Paradox by A.J. Paquette Review


Book Review: Paradox by: A.J. Paquette
 

I received this book from Book Divas (http://www.bookdivas.com/)
 

 

Paradox was a nice and quick read. I finished it in two sittings but I am also a slow reader. The story was a very interesting one and definitely an original idea. I have never read another book quite like it.

 

In the beginning while we were following Ana through the new planet of Paradox it seemed very basic and fairly predictable. Immediately we know there are going to be other people with Ana just because of how the ship is laid out. A few chapters later she finds Todd. It is again made very clear that Todd knows more than he is letting on. Take for example he knows where he is going without the use of his map. The story goes on like this with little hints spread through out the chapters telling us what is coming next.

 

What I couldn’t figure out was how the survivor’s fears were a big part in what was happening and how they tied in with Ana’s flashbacks. Finally the end came I was completely surprised and Paradox is definitely well worth the read.

 

Plot: 3-Was fairly basic with one twist

Character: 3-Didn’t get enough to love or hate the characters

Originality: 5-Never saw the story line before

Overall: 3.5- Good quick read when you need a fix for your book cravings

 

Recommendation Scale: ({no} 1-2-3-4-5 {yes})

 

 

May the Force Be With You,

 

Sean
