The Dystopia genre is one I've never read much of but reading about Eazee Life had me curious. Whilst set a century in from present day? The author blends the realities we are currently facing such as the serious threat of pollution, fracking etctera with her dystopian future where genetically modified crops have caused a global shortage of produce to grow and the destruction of bees (the warnings of, we sadly see every day) and of the rich living in special pods were their lives are relatively normal to the reader. If you're rich, you can eat whatever you want at great expense, still maintain gardens with vibrant flowers and water that is a rarity for those who are left living in the wastelands with poisoned air and extreme rations.
The rich are able to have children or 'Beloveds' thanks to the ability to pay for the procedures whilst again, the poor are left to struggle and for teenagers and children? The knowledge that unless a miracle happens? They will be the last of their families. This alongside being segregated into various areas to live that are guarded and ypu must carry ID that will no dpibt ensure youre punished if you're not where you should be as well as being forced to work for the entitled rich who treat them with hatred at worse and like they're invisible or inanimate at best.
With such ill treatment and blatant disregard for how lucky they wealthy are? There is growing animosity between the two groups which is inevitable and there's rumours of a militia who are determined to regain some equality for those who are being broken down both literally and figuratively.
I really enjoyed the characterization of the two groups and clear distinctions between rich and poor. The author's writing had me captivated and a 24 hour read occurred because I'd just discovered that this dystopian series may well have caused me to have a new area to read. The world building is so good, you can almost envision the two sides of this new England where Eazee Life is set (which is refreshing as a lot of books I read that are not high fantasy seem to be US based) One side is rich in colour in my head both with the clothes the people can buy and their homes and then on the other side everything is faded and bleak.. You can almost feel a change in temperature too as we experience the two sides of this futuristic world.
This is book one in a trilogy, and there's so many twists and turns and a million questions about what will happen and just what is Eazee Life truly up too and are they good or bad for the oppressed? Only time will tell and I'm eagerly awaiting book two because Holy Hell, the author left me wondering just what happened when I came to the last page.
