Agnes at the End of the World is an eye-opening and interesting dystopian fiction novel by Kelly McWilliams. This book is about an oppressed 16-year-old girl named Agnes. Agnes lives in Red Creek, the place of the faithful. Red Creek is a Christian based community, with a mad prophet who oppressed his people into believing in his lies. Agnes runs outside her home with her youngest brother and into a dangerous world with Petra, a virus that turns anyone infected into a smooth red stoned creature. In the outside she meets the nurse who saved her brother’s life when he was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Agnes hears God’s voice and returns to her home with more people than she anticipated. She saves the world from the virus and reclaims her home, and makes it anew. I love the way the author keeps the story going like I couldn’t even put the book down, and how the author weaves the story from two points of view. I recommend this book to my fellow feminists and those who want to believe that one person can change the world forever. That is why I rate Agnes at the End of the World a 5/5.
