Eve by Anna Carey

Eve by Anna Carey

"I knew, perhaps with more certainty than I knew anything else, that this was a good man."

This is a fun new dystopian series that reminds me of the Birthmarked series by Caragh O'Brien. 

Maybe not my favorite but you should check it out if you're a fan of "end-of-the-world-books." I would recommend  Unwind by Neil Shusterman, Divergent by Veronica Roth, or Birthmarked by Caragh O'Brien instead.



From the publisher: The year is 2032, sixteen years after a deadly virus—and the vaccine intended to protect against it—wiped out most of the earth’s population. The night before eighteen-year-old Eve’s graduation from her all-girls school she discovers what really happens to new graduates, 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 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.
