Edens Rise by Tristen Willis
4.0
adventurous challenging reflective medium-paced

Emotions can be hard, even ugly like grief; but what would the world be like if we never got to experience happiness, love, loss, and sorrow?

Eden’s Rise shows us what life would be like without control of our emotions. We follow Ziva and Myall as they start to rebel against The Authority and the NeuroMod devices. They truly risk everything so that the world can have joy and laughter again.

There have been a few times that I’ve wondered what it would be like to not have to feel everything. Tristen did a phenomenal job of building a world just like that and while it makes for a great read, I wouldn't want to live like that.

This book consumed me and I'm so blessed Tristen gave me this ARC.
