The Island
"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.

The Versions That Shouldn't Exist

After barely making it out alive, Alyssa, Ezra, and Oliver crash into Level Four-an unstable, corrupted realm made of shattered simulations and discarded clones. Here, every room holds a memory that shouldn't exist, and every shadow could be another version of them... more broken, more dangerous, and more desperate to survive. When Alyssa comes face-to-face with a twisted version of herself-one who knows things she hasn't even begun to understand-she's forced to ask the question she's never dared to face: What if I'm not the original? As loyalties crack and reality begins to fold, they'll have to fight more than the system. They'll have to fight themselves. Because the most dangerous enemy isn't what's outside the door. It's what you see when you open it... and it looks just like you.Complete

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.
