K. WEIKEL ON THE ONE-HUNDRED
This was my first "big" story. The Trapped Trilogy was my baby, but this... This was more than anything I've ever written. There was more thought and more chaos than ever before. And then... The story became me and became bigger than life as it went on. It became a piece of art to me, and my best. Read it--I promise disappointment will be far from your reach! |
REVIEWS OF THE ONE-HUNDRED
- After reading the first three for the SECOND time I realized why I rated it 5 stars. The books basically depicts a girl in desperate need of a reality check. Water is water. Get over it. But in this story water is way more than just water. It's a twist, a character, a vital point in a story of survival. And the whole purpose of this story is to show that sometimes you have to take chances and dive into the unknown. Or in this case the ocean. Cause you both never know what you're gonna find. Or what's gonna find you. Overall a lovely book with a great plot and characters that will make you wanna tear your hair out. In a good way. :)

--I give The One-Hundred 5 stars. It's a well paced and original fantasy with adventure and I highly recommend it. The characters are original and very well thought out.
- Ok so I really, really love this book. It was an instant hook, from the summary to the first chapter. The cover is great too. I liked how it didn't give way everything in the first chapter, but rather left it a mystery. I love trying to guess what might happen next, and all the twists and turns already in only the first chapter! The imagery was on point, the originality was check plus, I definitely rate this 5 stars!! I can't wait to keep reading it! |
