Rendition In Pursuance Of Books Scythe (Arc of a Scythe #1)
Thou shalt kill.A world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery. Humanity has conquered all those things, and has even conquered death. Now scythes are the only ones who can end life—and they are commanded to do so, in order to keep the size of the population under control.
Citra and Rowan are chosen to apprentice to a scythe—a role that neither wants. These teens must master the “art” of taking life, knowing that the consequence of failure could mean losing their own.

5, I am dead now and this review is my eulogy, never has a rating been easier stars!!!Full review along with a recipe for my Mimi's chicken noodle soup on my blog Recipe & a Read!Christina Loeffler (Jones) Born: September, 21 1989. Died: November, 6 2018. Cause of Death: Scythe by Neal Shusterman.Ok, ok, all jokes aside Im obviously not dead because I still have to finish the second installment of this series! However, this book SLAYED me with its sheer magnificence and brilliance. TheRe-Read on Audio because the 2nd books comes soon =) Here's the youtube video of the book. It's pretty awesome! SCYTHEI freaking love this book!Citra and Rowen are two teenagers who get the pleasantry of meeting the honorable Scythe Faraday. No one wants to run into a scythe, much less talk to one or spend any kind of time with one. They have the ability to kill you if they see fit. That is their duty. But Citra and Rowan had the chance to meet this particular scythe and they were both not very
OOP. This was our February buddy read on Instagram, and I finished the entire book before the month technically started. 😳😳😳 Needless to say, this was impossible to put down, and I'm itching to sneak off and start Thunderhead immediately. If for some reason you haven't read this series yet, may I humbly recommend the audio version? Greg Tremblay is an incredible narrator and brought the reading of this story to the next level.
So this book is basically just about murder. Exciting! All I want to do is say "MURDER, JOHN" like Sherlock wood, so imagine me doing that. Anyway! I had super high expectations for this because every blogger, bookworm, and semi-literate fish I know has raved over it. I also love Challenger Deep and Unwind a LOT, so I knew this was going to be excellent!+ It's a dystopian with this perfect world where there is no death: so some people become scythes to keep the balance.This is a very cool
Human: Did you hear that? Me: Yeah, that was just the sound of my expectations shattering on the concrete after jumping from the tenth floor. *Sighs* Where do I even start? Somebody please explain the hype to me because I honestly dont get it. Usually when I dislike a popular book, I can at least see why other people might enjoy it. This time however, I do not see it. Okay! Before anyone bites my head off, let me just explain everything I disliked about the book. The writing style "Rowan let
I struggled with rating Scythe because I initially liked the concept. A post-mortality society sounded interesting, but I just can't overlook how boring it was. I'm someone who finishes the average YA book in a couple of days, and this one was a painful week-long process.In this future world, natural death is a thing of the past. The Internet is an all-powerful sentient being called the Thunderhead and all knowledge has been acquired. There is nothing left to learn. People have nanites in their
i honestly had no expectations for this book whatsoever, so i think its pretty safe to say that this was so much better than i thought it would be! and i can definitely understand the hype - the concept was just so fascinating. maybe its because i havent read a dystopian novel in quite some time, but i found this to be so interesting!the writing was so nicely done, as well. it was quite crafty in a way - i felt like there were so many little cliffhangers throughout the book that i had the
