What Members Thought
I would give Wither 3.5 stars, but that is being generous. It is a well-written story, but a little slow. My issue with Wither is that I felt the characters needed further development in order for me to really be invested in the story. There are definitely some interesting characters, but the main character, as well as her "love interest," kind of bore me. Would I read the next book? Sure, I am mildly interested in what happens next, but if I never find out, that is okay too.

A rather interesting take on a post-apocalyptic world where a virus kills all males at age 25 and females at 20. In order to keep up the population and to have viable subjects for experimentation to find a cure for the virus, young women are kidnapped and sold into polygamous marriages. I enjoyed it!
