I’ve never read or seen any of the Star Wars books or movies (please don’t hate me, it’s on my to do list I promise), but Star Wars seems like the closest story I could relate to Across The Universe. When Amy wakes up she meets Elder who is chosen or destined to be the future generations leader, and together they uncover all the secrets of the ship they live on known as Godspeed. Perhaps the biggest secret is Amy and her frozen companions, until suddenly someone is unfreezing her and killing the rest. There is a strange leadership system in place, and more secrets are contained in this ship than there are people to keep them. During those 300 years the space ship is populated by roughly three thousand people, who over many generations have become monoethnic and behave as if they are empty shells of the real people who once inhabited the real Earth. However, Amy (the main character) and her parents will be frozen for 300 years before they reach this new Earth. But should she put her faith in a boy who has never seen life outside the ship's cold metal walls? All Amy knows is that she and Elder must race to unlock Godspeed's hidden secrets before whoever woke her tries to kill again.I think it’s pretty safe for me to say that I’ve never read a book quite like Across The Universe, which makes me happy that I’m actually accomplishing my goal of broadening my interest of genres this summer.Īcross The Universe is a story about living on a space ship in hopes of creating a better life on a new planet Earth.
