Rachel's Story by Leigh Russell - A Bloodhound Books review

 Rachel's Story



Rachel’s Story bei Leigh Russell is everything the description promises it to be. 

Rachel grows up in a world where food and life is ruled by the select few in government. Her life is ripped apart when her mother is brutally killed and Rachel is forced to join “The program”. At first, Rachel is lured in by the special treatment those chosen for “The program” receive. But soon, doubts form in her mind and a disturbing encounter with a former friend convince her that she needs to leave. With no plan but a lot of luck, she finds herself joining the people she was taught to fear her whole life. 

This story really gripped me from start to finish. World building and character development happen at a fast pace, leaving no room for skimming or boredom! With haunting tones of The Handmaids tale, this is a great new dystopian adventure to get engrossed in! The only thing I was a tiny bit disappointed in was the very abrupt ending! I just wanted to carry on reading to find out what happens to Rachel! I will definitely be looking out for the next book! 

My thanks go to Bloodhound publishing and the author for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
