Stunning world building and lovable characters !
Revisado: 04-20-25
When I started this book, I wondered if it would be as I have found some YA books to be, a bit corny and not fleshed out enough. Let me tell you, that was NOT the case! This book ranks in my top favorites for the year so far for many reasons. To begin with, the author spent so much time building the world and fleshing out the plot that I was completely immersed in with the help of a fantastic narrator, she brought to life a compelling story that had me listening to it from start to finish with NO breaks. The characters in Predestined are so relatable and lovable that I’m clasping my hands together in prayer that this will be the first in a long series of books. I need to know how their story continues!
The bad guys in this story had all of the right traits to make them easy to hate, and interesting enough to make you want to know more about them.
The plot itself is absolutely fabulous. It has a group of people fighting against the system, while learning more about themselves along the way and forming bonds that will last a lifetime.
I truly believe this could be the start of an amazing new series resonant of Harry Potter by JK Rowling or Shelter by Harlan Cohen. No matter if you’re an adult or a teen, you will find great enjoyment when reading Predestined. I know I did. I can’t wait to see where this story goes !
A special note to the narrator : it is in great part because of you that this cast of characters was so beautifully brought to life. Well done on giving each of them their own voice and mannerisms and adding such an eloquent touch to an already amazing story.
