Book Review #781 - Whisper (Whisper #1) by Lynette Noni

36356854






“Lengard is a secret government facility for extraordinary people,” they told me. 


I believed them. That was my mistake.

There isn’t anyone else in the world like me.

I’m different. I’m an anomaly. I’m a monster. 

For two years, six months, fourteen days, eleven hours and sixteen minutes, Subject Six-Eight-Four — ‘Jane Doe’ — has been locked away and experimented on, without uttering a single word.

As Jane’s resolve begins to crack under the influence of her new — and unexpectedly kind — evaluator, she uncovers the truth about Lengard’s mysterious ‘program’, discovering that her own secret is at the heart of a sinister plot … and one wrong move, one wrong word, could change the world.




My Rating: 3/5


I knew very little about this book before diving into it and I think this is the ideal way to approach this book because even the smallest bit of leaked information would be massive spoiler material.

I love Lynette Noni's writing style. It is very engaging and her characters feel really real and relatable. Because of the unusual plot in this book, there is not an awful lot of character development so I am looking forward to that in the next book.

I am not the biggest fan of the science fiction genre and that element was a complete surprise to me because up until that element was introduced the book felt like a contemporary novel. The writing style definitely helped me like it more than what I thought I would.

I also loved the setting. Not just Lengard which was full of mystery but the city that it is set in. I remember being completely surprised when it was revealed where it was set because I didn't expect it and also because I have been to that city multiple times and so it was familiar to me.
