I was tagged by Amy to post this fun Book Tag originally created by Cora for Bank Holiday Weekend. It’s August so of course we’ve had rain for most of the weekend, though we did manage to visit West Bay- aka the beach setting used to film BroadChurch– for a few sunny hours on Saturday. As it’s taken me til the end of BH weekend to post my contribution I won’t be tagging folks, but do feel free to join in and credit Cora.
Here we go..

**********
Greetings, to all Pure Women.
You should all be fitted with your new wrist counters. A symbol of your purity and devotion to your family. Life is simpler now. Just 100 words a day.
Your role is in the house. Your husband takes care of everything else.
You’re free.
Instead, you should focus on values of modesty, submission, humility and purity. Love, honour and most importantly, obey. You know the rules. Just one word over 100 and your wrist counter will send 1,000 volts through your body. Choose your words carefully.
You have the right to remain silent.

VOX has been on my wish list for months now, I love a good dystopian, especially feasible ones. The how-it-happened explanations or character rationales can make or break this kind of book for me. I’ve seen a lot of trusted bloggers give high ratings for VOX so I’m hoping it’s well written. I started watching The Handmaids Tale recently and Naomi Alderman – Power is on my TBR for Newts Readathon 2018 so VOX fits perfectly into my current reading interests.
Have you read it? Will you buy it? Which books can’t you wait for?
Let me know..
