Look to the Sun | Emmie Mears
2 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
This dystopian masterpiece by Emmie Mears gives a message of hope, acceptance and courage during the worst of times [and] will entrance the reader with its artistic flair, complexity and delivery of raw emotion. (InDTale Magazine). For fifteen years, the National Peoples Voice has ruled in relative peace, quietly snuffing out dissent wherever its found. Silently enforcing their views and doctrine upon the people of Sanmarian as citizens disappear overnight and businesses mysteriously close. Rose Abernethy and Beo Mataya are two strangers drawn together by one thing alone: Red Sunrise. A mysterious book no one else seems to have read. A book only two types of people ever ask aboutcollectors and the National Peoples Voice. A book both Rose and Beo feel was written just for them and that strangely seems to echo what is currently going on in their beloved city. As the facade of calm seethes into violent protests, Rose and Beo are caught in the middle. Drawn into the center of a forgotten tragedy, they discover the book may not only hold the key to the secret of the citys past but also the key to its future.

Good morning my #JuneOfARC littens, and thank you for coming along with me on this journey to work on our NetGalley backlogs!

We‘ve finished the month, and so I‘m wondering if there‘s any old ARC you read that you really want to recommend!

I was actually surprised by how much I enjoyed the tagged book! It ended up being much more hopeful than I had thought!

eskoch28 I spent the whole month fighting with my netgalley app 😭😭😭 but I got an audiobook and a digital book read! I'll make a post afterwhile 6mo

Strangers Rose & Beo come together as their city seethes w/ violence when the National Peoples‘ Voice ramps up their propaganda against the “unnatural degenerates” threatening the city.

Wow! A very powerful read about the encroachment of facism, the strength of community coming together against hate. A sweet poly romance & the power of stories! Everything resolved more easily than I anticipated, but that‘s an allure of fiction right?🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗
