She hates her son. There's really nothing relatable or sympathetic about her character. They’re so cool because they read to you. I feel excited when we get them from the library and I like that they read us the whole story!” Brady—7

Since women can no longer talk, they can no longer work. Girls are only taught math in school, and reading and writing is for boys only. The ramifications of this are overarching, and the author does an impeccable job delineating it all. The plot revolves around a dystopian future where U.S. women are only allowed to speak 100 words per day or face the consequences of the Christian Reich.

Vox is lazy on detail, whether of the geopolitical variety which isn't that necessary, or the sensory details of how a household or neighborhood would change under the pall of an American theocracy which I felt were necessary. I didn't buy the conceit of the novel at all. "We never thought it could happen here, until 2016 ..." is how the author might respond, but as a reader, I wasn't convinced. A natural disaster, economic depression or plague might possibly turn the country toward a religious state, but as we've seen, a white nationalist stooge despised by half the country isn't nearly enough. I needed more engines failing on the plane and more reason to care when they did. Kaplan, James. "Vox". Vanity Fair. Archived from the original on 30 December 2019 . Retrieved 30 December 2019.We love the iVOX app, especially at this time where virtual books are so important. The demand for these have exceeded our expectations and we’ve now increased our budget for these cutting-edge virtual and immersive books. Our clients love them! Juniah Fascinating dystopian read, kept me up all night. What set this one apart for me is the questions raised by the characters, causing me to wonder about my own responses as well as my present activities. Book clubs will want this one for strong opinions alone. What happens when the country's leading linguist happens to be a woman and is called out of her forced retirement by the President himself? What does he want from Dr. Jean McClellan, a mother of four and our fearless narrator? Well, that my friends is the story.
