Reviews

[Kristen · Rating 5 out of 5]

If you are looking for a story that will give you all the feels, this is it! It will make you laugh, tear up, annoyed, excited, maybe surprised, also a bit creeped out, sad, and happy. I'm sure there are other feels I'm forgetting! The end made it worth it all!

"Like many things, the old tales are a container for truth. Stories are like baskets, woven with intricate language and beautiful ornaments to deliver truth to their recipient. Or like a tapestry, whose core of warp and weft runs strong and true throughout, though threads of mere adornment all but hide their existence."

I am grateful for this container of truth!

I have read this book... a lot of times. And I love it so much. I've been waiting to write a review until I have words for it, but honestly, just read it. It's the perfect easy, yet meaningful read. Go brew a cup of tea or coffee, sit down, and meet the most lovable control freak and see what it means to be loved on purpose - even if you're the last person on earth.

Elicia Johnson’s ‘Endling’ is everything you could wish for in a spiritual, high-concept, steampunk adventure. With vivid imagery, memorable characters, and unique worldbuilding that continues to surprise, this is one novel you’d be a fool to miss out on. You won’t be able to put it down!

This book is very easy to get into and the plot is easily followed. I enjoyed reading it, though I do think that the characters could have been fleshed out a little bit more. A good read though!
