I am sobbing Edmund is a dream Cleo is a hero So much sadness and happiness.Ruta Sepetys and this author should write a book together Update 6 13 2017 I still go back to this book at times when my mind meanders It shows in the book that the author researched extensively and implemented the information she had gathered for this time period Cleo is that young woman you strive to be and wish to have by your side she is smart, kind, caring, and willing to put forth that extra effort when the going g [...]

This review also appears on the blog Chasm of Books Thank you to HMH Books for Young Readers for this book via NetgalleyWell researched and haunting, A Death Struck Year is a novel about the heartbreaking truths of the Spanish Influenza outbreak that took so many innocent lives Aside from the grim realities it portrays, it is also a story about a girl who is brave enough to go out into the world and give aid to those who need it most, despite the risk of getting infected herself.I lingered by th [...]

Pam ☼Because Someone Must Be a Thorn☼ Tee

A DEATH STRUCK YEAR reminds me of some of the American Girl books It s well researched and works hard to convey the essence of an era It s also written to appeal to female audience I personally wouldn t suggest it as a read for adults, but there s nothing in particular to keep adults from enjoying it For those suggesting books for younger Tweens I would note that there is some swearing, a tiny bit of drinking used to explain prohibition, and, of course, there are sick people, dying people, and d [...]

I received this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review Let us review what I knew about the Spanish Influenza before reading this book It was terrible The East coast was hit especially hard It was one of the worst pandemics in history It was spread than anticipated because of troop movements during WW1And that s about it I had some idea that the Red Cross was involved GO Red Cross but nothing definite I know a lot than that now The greatest reason that I enjoy reading historic [...]

My sister Josiphine received this as an arc and let me read it So I started this book and I was a little bored Cleo the MC was a little irritating Most of the beginning Cleo is in school doing nothing we are all waiting for the actual plot to start.I persevered through the boredom of the beginning And than the plot starts to climb Things are happening the plot is moving along Finally I am being drawn into the story view spoiler Cleo leaves her school and is now in her house alone her brother is [...]

A horrific and terrifying time in U.S history comes to life in A Death Struck Year by Makiia Lucier as hundreds of thousands of U S citizens fall to the Spanish Flu epidemic of 1918 From coast to coast people died and heroes rose One such hero was seventeen year old Cleo Berry, from Portland, Oregon, a girl boarding temporarily at her school until the return of her guardians The residents of the West Coast felt distant from the flu until traveling soldiers bring it home and it spreads like wildf [...]

2.5 Stars A Death Struck Yearis the latest in a line of Love in the times of epidemic stories The historical setting is well researched and put together the drama that was the times make it an engrossing read.Except The author makes a job of telling instead of showing She mentions in passing Cleo s deep friendships with the girls at school, her run ins with various people across town etc Apart from the bond with her brother Jack, I failed to connect with any of the characters And when people sta [...]

Maja (The Nocturnal Library)

There have been quite a few good books about Spanish Influenza in the last few years, but A Death Struck Year stands out among them as unusually realistic Put simply, it is a story about unlikely heroes, regular people who chose to help others when help is most needed, regardless of the danger A Death Struck Year is about a teen girl who joins the Red Cross volunteers during the outburst of Spanish Influenza in Portland, despite being far too young to do so I myself have spent many, many years v [...]

I m conflicted about how I want to review this because of the historical aspect Most people know about the Spanish Influenza and I think that the author relied heavily on this because there isn t very much talk about it nor about Cleo s background However, it s a fairly strong novel and I can t wait to see what Lucier comes out with next.A Death Struck Year starts out actually quite boring I felt myself quickly lose interest and shaking my head saying, this is why I don t read historical fiction [...]

Kelly

A fine debut novel that highlights the Spanish Flu of 1918 1920.The book skims many other topics Prohibition, WW1, private schools, gender roles, the Red Cross, birth control Sanger and new technology Some of the topics are mentioned in passing and not developed much, but that s okay with me a teacher could use this to further discuss these issues with students In fact, the author s development of the flu and its horrific impact is often provided in a short manner There is no lingering over indi [...]

Jill Robbertze

I didn t at first realize that this was a simple romance really targeting young adults The story is set against the backdrop of the factual Spanish Flu pandemic that claimed so many lives in the early 20th Century Sometimes it s nice to read something light and easy going and for this I enjoyed it A good debut novel that I think young readers will enjoy.

Potential Spoilers This review has some spoilers at the end but I labeled where they pop up.Cleo Berry is a seventeen year old girl living with her uncle and aunt in Portland, Oregon during 1918 When her aunt and uncle travel for a much needed vacation, Cleo is forced to take residence at her school Not long after she arrives, the Spanish Influenza presents itself in Portland and Cleo makes the decision to join the Red Cross As of lately, I have been on a huge historical fiction kick, so when I [...]

Disclaimer if you re not that interested in epidemics and or pandemics, and prefer them in the backdrop of your story, this is probably not the book for you I, on the other hand, love them, and I love the 1918 flu pandemic and WWI even Is it weird that I have favorite pandemics Probably Lucier includes so much detail in her portrayal of Cleo s volunteer work and the hospital, and I cherished every moment of it On top of all that fun, the main character, the supporting characters, and the romanc [...]

I am definitely not a fan of historical fiction but wow I loved this book Its about a girl who signs up to volunteer for the Red Cross in Portland, Oregon during the Spanish Influenza epidemic Her job is to go door to door and distribute information on how to avoid contracting it but if she finds someone sick in their home she has to bring them to the hospital Her way of dealing with loss and understanding her own role in saving these peoples lives was really interesting and though it was a shor [...]

Rezi auf tintentickIn gewohnt hochwertiger Aufmachung kommt dieses Buch daher Das rosa graue Cover mit der wiederholt dargestellten Krankenschwester f llt definitiv auf Obwohl es doch sehr speziell ist, passt es hervorragend zu diesem historischen Jugendbuch Zudem finde ich auch den deutschen Buchtitel Das Fieber viel ansprechender als den englischen Death Struck Year Das Fieber ist ein Buch ber die verheerende Pandemie im 20 Jahrhundert, die so viele Menschen das Leben kostete Es ist aber auch [...]

A great piece of historical fiction I studied the Spanish Influenza in eighth grade science so I that s what prompted me to want to pick up this book I had an idea of how difficult and deadly the Influenza of 1918 was, but this book although fiction brought everything to life that I had already learned I really enjoyed it I m a sucker for anything set in the early to mid 1900s so the year s this book was set in 1918 was something I knew I would enjoy right away.The main character in this book, C [...]

Annette

A Death Struck Year is an emotional book about a very interesting period of U.S history.After recently reading In the Shadow of Blackbirds and seeing that A Death Struck Year was about the 1918 flu pandemic, I knew I had to read it.Once again I will remind you that historical fiction is my favorite genre, so my reviews are always biased because of that But, I just absorbed A Death Struck Year.It s a very short book, but powerful It moves fast as the flu epidemic did and slams you hard with the r [...]

A Death Struck Year is an excellent historical novel for teens from debut author Makiia Lucier about the 1918 flu epidemic, which continues to fascinate and frighten into the 21st century As the novel opens, we meet Cleo, a 17 year old orphan who s being raised by her older brother and his wife She s a student at a ritzy girls boarding school in Portland when the flu epidemic begins in the United States, but despite the dire news reports about the epidemic striking East Coast cities, she feels s [...]

Jocelyn

I really enjoyed reading this book I have to admit this is not one I would have picked on my own I don t make it a habit to pick up historical fiction novels The only times I have done so is when a friend practically shoved the book in my arms However as I was reading this I was quickly captivated by the plot and the characters This novel also is great at educating its readers I knew about the Spanish Flu but it never occurred to me to think of people s reactions, the panic, and things being don [...]

Hilary

A very well written, accessible account of the horrors of the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic, as seen by a 17 year old girl Right from the beginning I connected with Cleo, as she struggled to figure out her calling in life when all her friends seemed to have everything under control.Life was completely normal for her, in fact, until the disease reached a nearby military base Then everything started to become locked down, anything to prevent the spread of the disease that incapacitated and killed so m [...]
