A world ravaged by apocalyptic natural disasters nearly two hundred years ago. Split, there is the North Country and the South Country, separated by a strip of ocean.
Our story focuses around Ali, a girl from the North Country. Not much is known about the South Country or how they train their young, but the North had the Camp. Each youth is required to complete the three Stages of training at the Camp before learning a skill. Being Skilled means being successful and being successful means living longer and happier. The Unskilled workers - those removed from the Camp before graduating - are stuck with the undesirable jobs. Transportation, food, maintenance. Most parents ingrained it into their children to avoid this.
When Ali arrives at the Camp, shes determined to fit in, make friends, and do all the things her parents told her. However, things change when she learns of a rebellion in the outer regions of North Country from fellow Campers who'd lived in the more-populated city. When she personally meets a Rogue, she is suddenly pulled into a fight she'd not sure she wants to participate in.
Will the Rogues change her mind? Or will she stay faithful to the familiar leadership of the City?

The Divided
#9 in UTOPIA 3/3/19 I couldn't take my eyes off of Dean as he stared at the glimmering stars in the night sky. "I believe the story of our lives is already written in the stars. Our destiny is already given to us. The end of our lives will always end the same, no matter what we try to do to change it." I watched a strand of his blond hair fall over his ear. "What does that mean?" "It means that if you are the person who is destined to take the two parts of this country and bring them together, then it will happen one way or another." His heterochromia eyes found mine and I found myself entranced by them. "And Mel, by the looks of things right now, I'd say your story has started and you are already working towards your destiny." ** One country. Two nations. After the country split in two, the nations renamed themselves the Ameliorates and the Extricates. The Ameliorates live in a community full of stability and order. Melody Sharpe is the daughter of the Ameliorates' leaders. All her life she was told that the Extricates lived in a place full of chaos and destruction. What happens when she finds herself questioning everything she had once been taught? What does she do when she meets Dean Martin--the son of the Extricate leaders--who tells her that everything she knows is a lie? Why did the Extricates really split away from the Ameliorates? Why do the Extricates fear the Ameliorates more than anything else? Are the Extricates really the "bad" side? Melody starts asking questions--something she isn't supposed to do--and it might just lead her into the middle of a war.Complete
Silent Rebellion
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)Complete
