Measure of Days

I really liked this one! A flesh-eating virus, custom body parts - what more could you want?!

I absolutely loved Deter. She was naive to begin with. She didn’t know anything about the virus having been shielded from it her entire life.

There was lots of characters, and we learnt a little bit from each of their points of views. I liked this, as we got to read about the world from the views of different people, and it was surprising how much you learned.

The chapters: short and sweet, which is what I love. It makes the story so fast-paced, and quick to read.

My favourite characters were Deter and Lincoln. Both such strong people.

I’ve already started the second book, and I’m excited to learn more about Deter and what happens to her.

I have it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you to the author for the finished copy!

This is a fabulously fun thought provoking book. Wonderfully written by a talented mind. I love the way the chapters are delineated by each character: it makes it easy to dip in and dip out, yet also means you want to keep on reading. A perfect combination.

Deter is a sweet and charming character. Her race against the Establishment and friends she meets on her journey to help find a cure for FED is a romper-stomper of a read.
Thank you for giving me some lockdown fun; for making me look forward to getting lost in a world of flesh eating diseases and all singing all dancing prosthetic limbs !
Measure of Days will light up your day.

First of all thank you NetGalley for approving my request to be able to read this book.

The Measure of Days is exciting from the beginning and easy to finish really quickly because there is always something going on.

We get a girl, Deter, who lives her ordinary life till she gets kidnapped. She is Immune to the so called FED virus. Her whole life changed after she gets to know more.
The only thing that was a bit struggle for me in reading is the changing point of views, but as the story itself was easy to follow with time I got used to it and grown to like the other characters too.

Somehow the book gave me a bit of The Maze Runner and Divergent vibe. If you liked those series you definitely will be a fan of this book too and I do recommend it for those readers.
