In a future so real and near it might be now, something happens when women go to sleep: they become shrouded in a cocoon-like gauze. If they are awakened, if the gauze wrapping their bodies is disturbed or violated, the women become feral and spectacularly violent. And while they sleep they go to another place, a better place, where harmony prevails and conflict is rare. One woman, the mysterious &;Eve Black,&; is immune to the blessing or curse of the sleeping disease. Is Eve a medical anomaly to be studied? Or is she a demon who must be slain?

Good book

Welcome to the suffocating world of Sleeping Beauties, in which a supernatural “sleeping sickness” has come to exist — for a filmy gauze wraps around all of the women in the population when they fall asleep, like a cocoon. Worse still, it’s impossible to tear them from it, as they wake up with violence in their eyes if anyone touches the gauze. With such a high-concept premise, Sleeping Beauties is a solid offering as a standalone book.

INTERESTING

The whole idea of the story is so unique and interesting. Such a page turner with a rich population of complicated, interconnected characters and good dialogue. Thumbs up.
