Eve: The Awakening by Jenna Moreci
Did not finish book. Stopped at 6%.
I'll give Jenna this, she's at least made progress comparing EVE to TSC, unless the change in voice is because one is more real world and one is fantasy.
I tried reading through the three free chapters on her website and I just can't.
They're in university, 80 years from now, where aliens are wreaking havoc and there's some really thinly veiled racism metaphor for a new human race, and yet there are "mean girls" saying things like "cuh-ray-zee" and the whole thing sounds more like a poorly written THE CLIQUE fanfic than an actual sci-fi novel.
Like, I would rather reread THE CLIQUE and deal with the massive wave of second hand embarrassment at rereading my favorite series from middle school that read this book in it's entirety.
Again, the improvement is clear. But yikes.
