Narrative In Favor Of Books The Forest of Hands and Teeth (The Forest of Hands and Teeth #1)
In Mary's world there are simple truths. The Sisterhood always knows best. The Guardians will protect and serve. The Unconsecrated will never relent. And you must always mind the fence that surrounds the village; the fence that protects the village from the Forest of Hands and Teeth. But, slowly, Mary’s truths are failing her. She’s learning things she never wanted to know about the Sisterhood and its secrets, and the Guardians and their power, and about the Unconsecrated and their relentlessness. When the fence is breached and her world is thrown into chaos, she must choose between her village and her future—between the one she loves and the one who loves her. And she must face the truth about the Forest of Hands and Teeth. Could there be life outside a world surrounded by so much death?

Mary is a shit. Let's get that straight from the beginning. As a main character I tried to like her. I really did. Did NOT happen. The story starts off in a small town that Mary lives in. It's ruled by the Guardians and the Sisterhood. The sisterhood: The book never really explained why the Guardians existed nor much of what they did. I actually want to know more about the creepy Sisterhood that everyone listens too. I don't get why they were in charge. Mary ends up in the Sisterhood due toDear Mary,You went full Shane. You never go full Shane.Hugs and kisses, Kikixoxo
I still haven't finished reading this book. But I felt it would be necessary to write as I go along reading the Forest Of Hands And Teeth. Just to make the book to some extent more bearable. Props to the writer who faintly has beautiful way with words, but also has a way with boring me to tears. Yet, I can't tell if I'm bored stiff because of the way its written that causes my eyes to go heavy with sleep, or if perhaps its the plot. It could be the characters in addition. Or, possibly its all

Ive been trying to write my reviews soon after I read a novel why the emotion of the story is still fresh within me, but with The Forest of Hands and Teeth, I needed a few days to digest. I particularly enjoyed this novel. The writing was beautiful, it was one of the best written novels Ive read in a while. The plot itself, while it did remind me of a mix of the movies The Village and I Am Legend, I still found it to be original in context. It was captivating and suspenseful, I had a very hard
3.5/5.0 stars.Why Not a Higher Rating?*Ultimately this was a rather unsatisfying read for me. It took me a while to get engaged in the story, and to care about the characters.*When that finally happened, then things got rather tragic. I realize that it wasn't Mary's fault, and she showed true heroism, but part of me wanted to blame her for how things unfolded. Probably not fair, but kind of how I felt.*Mary was a bit too wishy-washy for me. She wanted Travis more than anything. No, she wanted to
