Consensus: Part 1 - Citizen
In a society where morals are determined by a public opinion system, and social rating is the currency, truth can be a dangerous notion. Sixteen-year-old Rena has few memories of her childhood before adoption. The voice of the man who raised her. A forest teeming with wildlife. Mountains reaching up to a blue sky. The problem-they're not real. Such things don't exist in Esh, a self-governed metropolis shielded from the harsh environment by a transparent canopy. And beyond the city lie only the Barrens, an endless wasteland of fog and freezing rain. When Rena's violent instincts save the lives of her friends, her delusional past begins disrupting her prospects for the future. To find the source of her impulses, she'll have to sort through the fragments in her mind. What awaits is a connection between her true identity, the city's forgotten history, and the secret war being waged beneath the surface of her polite society.Concluída
Daughter of the Kept (First Book of The Kept Saga)
Dessa has spent her entire life confined under her parents' roof, molded to embody the rigid ideal of what a woman should be. But when she learns of the freedom and opportunities her friend from another country enjoys, she begins to question the life that has been forced upon her - and dreams of breaking free. Her chance comes when she enrolls at an academy after years of isolation and homeschooling. There, Dessa uncovers unsettling truths her family has hidden from her: secrets about the world beyond her sheltered walls, and the role she was never meant to play. As her knowledge and abilities grow, she earns a place among the Stellars - the elite few destined to shape the future. Yet her path twists into something far greater, revealing that she is not merely one of them, but something else entirely. Something the world is not ready for. What is her family hiding, and why was she denied the truth for so long? What lies beyond the world she thought she knew? And when the veil is lifted, what will Dessa become?
