Wow. Didn’t expect that.

Great twist!!

@ellette-giselle

So there’s two rebellions? Didn’t realize that.

@ellette-giselle

Well. That was sad.

Poor Amber… and poor Ron. 😢

So was Nathan one of the rebels? And did 210’s explanation mean that the government is on to them? I wasn’t sure if I was reading that right.

@grcr Ok, 🙁 I’ll keep praying

Asking for prayers for myself and my family. My brother’s leaving for college on Friday. 🥺 My parents will drive him down then and the rest of us siblings will stay with my grandparents over the weekend. I’m trying to be excited for him, and I genuinely am, but I’m also going to miss him a lot. He’ll be all the way in Florida (we live in Ohio), so…[Read more]

@rae @grcr Any updates?

@ellette-giselle

Good chapters. Nice touch of action towards the end! And that was a good cliffhanger. 😬

Really, I don’t mind if you don’t want to talk about it, I just thought you wanted to.

@linus-smallprint

I understand what you’re saying about personal conviction. I believe God is still with you anyway.

I’m trying to respectfully discuss the conviction itself, since you have argued the rebellion in Ellette’s book is a problem. You challenged the morality. You already put morality on the table. Thus, I was under the assum…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Is a POV blind spot bad?

Nah, not really. Depends on how you handle it. Females are 50% of the population and many of them must be firstborns. We know very little about them. It’s a world building thing, and you’ve had to choose where to spend your effort, so it’s not surprising you haven’t included them.

If you wanted to, all…[Read more]

@theshadow

Yeah, it’s pretty cool!

And if you don’t enjoy rock, that’s fine. Sometimes certain genres bothers a person and they don’t know why. It’s just a fact of their life. Many country songs rub me off the wrong way, and I don’t know why. 🤷‍♀️

You might have to explain what that thing is though XD.

Synesthesia? That’s where a person has de…[Read more]

*Cries in a corner*

I do like how in this book, we’re getting to see the perspective of one of the soldiers.

True.

It is also true, I forgot. We only have one female character so far. Other than what I call “extras.” And she isn’t from the city, so we have a POV blind spot, so to speak.

@keilah-h

Huh. I guess that would make sense.

Ellette, if that’s true, maybe make that clearer?

@hybridlore I think the girls are taken but not to be soldiers. More like strategists and informants.

@ellette-giselle ^^

Yes, I think he’s going to do that.

I do like how in this book, we’re getting to see the perspective of one of the soldiers. This is a strong part of the world building, so it’s nice to get a deeper look into it.

Is it just boys who are taken, or are there girls too? Because I feel like you might have mentioned something about there being a girl at the rehab center but I hav…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I commented after I finished the third one. 🙃

@whalekeeper @keilah-h @linus-smallprint

Alright, we’ll see if he responds!

@ellette-giselle

Wow. This is getting intense.

Good chapters!
