The Year of the Flood

By Margarat Atwood. 

The second book in Atwood's MaddAddam series. The story of Brenda, Toby, and what life is like outside of the Corporate compounds.

Just as depressing as Orxy and Crake. The world of MaddAddam is just our world taken a little farther. Corporations have more power. The Government has none. We ignore global warming. Everything is legal if you have enough money, or aren't important enough for the money to care. 

The House on the Cerulean Sea


 
By TJ Klune.

Cute. Warm. An easy fantasy read. 
World building wise, so much is left out of this book. Short sentences hint at something big and terrible in the time before this story. I will look up the other books in this series to see where they go.
