I also liked that there was no major uprising in the end, because real change takes time, and I think the book does an amazing job at showing that. It is a remarkable and timely story of the bonds between women, the cost of breaking those bonds, and the courage it. I never knew what was going to happen, and it was very smart the way that they used the Governor’s words against him to back up Tyranny’s excuse. Praise for The Grace Year: 'A visceral, darkly haunting fever dream of a novel and an absolute page-turner.' (Libba Bray, New York Times best-selling author) 'The Grace Year seethes with love and brutality, violence and hope. I also didn’t like that she got cleared of the charges when she got back. I liked that it was with a poacher because it showed us that side of the community, but the fact that she ended up getting pregnant, and she thought she loved him even though they only really knew each other for a few months… just didn’t sit well with me. The ONLY thing I didn’t like, was Spoiler that Tyranny falls in love. I won’t spoil the end, but it’s not the traditional happy ending, and I liked that, because it was realistic! I also loved the political relevance of the topic and the metaphors that could be pulled from this book while reading. I loved this book! It was very good from start to finish and I couldn’t stop listening! (Audiobook) the plot was unique - a mix between the hunger games and the handmaid’s tale - and the characters were realistic!!! There wasn’t a time when I thought that something wouldn’t actually happen in the given situation.
