After The End by Amy Plum

Mixed feelings on this. The plot actually doesn't sound that great to me. But it's Amy Plum! I loved her Die For Me series.
She’s searching for answers to her past. They’re hunting her to save their future.
World War III has left the world ravaged by nuclear radiation. A lucky few escaped to the Alaskan wilderness. They've survived for the last thirty years by living off the land, being one with nature, and hiding from whoever else might still be out there.
At least, this is what Juneau has been told her entire life.
When Juneau returns from a hunting trip to discover that everyone in her clan has vanished, she sets off to find them. Leaving the boundaries of their land for the very first time, she learns something horrifying: There never was a war. Cities were never destroyed. The world is intact. Everything was a lie.
Now Juneau is adrift in a modern-day world she never knew existed. But while she's trying to find a way to rescue her friends and family, someone else is looking for her. Someone who knows the extraordinary truth about the secrets of her past.

See, I'm the opposite. The plot sounds good but I wasn't a fan of Plum's other series. Still, it's on my TBR list!

OMG I am so waiting to read this too! I love evrything apocalypse-like and this just seems like an awesome plot! ^^
ReplyDeleteAwesome pick!
I wanted to love this book. I truly did. I felt the same way - I adore Amy's REVENANTS series, but this book just fell horribly off and flat to me. *sigh*
