After the End by Amy Plum

After the End (After the End, #1)How could you do that to us in the end, Ms. Plum? And now we have to wait a whole year before the next one? Seriously though, this was a great read which I read practically in one sitting. I was not only upset about the way that it ended, but I was sad that it had actually come to an end. Juneau is one great character, and I very much will be reading her next adventure. Miles is pretty great too. I love the dual POVs, and believe it or not, the voices actually sounded different. I feel like this book really raised more questions than it answered. If your looking for closure and a nicely wrapped up plot, this book will not be for you. I have a terrible memory when it comes to books so I will probably forget what happened in this book before the next one comes out. Sometimes I just fake it until the author drops clues as to what happened in the previous book, but this one is one that I will definitely want to re-read.



I really felt like this book was asking us to delve deeper into faith and its roots.  Is faith a valid reaction to something that you have experienced in the past even if you have been lied to about the faith?  I loved how Juneau arrives at her own answer to these questions.  She has been lied to about everything in her life, but she examines piece by piece her belief system and comes to her own conclusions.

There is some language including a few f-bombs, but nothing sexual beyond a kiss.
