Grace by Elizabeth Scott


Grace was raised to be an Angel, a herald of death by suicide bomb. But she refuses to die for the cause, and now Grace is on the run, daring to dream of freedom. In search of a border she may never reach, she travels among malevolent soldiers on a decrepit train crawling through the desert. Accompanied by the mysterious Kerr, Grace struggles to be invisible, but the fear of discovery looms large as she recalls the history and events that delivered her uncertain fate.


I’ve loved everything that I’ve read by Elizabeth Scott, but I didn’t know how I would like Grace. It seemed very different from the variety of books she’d written in the past. In the beginning of this book I felt mildly lost but as I read more, I really started getting into the story more.
Grace was a haunting novel that I think everyone should read. Elizabeth Scott never disappoints in anything she writes and this was no exception. This story will stick inside your head and keep you thinking about it for days. I read it a few months ago and I still think about it.
Grace provides insight into a world that not many people know about, which I think really sets this book a part from the other ones on the Young Adult shelves.
Grace is a touching, heartbreaking, haunting book that you won’t forget after reading.

  3. This is by far Scott's most powerful and galvanizing book yet, proving her to be a flexible and exceedingly talented writer. Grace is a book that demands to be devoured in one sitting, but read time and time again.
