![]() This is a fascinating book, fast paced and engrossing, as the world is familiar, but at the same time laced with a mysterious fearfulness. So off he goes into the wilderness, where he meets someone who shouldn’t exist: a girl. When his thoughts telegraph that experience to his guardians, they fear for his life and make him leave town. On a walk with his dog, Todd senses a “quiet,” a break in the Noise. ![]() ![]() The thoughts are all consuming and never quiet, and are called Noise. There’s a fascinating premise: that men are able to hear all the thoughts of each other and all creatures. It is a dark and dangerous place where religion is used to justify violence and hatred. It is set on a planet called New World, where there are only men, as all women died of a disease years ago. ![]() What did you like about the book? This is a movie tie-in reissue of the 2008 book, which I totally loved. Rating: 1-5 (5 is an excellent or a Starred review) 5 ![]()
