Best Of All Worlds

"It was a fun and quick read that made you think lots throughout."

Emily S. (4/5)

Great YA novel by a childhood favourite author

"Thank you so much to Tandem Global collective, Penguin Teen Ca and Tundra Books for sending me a copy of this book to read and review on this read along. When I saw the name Kenneth Oppel I about screamed because I haven’t read anything by him since I was a kid when I read Silverwing haha. And when I saw this was dystopian I knew I needed it in my life. This was a interesting read for me, our main characters family went to their summer cottage and they all wake up under a dome, which reminds me of Under the Dome (even though I’ve never read it ahha). I liked that thought this story we get introduced to more characters and how different peoples ideas can influence how you think. I also liked that we never really know who is behind the some, is it aliens or have they been kidnapped by the government? And we get a glimpse but there’s still not clear cut answer. The story also makes the reader think if they never give up trying to escape or just give up and live their lives. I enjoyed the variety of characters we meet, kids and adults, stable and not stable also unlikeable with maybe some redeeming qualities. I am still suspicious about our main character Zay’s little brother who was born in the dome. Is he human? Is he a changing? We never find out, he’s just very advanced for his age. I would recommend this book to those who don’t mind a young adult book, not as detailed but still entertaining and interesting."

PRAISE FOR Best of All Worlds:

"Oppel centers a persistent and intelligent protagonist in this unassuming but riveting novel. Compact yet brimming with tense atmosphere, it’s a sharp examination of society and isolation presented as a thriller set in a deceptively bucolic landscape." STARRED REVIEW, Publishers Weekly

"Stereotypes on both sides of the political aisle are deftly explored through these characters, but above all, this is the definition of a page-turner. . . . A thought-provoking, uncomfortable thriller that readers won’t be able to forget. Highly recommended." STARRED REVIEW, School Library Journal

"[A]n inventive, dramatic work of speculative fiction about accepting uncertainty and surviving change. . . . Oppel brilliantly withholds confirming the truth of the Oaks's and Jacksons' circumstances until the novel's crucial climax, ensuring readers will race through the chapters to Oppel's expert landing of a close. An excellent read-alike for fans of Neal Shusterman and Gary Paulsen." STARRED REVIEW, Shelf Awareness

"Oppel . . . leaves readers to sift the evidence through their own social and political convictions. The plot heats up when the mysterious overseers are revealed along with a terrifying secret, and cultural frictions mount between the two families." —Kirkus Reviews

"[T]his already fantastic story takes even more incredible twists and turns, with issues that will strike readers as surprisingly timely and current. . . . [T]he first thing I did was reread the whole book in hopes of finding answers to the questions I still had about this well-crafted story — one that kept me guessing right to the end." Bernie Goedhart, Montreal Gazette

"[I]mmediately puts the reader on edge with a thick atmosphere of suspense and danger." — Young Adult Library Services Association
