ARC Review: This is the Way the World Ends

 I received an ARC of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. This did not affect my opinion of the book or my review itself.


This is the Way the World Ends by Jen Wilde

Waverly has always felt like she doesn’t belong. She is an autistic student whose family is scraping by at an incredibly rich and prestigious school. When Caroline, the most popular girl at school, suggests Waverly disguise herself as Caroline to gain entry to the school’s masquerade ball, Waverly agrees. It doesn’t hurt that her ex-girlfriend who ghosted her will be there.

But when the masquerade is made up of clandestine meetings, secret passageways, and even murder, Waverly realizes nothing about her school is what she believed. Add in that the world may be ending outside the party’s doors, and it’s truly a night Waverly will never forget.

This was a really gripping and unique read. The masquerade ball and everyone there really came alive through Wilde’s writing, and it felt like I was there with the characters. The tension was so heightened, and everything was so mysterious and suspenseful. The stakes were so high I couldn’t help but be invested. I would recommend this book.
