Ultraxenopia

M. A. Phipps

Don't stand out. Blend in. Remain invisible. Those are the rules I lived by-the rules I thought would keep me alive. I was wrong. Wynter Reeves is a law-abiding citizen of the State, a willing conformist whose daily life is haunted by terrorism and oppression. With the constant threat of death hanging over her like a shadow, she forces herself to live by a strict set of rules, all in the hope of ensuring she is never noticed. However, on her twenty-first birthday, as she prepares to take the placement exam that will determine her future within society, she begins to show symptoms of a rare and debilitating illness-ultimately attracting the attention of the State. Taken into the custody of the feared research facility known as the DSD, her worst nightmare becomes reality. Ripped away from the life she knew, Wynter is forced to become the test subject of the mysterious Dr. Richter. Through him, she learns the true and terrifying nature of her condition: a disease called Ultraxenopia.

To begin, this was my first ever dystopian read… and M.A. Phipps is someone who I genuinely believe is a game changer in the author industry. There were so many things that I loved, that I couldn’t find any faults whatsoever.

The story of Wynter Reeves is one that takes you through a painful, mysterious and enlightening journey that will have your heart strings pulled in so many different ways. Phipps has definitely redefined what “character” is. It’s one thing to write about emotions, to write about pain. But to make you truly feel the anguish, and undeniably understand how someone feels, and the intricate thought process to their actions, Phipps takes it to a whole other level.

M.A. Phipps is a phenomenal artist, and the pages are her canvas. The pacing to every scene was perfect, and each chapter brings something new to the table. You’ll fall in love with every single character that you come across, as they all have their moments to shine and show you what makes them tick, even the ones that only have one line!

“Ultraxenopia” is a disease of a book that will latch on and consume you until you’ve finished. Even then, you’ll be screaming for more once you’re done! This is my new favourite novel by far, and needs to be in your To-Be-Read list or in your hands now!
