At sixteen, could you run the world? Could you look after the food, the water, the electricity, the government... the children?
Evie Ballentrae isn't equipped to deal with any of that. But like everyone else her age, she doesn't have a choice.
'The Fan and The Things That Hit It,' is the Part I of The Sleep.

"At first I thought it was a joke. Some sort of well-orchestrated, viral meme thing. An overly elaborate flash mob.

But after a few hours it was serious, after a day it was scary, the weeks passed and it was terrifying, and now...

Now we have to make some serious decisions about how to live, and more importantly, what to live for."

The Island by AmyJohnson895

"This is The Island, a prison designed for minors like me- too young to be executed, too old to be reformed, and too much of a stain on humanity to let exist. It was 'the answer' to the growing crime rate resulting from a world that was falling apart. The details evade me, but there is one thing I know. The water doesn't seem as scary as it did before." When Jordyn wakes up in the middle of a tropical forest in the mouth of a cat too big to be real, she decides this isn't how she wants to die. The Island has other plans, though. It was designed to kill her, and it will bring out every gun in the arsenal to do so. Her life becomes a game of survival from the mutant and venomous animals, severe temperature changes, and impossible weather scenarios that exist in this government manufactured prison. The twist? She has no idea who she is, where she came from, or why she committed first-degree arson. In this mixture of "The Hunger Games" and "Maze Runner", Jordyn has to unravel the truth before nature kills her- or die not knowing.

Earth, After ✔️ by talia-v

Some fates are worse than death--survival is one of them. In the two hundred years since humanity left the Earth's surface to live in the sky, life on the ground faded to a myth, a tragic memory from which they severed themselves to survive. They floated above continents turned to sand and lands swallowed by the seas, watched storm after storm rage against their cities and their monuments until they broke apart the last vestiges of civilization in penance for generations of human greed. As a lightning harvester charged with flying her ship into these storms for energy, Raina has seen more of the planet than most. She has spent her entire life soaring above its craters and scars, studying the gaping wounds of human devastation, as she honed her skills and became the youngest captain in storm-chaser history. Her ship has flown for generations. Her skills are unparalleled. But none of that matters the day they go down. ~ Praise for Earth, After: "I'm so not ready for this ending.

Kadota (Love Trilogy) by Lisa_Evette

In the quiet desert village of Dey, living among the sand dunes and mirages, existed an anomaly - me. I was different, born without the ability to read, write or keep long memories. My scientist father hailed my uniqueness as a miracle, but my life was far from ordinary. To the village, I was just an oddity, a walking puzzle with missing pieces. My only solace was my best friend, always standing by me, his unspoken love for me etched in his affectionate gaze. We lived under a cruel regime with a population no more than a hundred. Every year, one of us would be chosen on the Counting Day, a ceremonious banishing ritual, to become yet another outcast to the floating prison island far off in the ocean - our village's dreaded version of population control. Our past criminals, defiant to government, and more terrifyingly, our loved ones gone missing, were thought to inhabit that island, their fate, a terrifying enigma. This year, as the Counting Day approached unrelentingly, and my loved one's life rested on borrowed time, I made a decision. I volunteered to be casted out. It was my turn to face the unknown with a hidden purpose - to locate my lost father who was sent there years ago.

Silent Rebellion by TheOnly_MysteryGirl

Keep in mind this was my first story. Imagine being trapped in a world that decides everything for you -- how much you eat, how much sleep you get, who you love, where you live, even when you die. So when Evelyn is chosen along with 47 other "young leaders," what will happen when she meets them? And when the impossible happens, what will happen to those young leaders? (Think Hunger Games mixed with Matched mixed with a little bit of Divergent, as those were my inspirations as I wrote)

61 Seconds by JuliaNap

In the desolate remains of a war-destroyed world, only one city survives: York. Tightly controlled and isolated, the city has rules: for sixteen kids, turning eighteen means recruitment. No exceptions. Quiet and curious, Elodie Mikelson, lingering at the edges of her carefully lived life, is paralyzed when Mr. Reiki calls her name at the ceremony. Now thrust into long, grueling days of physical and mental hardship she quickly learns survival isn't just about how straight you can shoot a gun. It's about mindset. Determination. Who you can trust and who you can't. Her captain, Mac, doesn't make it any easier. Big and commanding, he seems to have taken a special interest in Elodie. Forming friends and enemies along the way, the girl from York begins to disappear. Someone stronger begins to take her place. But just as Elodie begins to adapt, she is thrown off course again. Taken by a mysterious organization that seems to know her better than she knows herself, Elodie is thrown into a game of even higher stakes. Thrust into a plot to steal the government's little black book known as SONA, she learns it is the government's master file, rumored to contain the city's deepest secrets-and its most vulnerable weaknesses. To succeed, she must escape the inescapable. A prison locked tight behind concrete, surveillance, and locks. With only a 61 second window to escape, she risks everything. With the clock ticking and untold truths, hidden secrets and deceptive lies, Elodie has to decide what's right and who she can trust before it's too late. With one shot at freedom and only 61 seconds to take it, Elodie must choose: to stay loyal to an order she's known all her life or trust the instinct that's kept her alive.
