Commentary Supposing Books Schism
"My name is Andrea Christensen. I'm one of the oldest oldest people in the world."SCHISM is the first book in a new dystopian trilogy that tells a tale of survival, of good versus evil, and of constructing a future with only memories of childhood.
A government-created virus is accidentally released before testing is complete and within weeks it kills six billion people, children are the only survivors. Andy Christensen and her two friends travel across the country searching for a safe place to live, but nowhere, it seems, is capable of resurrection.

I received an ARC for free as part of a Goodreads Giveaway.This book starts off a bit slow but after the first quarter I was hooked, almost to the point I could not point it down. The world Britt created has echoes of The Stand combined with Lord of the Flies but in a very modern, accessible style. Fans of contemporary young adult fiction like the Hunger Games or the Legend series should find a great deal to enjoy here as well. My only regret in receiving an ARC is that it means I still have to
This was my first Goodreads Giveaway win! Let me start by saying I enjoyed the book. It only got three stars from me mostly because I found the book to be very hard to get into. The book starts out feeling like a list of facts. It took about 30 or so pages for it to even begin feeling like it was finally a story. Little things about the book definitely got to me. Things that just didn't make any sense to me. The dynamics of the virus I guess could be plausible, but just seems very unreal and
Britt Holewinskis Schism is a highly entertaining dystopian novel that reads like a futuristic Lord of the Flies. Im pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed Schism. This captivating storytelling grabs the reader from the beginning and doesnt let go until the very last word. I had tons of fun reading this. Heres a basic summary, but I dont want to give anything away. The government created a virus that is accidentally released before they complete their testing and as a result, billions of
Schism is a very interesting story about what it could be like if a virus killed everyone, except children. How can children survive on their own, without grown-ups? What would they do, and would there be order and government? I received this book from the author a long time ago, when it was a different title, and I just loved it. I read it cover to cover in less than a week and could not stop thinking about it.It's better than Hunger Games and Divergent put together because the plot is just so
Schism is a book for young and old adults alike. Its a thrilling read and I couldn't put it down once I started. The characters are well written and you find yourself rooting for them to the end. I can't wait to find out what happens in book 2!!
Schism will definitely take you for a wild ride. Once you start this book you will not be able to put it down! This book is a fast paced story of what a post Apocalyptic world would be like if everyone over the age of 13 were suddenly gone. It had me completely enthralled from the first chapter. Just when you think you have it all figured out, there's another curve ball waiting just around the next page. The story is told from Andy's perspective. She is a 13 year old girl at the time of the
