Children of Eden
by Joey Graceffa
Review by Alia

“Children of Eden” is a spectacular novel showing how a girl that didn’t exist to other people, for sixteen years, finally goes out and discovers the world.

Everyone in Eden lives a happy life in the inner circle where no second children or any harm can get to them. In the outside world it is poisoned and everything has been destroyed by man made disaster. This is why Eden is so protected by security.

Rowan has been living in her house for sixteen whole years not being able to go outside since she is a second child. She finally adventures going out to the world of Eden. She had a great time, made a new friend, but then the night leads to misfortune. She soon gets hunted from the Greenshirts and is now on the run.

Joey Graceffa’s storytelling is very creative. He has an imagination so full of ideas that it makes the readers feel like they are actually in the book.

There’s Rowan who is a second child and wants to see the world, her brother Ash who gets to live a normal life and tell Rowan all about his life experiences. Rowans mom and dad who also care for her and try their best to help Rowan get to a normal life. Then there is the Greenshirts that are kind of like security chasing second children and any bad thing that comes in the way of keeping Eden safe.

Joey gives an adventure full of great imagination. This novel will make you want to keep reading more and more if you feel like diving into a mysterious world of Eden.
