A review by quillnqueer
How We Became Wicked by Alexander Yates

adventurous hopeful fast-paced

4.0

I've been reading some really solid Dystopian stories this year, and How We Became Wicked is no exception. Telling the story of two girls, one living in a small enclosed town away from the outside infected, and one living on a small island with her mother, infected Grandfather and soon to be baby sibling.

This has some truly clever twists and turns, and I thought that the title was an incredibly clever play on words. There's also a plot twist which I almost started working out before it was revealed, but the reveal was really satisfying, and made the story much more memorable for me.
