Summary

Twenty-five-year-old Joey Graceffa has captured the hearts of more than 8.3 million teens and young adults through his playful, sweet, and inspirational YouTube presence. Already a best-selling author with his memoir, In Real Life, Joey now presents his first novel, Children of Eden.

Rowan is a Second Child in a world where population control measures make her an outlaw marked for death. She can never go to school, make friends, or get the eye implants that will mark her as a true member of Eden. Her kaleidoscope eyes will give her away to the ruthless Center government.

Outside of Eden, Earth is poisoned and dead. All animals and most plants have been destroyed by a man-made catastrophe. Long ago the brilliant scientist Aaron al Baz saved a pocket of civilization by designing the EcoPanopticon, a massive computer program that hijacked all global technology and put it to use preserving the last vestiges of mankind. Humans will wait for thousands of years in Eden until the EcoPan heals the world.

As an illegal Second Child, Rowan has been hidden away in her family's compound for 16 years. Now, restless and desperate to see the world, she recklessly escapes for what she swears will be only one night of adventure. Though she finds an exotic world and even a friend, the night leads to tragedy. Soon Rowan becomes a renegade on the run - unleashing a chain of events that could change the world of Eden forever.

Interesting story

Good story, that does a solid job of building the post-end of the world setting. Nicely narrated. Only critic is it felt a little cold, not much emotion. Would listen to the next one if it gets audibled.

All I can say is.... Wow.

This book brought tears to my eyes... best book I have ever ever read. Absolutely beautiful. I can't wait for another book honestly. I listened to it even when I got told not to because I was so attached to it. the reader really captured how I thought Rowan would have talked and the way joey describes the setting the characters everything. I really hoped Rowan would end up with Lark because she just cared so much about her and probably the reason joey did this was because he is gay but there is nothing wrong with that and I think that is what he is trying to prove. I really like the idea that is written behind this story. I would never have thought of it myself. very impressive Joey. I love this book so much that I am going to purchase the actual book and the sequels to this as I loved it so much.♥️♥️♥️

Loved it but...

I loved it but it would have been better if there was background noises depending on where the characters are.
