Helethia by Lori Lesko my review

This book was beautiful, attention grabbing, sleep depriving (I started it at the wee hours of the morning and finished it in one sitting) and awe-inspiring.

The story is unique and without giving away any spoilers shows human nature at the fullest, and how certain people will always grasp for power, while others will look out for their friends and others. I adored this book. It's one to keep and read again and again, maybe at an earlier hour though.

Helethia is living in Diamond City, a city that only holds females.

Helethia was always told that in the Year of their Rebirth, 2440 5,000 women and children immigrants selected landed on Diamond City—and were left to fend for themselves when the men’s adjoining ship never arrived.

It was then that Councilwoman Alexandra stated a “cleansing” of humanity would take place—that women were capable in a world without men. didn’t need them. Men were called out for their legacy of wars, violence, their abuse against the weaker sex, and it was in actuality a blessing, “from near extinction to a rebirth.”

That's what Helethia and everyone ever since was told. But, had it been the truth? http://www.amazon.com/Helethia-Diamond-City-Trilogy-Lesko-ebook/dp/B016LBD9HM/
