Ilustration Supposing Books Republic's Chosen (After the World Ends #1)
The world had never seen utopias until the Latin Republic was established. Equality, respect, humane treatment – all of those drive the society's philosophy after the Great Disaster.Yet humanity has not learned to leave war behind. When the Republic sends summons to Liana, she knows it’s illegal. Her immigrant status forbids her from fighting in the army, but the country’s leaders want control over her and they won’t stop at anything to get it.
Under the pressure of a tough training regime, threatened by a complicated political plot she must quickly untangle, it is no surprise Liana’s marriage begins to crumble. Tossed in a training campus and immediately involved in its intrigue, Liana needs allies quickly, but all she wants to do is crush the system which holds her hostage. With each passing day, it’s becoming harder to reconcile the need to hide her real identity and the desire to protect her immigrant countryfolk from harm.
An old friend returns to her life just in time to give her the leverage she needs. There is no chance she’s ever coming back to her peaceful life in hiding.
A strong bisexual lead, a secret identity, Special Forces soldiers, true friendship, and a headstrong trauma survivor trying to accept her role in saving the world.

This book gets better the longer you give it. The story alternates viewpoints between two main characters, Liana and Marcus, which at first I found tricky but later I definitely came to appreciate and enjoy this. Set in a military environment, I had my doubts as its not my usual genre, but the author doesnt overdo it and involves love, intrigue, and a bundle of emotions. Making for a very enjoyable read. As the story develops, so do the characters, creating a growing attachment to Liana. ShesWitty and well-conceived post apocalyptic story set in 2177. Gender classification has become 'fluid' and we have two societies formed from the remains of the Great Disaster. Wonderful characterisation with a feisty and strong protagonist in Liana, a 'she' from the wrong side of the tracks as far as military duties are concerned. I really enjoyed the dialogue and writing style and the action scenes are well written too, the only thing I would have liked a little more of was some deeper
This was a very interesting military sci-fi, and I adored the characters, they all had distinct personalities, and the story arcs were compelling. I highly recommend this book, so much so I gave it to a friend of mine to read immediately after I finished it. Also, I respect that the author included trigger warnings at the beginning of the novel.
I was really excited to read this book. I got a free ebook copy through the Sapphic Book Club, so it promised to be pretty gay, and the description sounded right up my alley. (The description I read also included something about Liana being former special forces and totally showing up everyone else in the army, which is a trope I love, but I cant for the life of me find the description I read.)Overall, Republics Chosen was good, but disappointing.I liked Liana, to a point. She was skilled way
This is a book worth anybody's time. It's one of those reads which start off with a kick, take you one direction, and then do a 180 degree turn in the way they handle the story. And the themes....... such important topics to discuss. All of it woven between action and cool relatable characters, it just keeps you going.
Need to write a full review for this still, but really all you need to know is it's sci-fi, and it contains strong women, survivors, and morals that don't come off as preaching. Oh yeah, and almost everyone is queer.
OH MY GOODNESS! YES! YES! A million times YES! Finally!!Okay, I calmed down a bit... but I need to tell you that I absolutely LOVED this book! It's exhilarating, annoying, gripping, powerful, funny, full of sarcasm and likeable characters! If you liked The Tearling Trilogy by Erika Johansen or Lady Midnight from The Dark Artifices by Cassandra Clare, you're going to love this book as much as I do! To begin with, I need to let you know that I had high expectations for this book. (demands even) I
