"Don't feel. Don't care."
That was now Reine's golden rule to everything and anything in her life.
If you can even call it living.
After her parents' tragic death, nothing seemed to matter to her anymore. Or maybe she was just too scared to care or love anything again.
Because she, her, and herself, was the very cause of her parents' death and her family's ruin. Her and her uncontrollable and dangerous power to turn anything she touches into dust.
But everything was not as simple as it seemed, for though she did not care for anyone, other people and groups had interest in her.
With the Diamonds, a group of world-class teenage thieves, suddenly wanting her to join them for no reason, and a mysterious group called Egregius, hot on her tail...
Could she strive to make valuable allies and attempt to survive? Or would giving up and running away always be the best option?
After all, everything eventually all end up in Ash and Dust.

They Made Us Monsters
In a world ruled by disease, fear, and government control, survival is no longer a choice-it's a rebellion. After a virus devastates the population, the U.S. government uses the crisis to seize control, turning teenagers into test subjects in brutal experiments meant to create super-soldiers. Those who are captured vanish into labs where their memories are wiped, their bodies are altered, and their identities are erased. Those who escape are left with scars-and the crushing guilt of the ones they couldn't save. Artemis Cross was never supposed to be a leader. But when she's captured and stripped of everything she knows, she becomes Subject 88, forced into a nightmare of pain, injections, and psychological warfare. Her mind begins to fracture-but one memory refuses to die: Z, the boy who once held her together, the boy she can't forget no matter how deep they dig into her brain. Outside the walls, Z is haunted by her absence. He can't eat, sleep, or breathe without seeing her face. As he and a fractured group of survivors drive through a collapsing America-riddled with graffiti, riots, and people fighting to the death over scraps-Z promises he'll find Artemis, even if he has to tear the system down piece by piece. But the deeper they get into the truth, the more twisted it becomes. Friends begin to betray each other. Love starts to fracture. And the world they thought they knew is far more dangerous than they ever imagined. Because this isn't just about surviving the system anymore. It's about burning it to the ground.Complete
