This is Not the End

Autor Chandler Baker
en Paperback – 6 aug 2018 – vârsta de la 14 ani
If you could choose one person to bring back to life, who would it be?

Seventeen-year-old Lake Deveraux is the survivor of a car crash that killed her best friend and boyfriend. Now she faces an impossible choice. Resurrection technology changed the world, but strict laws allow just one resurrection per citizen, to be used on your eighteenth birthday or lost forever.

You only have days to decide.

For each grieving family, Lake is the best chance to bring back their child.

For Lake, it's the only way to reclaim a piece of happiness after her own family fell apart.

And Lake must also grapple with a secret--and illegal--vow she made years ago to resurrect someone else. Someone who's not even dead yet.

Who do you need most?

As Lake's eighteenth birthday nears, secrets and betrayals new and old threaten to eclipse her cherished memories. Lake has one chance to save a life...but can she live with her choice?

Recenzii

"THIS IS NOT THE END captures a teen's voice nearly perfectly. Despair is pronounced in this futuristic novel that reads as a suspenseful thriller - the secrets, the twists and the turns will keep the pages turning... Read on, because even the last pages hold huge surprises!"—Kristen Hess, Let's Play Books! in Emmaus, PA
"Lake's journey of self-discovery is emotional and surprising, and will stay with readers."—Publishers Weekly
"This Is Not the End is full of characters to connect with... Chandler beautifully captures the difficult emotions that come with grief, acceptance, and unimaginable choices... She has taken a human desire: to bring loved ones back from the dead - to have just a little bit longer, and brought it to life, forcing her readers to examine this dream, to want it, and to doubt it."—Hannah Walcher, Books Inc in San Francisco, CA
"Chandler Baker's THIS IS NOT THE END.... is on one level a twisty, unputdownable journey, a dark crowdpleaser that does not let up, even in its final pages-- think:We Were Liars. And it's also a deeply moving meditation on love, loyalty, and grief, and one of the best YA novels I have read since A.S. King'sI Crawl Through It. A book you can hand as easily to a teen as you can to a loyal book club."Rob Dougherty at Clinton Bookshop In Clinton, NJ
"THIS IS NOT THE END by Chandler Baker is unputdownable. Literally, I read it in one sitting and these characters--and that twist, oh the twist!!-- have stuck with me for days. What if resurrection was a reality? This twisty, mesmerizing novel is likeWe Were LiarsandSophie's Choicewith a trace ofUnwind. A story of impossible choices that is as layered as it is exciting."Holland Saltsman, The Novel Neighbor in St Louis, MO
"This Is Not The Enduses the abundant drama of Lake's predicament as a powerful fulcrum of self-exploration and revelation... Thought provoking and emotionally satisfying, readers will turn the book's last page and wish ironically thatThis Is Not The Endwas not really over."Kenny Brechner, DDG Booksellers in Farmington, ME
