We

Evgenii Ivanovich Zamiatin

Sinopsis

We, written by Russian author Evgenii Ivanovich Zamiatin, is a groundbreaking dystopian novel that explores the concept of a totalitarian society where individuality is suppressed in favor of collective unity. The book, originally published in 1924, serves as a precursor to other famous dystopian works such as George Orwell's 1984 and Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. Zamiatin's distinctive literary style combines elements of satire, science fiction, and political commentary to create a thought-provoking and timeless story. The novel is presented in the form of diary entries by the protagonist, D-503, offering readers a unique and intimate glimpse into the protagonist's inner thoughts and struggles. Through vivid imagery and allegorical storytelling, Zamiatin paints a vivid picture of a society under constant surveillance and control, challenging readers to contemplate the dangers of conformity and the importance of individual freedom. Evgenii Ivanovich Zamiatin's own experiences living under a repressive regime in early 20th-century Russia undoubtedly influenced his writing of We, making it a poignant and relevant read for those interested in exploring themes of government oppression and the struggle for personal identity. This novel is a must-read for fans of dystopian literature and those interested in delving into the complexities of human nature and societal control.

Afflicted

CK Sorens

Hope was dangerous for the Trimarked girl.
It’s been five weeks since Nicu saved Ember from being overcome by the power of the Veil. Since then, she has lived under the threat of discovery from those who fear her growing power.
Ember already balances on a fine line between accident and purpose; using her power intentionally will certainly bring the wrath of human, Witch and Fae alike. Though she doesn’t belong anywhere, she’s not willing to become a prisoner to any of the factions.
When a Witch Queen arrives in Trifecta with the goal to enslave the minds and bodies of magic users, Ember must take a different path: use without control. As the Queen gathers new followers, Ember may not have a choice whether she’ll expose her newfound strength if it means saving the few people she dares to call friends.
Ember has to rely on the one truth she has ever known: Fighting is her best feature.

Praise for Trimarked - book 1 in the Trimarked series:
Enemies become friends as friends become enemies in the engaging tale of Trimarked. Sorens seamlessly blends loyalty, bias, deception, and mystery into her page turning urban fantasy. I quickly became invested in the characters and look forward to adding the upcoming second book of the series, Afflicted, to my TBR.
So well written, I enjoyed this a lot. The characters are rich and developed. The setting is deep and detailed and I love how the three aspects intermingled. I will be awaiting the next part!
