Find Me After Written by A. Connors. Reviewed by Zahrah, Age 13

This book has to be one of the most unique that I have ever read. It’s more of a ‘slow burn’ as it takes some time to get into it, however, the plot unravels nicely and the final few chapters had me at the end of my seat!

I was drawn to this book, because of it’s original storyline and the novel itself was a bit different to what I was used to.

The book includes religious imagery throughout and Conners does a good job of encapsulating the feelings of ‘Kyle’ – the main protagonist in the story.

Furthermore, the story also beautifully embeds a romance between ‘Farah’ (the other protagonist in the novel) and ‘Kyle’ which I really enjoyed reading, due to the fact that both characters have such different personalities, with ‘Farah’ being loud and confident, and ‘Kyle’ being perceived as timider and quieter.

The story begins, with ‘Kyle’ an epileptic teenager, who after waking up from a seizure, feels as if something isn’t quite right, so he gathers his strength to walk to the hospital where he eventually comes across ‘Farah’ a girl whom he knew from high school and later a boy called ‘Chui’, he ends up befriending them both when they realise that they’re not actually living but not quite dead…

Overall, a good novel I would recommend to fans of thrillers and YA books in general!
