Narration To Books Eve (Eve #1)
Where do you go when nowhere is safe?Sixteen years after a deadly virus wiped out most of Earth's population, the world is a perilous place. Eighteen-year-old Eve has never been beyond the heavily guarded perimeter of her school, where she and two hundred other orphaned girls have been promised a future as the teachers and artists of the New America. But the night before graduation, Eve learns the shocking truth about her school's real purpose and the horrifying fate that awaits her.
Fleeing the only home she's ever known, Eve sets off on a long, treacherous journey, searching for a place she can survive. Along the way she encounters Arden, her former rival from school, and Caleb, a rough, rebellious boy living in the wild. Separated from men her whole life, Eve has been taught to fear them, but Caleb slowly wins her trust... and her heart. He promises to protect her, but when soldiers begin hunting them, Eve must choose between true love and her life.
In this epic new series, Anna Carey imagines a future that is both beautiful and terrifying.

Ive just finished reading Eve and it was amazing.So touching and heartbreaking.I loved it.I coudnt put this book down and I didnt want it to end.I just cant wait for the next novel.Eve by Anna Carey is light on the world-building as dystopias go. Its not one of those books that offer an incisive commentary on some aspect of our existing culture. Its more, heres a setting where things suck; now we have a backdrop for a romance/adventure story. Thats not inherently bad. It just makes it a fluffy read, rather than a chilling one. Eve doesnt possess the depth of books like Margaret Atwoods The Handmaids Tale (which Carey quotes in the front matter) or George Orwells 1984 or
Instant Dystopia: Now With 50% Less Logic!Start with your randomly selected future date at room temperature. Add an ambiguous Plague (capitalised is best). Stir briefly to create a drastic population reduction, thereby ensuring wombs are a hot commodity in your new society. Heavily indoctrinate your characters to keep them in line and create exploitative scenarios, especially for teenagers. Insert an Improbable and Unexplained System of Government. Got Plausibility Problems? Just add Romance!
[September 23rd, 2015] MINI RANT REVIEW WARNING2.5 stars.This was a slightly dull and painful read, I blame the Dystopian YA plague that has affect books for a while now. There's just too many of them and it's hard to get a little bit of diversity or rather unpredictability. Because let's face it, it's a Dystopian--the world *is* screwed up, massively! It's just how it's built upon and unfolds for the reader that makes the journey a bit different, also helps if you have an awesome cast
It wasn't a bad start. Will see how it continues.
This review shares a lot of early plot detail you might not want to know before reading the book.On the eve of her graduation from School, Eve believes a golden future awaits her. At the top of her class, awarded the Medal of Achievement, she looks across the lake to the high blank wall of the building next door, where she and all the other girls at School will live for four years while they learn the trade of their choice, making them into contributing citizens for the King's City of Sand in
For being a young adult book, I really enjoyed this story. Yes, there were times that I wanted to slug Eve for the stupid decisions she made but I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt because of how innocent and naive she was raised....but....come on....some things were just unforgivable. I got on this genre by spending my whole weekend watching The 100 episodes from the beginning and just had to read more stories like it.Am I going to read the next book in this series? I'm not sure
