America Divided: The Utopian Story by Kenneth Bible, Jeff Bible, and Martha Bible is a thriller that takes place during the 2036 United States presidential election between Isaac Wolfe and Jim Taylor. Isaac Wolfe’s vision is to end the constitution and make America a socialist country with wealth shared equally between the poor and rich, while his opponent, Jim Taylor, sees Wolfe’s mission as a destruction of America and aims to keep America free and based on capitalism. After a series of arguments and public debates, the election was moving in favor of Wolfe, which led to a high-stakes conflict that split the country into two, with each taking sides of either Isaac Wolfe or Jim Taylor.
As someone who grew up in a family where political debates during dinner could get as heated as Wolfe and Taylor’s clashes, I found myself deeply connected to this book. Kenneth Bible et al. did a great job of crafting this engaging and complicated storyline. Wolfe wanted the best for America as much as Jim Taylor did, but the only thing that stood between their hope for the future of America was their different beliefs. I loved Jim’s fearless and relentless nature. The character development was superb, the plot was fast-paced, and the writing style was well-detailed. The cliffhanger at the end was unexpected and got me so curious, I had to check if the next volume had been published. America Divided made me wonder if freedom or equality matters more, and I liked that it didn’t pick sides. This is a book that I feel is warning the world about fighting too much over ideas. I recommend it to readers who love political stories and care about the future of America.
