A review by tehani
Fallout by Gwenda Bond
4.0
I wish 4.5 was a thing because I really really liked this, and the loss of a star is literally for two suspension of disbelief issues I had with the story. Love love LOVED Lois, her family and friends, thought the set up was fab and this concept is great. Highly readable!
But...
Spoilers below...
1. What sort of newspaper editor lets any story, let alone a story by a new baby reporter, go live without his approval? Surely not Perry White!
2. I really did not buy the "pretend to be assimilated" bit. It made no sense. Being part of that hive mind is NOT something that could be faked!
But otherwise, I loved this. Gimme more!
