When I was in high school I LOVED Gena Showalter. I binged her YA and adult romance books like they were the air I needed to breathe. But not? Firstlife... Eh, it was NOT a winner. Like, hardcore not a winner. It had the coolest idea for the story and it sounded SO COOL... but the actual writing? So many short sentences... So many. And it also sounded like an eight year old was writing as a teenager, or a Boomer really trying to pretend they are a teenager in an online group chat.

I worked my way through the book since I wanted to see how it ended (typical cliffhanger), but... It's a no from me. I won't be able to continue on in this series. Hopefully my next Gena read will be better.

One out of five stars. Big NOPE from this previous fan. (

meh. Weirdly complicated and just doesn't flow or gel well. Could be an interesting concept but I don't recommend. (

Firstlife by Gena Showalter

1st book in a trilogy. Young adult dystopian fantasy.
Extensive world building. Extreme torture of the heroine trying to force her to make a decision for her Second life. Underhanded manipulations and deceiving friendships.

Basically a super dark story where the heroine is under constant pressure and hardships in her “first” life on earth. Next book will be based on her decision as the worlds war. (

Firstlife, an Everlife Novel

ONE CHOICE.

TWO REALMS.

NO SECOND CHANCE.

Tenley "Ten" Lockwood is an average seventeen-year-old girl...who has spent the past thirteen months locked inside the Prynne Asylum. The reason? Not her obsession with numbers, but her refusal to let her parents choose where she'll live�??after she dies.

There is an eternal truth most of the world has come to accept: Firstlife is merely a dress rehearsal, and real life begins after death.

In the Everlife, two realms are in power: Troika and Myriad, longtime enemies and deadly rivals. Both will do anything to recruit Ten, including sending their top Laborers to lure her to their side. Soon, Ten finds herself on the run, caught in a wild tug-of-war between the two realms who will do anything to win the right to her soul. Who can she trust? And what if the realm she's drawn to isn't where the boy she's falling for lives? She just has to stay alive long enough to make a decision...
