My Review
I Have really gotten in to reading dystopian novels and I could not wait to get stuck into reading Unborn as I have really enjoyed this authors previous thrillers.
The year is 2026 here in the USA under the new Moralities act three women are facing criminal charges.
Their crime?
seeking to end their pregnancy's.
You see here in this time abortion is against the law and any women who tragically have miscarriages are now under suspicion of manslaughter.
Through this read we get we get to know these women and what caused them to commit the crimes they are charged with.
This story was so very disturbing, In my heart I can not imagine a place or future where power and choice would be stripped from women, in my head I know of struggles close to home in Ireland and certain States in the USA where this topic and the fundamental right for a women to chose her own path in pregnancy are argued about, protested, and discussed as law each and every day.
This story was so very well thought out that even through it seems unbelievable that this could happen you clearly see the slippery slope that made it possible.
I found the whole read both gripping and compelling, I was drawn in to this world and the 3 main characters fight for not only there lives, but there power and freedom too.
With a fast pace, chilling story and amazing characters I defy you not to find it difficult to put this read down, and to find when you do its is all you think about in-between.
