dystopian young-adult

Leia lives on the Island, a world in which children leave their parents to take care of themselves when they are ten years old. Across this Island runs a wall that no one has ever crossed. The Fools living behind it are not amenable to reason – they believe in illusions. That’s what The Book says, the only thing left to the Eastern Islanders by their ancestors. 
But when a strange man washes ashore and Leia meets a Fool face to face, her life will never be the same. Is what she and her friends believe about the Island really true? 

Or is everyone in their world, in fact, a Fool?All Rights Reserved

Dear Diary by LuvWriter77

Leia finally has her freedom in having her own space. She comes across her old childhood diary while getting settled and wonders if her life will change if she keeps another one as an adult. Or maybe she will just manage to find a more seductive side to her that she didn't know existed. But will that mean she's just out to get whatever she can, or is there some sort of goal in sight? As she dives into the world of online dating, she comes to terms with the fact that it's okay for a woman to be a sexual being, and maybe she can still find love. But when online doesn't work out, she ends up with more of a surprise than she ever thought possible. She'd love nothing more than to forget days gone by. But when faced with part of her past, will she have the courage to attempt to fix it, or will she let the best thing in her life fall into shadow?

The Nightwatcher's Horizon by MatthewKaminski

Set after a war which had nearly wiped out all of civilization, this story follows a Nightwatcher, Cato-one of the few people put in place to protect the little bits of salvageable land. They guard their lands atop high medieval walls, never looking inward-never knowing what exactly they are protecting. When an army breaks through the front gate, Cato's life is completely changed. He awakes within the walls, in a place he has never seen. A girl named Adalyn finds him and takes him on an adventure that explores the ins and outs of the world, centered around the city he had protected all of his life: Prevnaar Tribeck. Cato will learn who his parents are, what the city he has protecting is actually like, and what its like to live a normal life in the world after the war-a world that is almost entirely broken to pieces. He will quickly learn one thing above all else: there is no shortage of death in this new world.

Outcasts by KatJWarren

Cassidy lives like most other under 21s - she follows the law. She knows that if she doesn't, she risks being taken away. Rebellious behaviour cannot be tolerated under any circumstances, especially with her parents watching her every move. The rules have been in place for a long time - the Democrats have beaten the Republicans in the New Elections for the past 60 years, with their names being the only recognisable aspects of their parties when comparing to the past. Anyone that chooses not to follow the rules can drop out and become what's known as an Outcast, but then you risk being imprisoned. While America seems to be running perfectly under these laws, a rebellion is stirring among the professionals. With secrets and lies in government and families alike to change the future of America forever, Cassidy finds herself caught up in the middle of the all out war that is about to break out. What she thought she knew about her world is about to change forever, bringing everyone she knows down with her. DISCLAIMER 2016/2017: This book is a few years old at this point, and due to the political uproar in American in 2016 I feel the need to make this abundantly clear. Outcasts takes place in a dystopian world in an undetermined year in the future, and the political parties depicted in this story - the Republicans and the Democrats - are in no way, shape or form a commentary on their real-life counterparts. I had very little knowledge of American politics when I wrote this story, and if I could go back and change their names I would. Throughout the story you will read of absurd flaws in both party agendas, and in no way did I ever intend to shame or defame the real life Republican and Democratic parties of America. See them as purely fictitious - that's what they are, after all.

Trace by Kirralt15

What if all that you ever knew was a lie? Years ago, the meteorites fell and destroyed the old ways of doing things. A new changed Government arose and the world around them changed as well. Mutants ruled for a few days before being taken away and hidden. Slaves became a sudden reality, marked savagely by the Destiny Children, a by-product of the Government, and sold to wealthy Slave Owners. Trace is one of these slaves, along with her mutant friends M and Glint, owned collectively by Master. Allivan. In a twist of events, she and her friends are thrust into the world of the Rebels by two mysterious characters- one of whom is her long-thought dead brother. Who can be trusted? And why is she just finding out about the lies that ruled her life for so long? Thank you so much to Mudkip_Used_Potato, my incredibly talented friend who designed Trace's beautiful cover!! All credit goes to her. I cannot express my gratitude for this in words but I will try- is saying thank you a million and one times enough? :)

Humanity will be led toward division and chaos through influence and control. Jordan's peers, blinded by deception, will desire nothing more than compliance.
