Shades of Treason

Anomaly by Krista McGee

☆☆☆☆

I enjoyed this book. This is the first Christian dystopian I've read. It has more like a sci-fi feel to it. It is refreshing to see a dystopian about God. I like the main character Thalli and like John who introduces the Designer to her. There's a slight love triangle, but it didn't amount to anything. The only complaints I have is the slow pacing and the little to no action. It kind of makes the book seem a bit bland, but it was nice getting to see all the advanced technologies and hear about God. I wish more Christian books like these existed.

PROS
▪dystopian-sci-fi about God
▪interesting technology
▪Characters Thalli and John

CONS
▪slow pacing
▪little to no action
▪immediate, undying belief in God

Quotes:

“I exhale, not realizing I have been holding my breath.”

“But maybe making things easy isn't part of His plan.”

“I love you, Thalli.” Berk whispered the words in my ear, and I repeated them to him.”

“Death is inevitable. But I do not fear it. I am ready.”

“No. I will die the way I finally learned to live. Fully aware. At peace. With a heart so full of love that even as it slows, it is still full.”
