A review by orlaithma
Suicide Club by Rachel Heng
4.0
"In near-future New York, life expectancy averages three hundred years.
Immortality is almost within our grasp.
It's hell."
Suicide Club by Rachel Heng is set in a world where humans are trying, and almost succeeding, to eliminate death. It's such an interesting concept.
It's got aspects of Aldous Huxley's Brave New World and George Orwell's Big Brother yet it still manages to be original. Overall I really enjoyed it.
It's a slow burning page turner and as is to be expected from a sci-fi novel, it relies on your suspending of disbelief in order to fully submerge yourself in the story.
I'm excited to read more from this author!
Thank you to the publisher for sending me a free copy of Suicide Club.
