My Thoughts
This is a dystopian futuristic type novel that will leave you on the edge of your seat. Savannah is a young doctor, only nineteen, and is a wonderful character. She develops at a great pace in this book, and really shines. First in a series, I am excited about the next one. The idea of this reality is a shocking one and will really make you think. The author has built a fantastic world with complex and likable characters, with a tight and unique plot that will leave adult and young adult readers alike entertained, yet will exercise your mind.

The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes he didn't quite know what he was thinking about.
