#BookReview for The Raging Ones (The Raging Ones #1) by Krista Ritchie Becca Ritchie


Synopsis: In a freezing world, where everyone knows the day they will die, three teens break all odds. 

Franny Bluecastle, a tough city teen, dreams of dying in opulence, to see wealth she’s never known. Like the entire world, she believes it’s impossible to dodge a deathday. 

Until the day she does. 

Court Icecastle knows wealth. He also knows pain. Spending five years in Vorkter Prison, a fortress of ice and suffering, he dreams of life beyond the people that haunt him and the world that imprisoned him. 

Mykal Kickfall fights for those he loves. The rugged Hinterlander shares a frustrating yet unbreakable connection with Court—which only grows more lawless and chaotic as their senses and emotions connect with Franny. 

With the threat of people learning they’ve dodged their deathdays, they must flee their planet to survive. But to do so, all three will have to hide their shared bond as they vie for a highly sought after spot in the newest mission to space. Against thousands of people far smarter, who’ll live longer, and never fear death the way that they do.

Rating: 🌟🌟🌟
My Review: I really wanted to love this one but unfortunately this one after a while just wasn't going anywhere.  The aspect of knowing when you are going to die was one that was very interesting but the execution of that world and what these authors did with it wasn't done very well in my eyes.  I found that there were major parts of the story that were very slow and just not enough world building.  I wished that this would have been more about these characters vs. this contest that they went to.  





"A potently addictive blend of romance, fantasy, and science fiction full of unexpected twists." - Kirkus, Starred Review
