The Bodies We Wear by Jeyn Roberts

  • Another interesting dystopic fantasy thriller from Jeyn Roberts… with a twist!
  • Set in a dark downtown – presumably modelled after Vancouver – this book deals with difficult issues – children and teens who are addicted to drugs and (spoiler alert!) who even commit murder.
  • But, it does go to show that humanity and common decency ultimately prevail… and shows that revenge isn’t always everything it’s cracked up to be!
