & I've never actually gotten it... today for some reason it finally clicked. UGH!
ReplyDeleteThis looks really good - I LOVED BNW! Maybe I should pull that one to read again. I can't wait to read Across the universe
I total have to second what Gina just said, I didn't care so much about this book so much, but now? I can't wait to read it! It's the cover and all those people that are so super excited about this book! Thanks for this teaser :-))
