When We Were Human

De: Kate L. Mary

Narrado por: BettySoo

They came four years ago. Invaded our planet, rounded us up, and decimated the human race. We fought back, and some even say we won, but they're wrong. The invaders took everything from us. Our family. Our hope. Our humanity. We won the war, but there are no humans left. Only monsters who will do anything to survive. Some look human and some don't, but they are all the same.

Eighteen-year-old Eva has spent the last year punishing herself for her sister's death and hiding from everyone she comes into contact with, human or otherwise. With the population destroyed and Earth left in ruins, she sees little hope left for the future.

But when she crosses paths with Walker and Tara, something inside her awakens. Something she thought had died along with her entire family. In these new friends Eva sees a promise of what the future could be, as well as evidence that humanity might not be extinct after all.

When a ghost from Eva's past makes an unexpected appearance, the group sets out on a cross-country trek that will teach Eva how to love and hope again, and will remind her what it truly means to be human.

Good book but last 10 min. no sound

I really enjoyed this book but the last 10 min. of the story has no sound. i couldnt make it work in two devices. I hope they upload the complete recording soon. id like to know the ending!

Awesome story!

I love post apocalyptic tales and this one definitely does not disappoint. 5 stars all around!

An extraterrestrial good read.

First, I have to start off by stating that I got this book free of charge in exchange for a review, but as I always state, this does not in any way impact my review. My reviews are always honest and my own.

The story is interesting and draws you in right from the beginning. I enjoyed feeling like you are right there with the characters in their world. Couldn't put it down!

An alien race invaded Earth four years ago. Though Earth won, there were few survivors and a mostly decimated landscape remained. Small groups of survivors have banded together in search of a new existence - and humanity. When Eva meets Walker and Tara, she discovers hope for a new beginning.

I enjoyed Eva's story of torment and survival. She had become as ruthless as the aliens that had tried to take over the planet. It was difficult for her to trust others after seeing the worst of mankind when they had been liberated, only to be in another kind of prison. There were some terrifying moments as well as a little romance to keep my interest. The story seemed open-ended at the conclusion and I suspect there might be a sequel. It was mentioned that the aliens that remained appeared to be regrouping for a possible future attack, so I can easily envision another book. BettySoo's voice was age appropriate for the characters and I could easily distinguish between them. She did an excellent job of drawing in the listener and conveying their emotions. When We Were Human was an enjoyable listening experience and I would recommend it.

Good Story!

I received a free copy of this audio book from the author.

I love a lot of this author's stories. This one was pretty good. Sometimes I don't care for the narrators and it turns me off to a book I'd otherwise like. This narrator I liked. Her voice was pleasant and not grating. This is a little different than other stories by this author, but I liked it.

Great story

Although i enjoyed this book, there was some predictibilty with it. But that even worked to the book's advantage, when the predictible became unpredicted. This is the story of an individual that finds the belonging that she needs to survive.
