When you turn 18 you're an offical "adult" and that's great, right? Not from where I come from. Once you turn 18, you die. Well, not everyone is killed. They draw only 25 names of boys and girls from my hometown who live. If you aren't picked then brace yourself to die. However, some have the option of joining the secret organization called the Remedy. Smart parents send their children there to train to defend themselves, like mine. I will admit it, at first I was totally against the fact of never seeing my parents again, but I have never been this brave and strong before until now. *********************** Katilynn Evans lives in a futuristic San Francisco re-named the Theory. A belief for past problems is over population. She and all the other 18 year olds in the Theory have to go to the government to receive a sign to determine whether of not they will be carrying on society or dying. Katilynn gets the least disirable choice and her parents send her away to a place to learn to defend herself. Katilynn has to remake herself into a new brave person, very different than the person she was before.

Marked

Four unmarked survivors. One totalitarian government. A fight to keep their humanity intact. 100 years into the future, the E-91 virus has thrust the world into chaos. For Rachel Wilson, survival hasn't come easy. For the last fifteen years, she's lived in the wilderness, just out of reach of the Council of Nations. Until one day, poachers--the section of law enforcement tasked with hunting the Unmarked--raid her home and she is forced to go on the run. Weary from the attack, but certainly not broken, she ventures into a dangerous world with only her fiery determination to survive. In what appears to be a stroke of good luck, she is rescued by an underground movement working towards bringing down the capital or die trying. Death over mark, that had always been the mantra. Because the alternative-becoming a mind-controlled soldier to fight the capital's war-was a fate worse than death. ***What other readers are saying about Marked*** "You've done a wonderful job of creating and molding this couple into real people. Now, they practically breathe!" -thebirdwhisperer "This is incredible! I was holding my breath for a second there because everything was so good and the action felt so rea!!!" -titanic123 "I rarely comment as I'm not very good with words. But I have to tell you I enjoyed your book so much. I cried and laughed, bit my nails and rooted the characters on as if they were my family." -leenafrog
