This science fiction novel seems to have a unique perception from the controllers rather than human view. The numbers being the names sounds a bit like they are droid that is manufactured. I'm going to pass on this #BOTD. Great review though

This review was really well written and engaging. It had me intrigued about the book, especially where the question was asked on whether there is something responsible for death and disasters. The idea of lunas is also interesting.

Six and Eighty Nine are best examples of friends entering a world of reality when it comes to friendship...sometimes you need to have a choice even if it will cost you consequences whether it be good or bad base on your action

Sort of sounds intense, the job of a Luna. This sounds interesting but also a bit confusing from your synopsis. I have so many questions. May have to read it.

Wow. For some reason, your description of the book reminded me of 1984 and Animal Farm. The cover reminded me of The Collector. As well written as it sounds, I think I'll take a pass, but thanks for an interesting review. I enjoyed reading it.

I like the concept of replacing names with numbers. It shows great thoughtfulness from the author... Nice review

For this book, friendship is the main focus . And I love books about friendship. I'm also a fan of fanfiction. Hope to read more.

For some reason, it makes me think about how it relates to the events happening today. Personally, I believe that everyone's death is determined at birth by an immoral deity. Although The Eclipsed is not my kind of read, congrats to the author on BOTD! :)

The book is so good that the author has come to the conclusion that there is a luna that everyone happens to be an adult. The book has described two friends Six and eighty and six. The author has shown us that we should have a true friendship like eighty-nine.

The book seems to be a great fictional account. The way you described the job of the Lunas' is ironically humorous. Will definitely be reading this one. Great review!!

I agree with the review. I've read the first few chapters and I found it quite entertaining. Although I'm much more curious as to what the lunas can and can't do as well as how they become lunas.
