okay I won this book as a ARC and it took me A WHILE to finish since it is coming out this month! but yaa... BUY IT! I loved this book!!!
This is a really unusual book, and that's what I loved most about it. There are no vampires, no shape shifters, no werewolves, no zombies, no nothiiiing. It is totally unexpected when we find out what some of the characters are. It takes place on Eden something something lol I kinda forgot and WOW! While I was reading I was wondering could this really happen to OUR world in REALITY? has this happened? The information the author wrote in the book was a lot to take in, he really put huge effort in it. So we are talking about the LOST ATLANTIS. If you haven't figured out yet, since that's what the series is called. The characters were really nice developed and I appreciated every each of one of them. You always have your villain and protagonists or maybe in this story protagonistsss. I LOVED the romance, it was undeniably cuute and very sweet. It was very well- written, and I loved how he described their world. It was mesmerizing and fresh. I don't really want to say much about this book because its a TO-READ NOW book, but to just appreciate our worlds wonders. This book taught me that we need to stop taking everything for granted and just let it be. I recommend it to anybody who wants to find out about the Lost Atlantis and be in for a ride:D

I'm with you on this one. I loved this book. Even though there are so many things I find to be great about The Lost Code I want to bring the focus to one thing in particular that you mentioned. I feel that this book really put our environmental situation in perspective. The idea of our world eventually becoming the wasteland that these characters know as home is terrifying because it is so realistic. I'm not trying to start a whole discussion on global warming and such, but I find myself wondering just how difficult and dangerous life in this book is. Even the more privileged residents of Eden suffer from the harsh conditions all though most of them ignore it in favor of feeling safe. I totally understand Lily's superstitions and paranoia. I just wouldn't be able to pretend that the fake sky above my head wasn't in danger of failing and exposing everyone to the harmful effects of a polluted earth.
