Striking out into the wasteland with nothing but her baby sister, a handful of supplies, and a rumor to guide her, sixteen-year-old midwife Gaia Stone survives only to be captured by the people of Sylum, a dystopian society where women rule the men who drastically outnumber them, and a kiss is a crime. In order to see her sister again, Gaia must submit to their strict social code.
Definitely a satisfying sequel. I loved it as much as I loved Birthmarked. And there wasn’t a love triangle, but a love square! These are the best dystopian novels out there. Can’t wait to read the final installment, Promised, when it’s released this Fall.

A free ebook that tells the short story of what Leon goes through to go after Gaia after he pushes her out of the Enclave so she can run to the Dead Forest. I loved that it was free - pretty awesome that the author did this - but I wanted more information. However, I haven’t read Prized yet, so there may be the information I want in there.

I’ve really been on the YA dystopia with a female heroine reads lately and this was one of the best so far. It had just the right amount of love story, thrilling action and a hint of the rebellion for me. I can’t wait to read the sequel to see what happens to Gaia and Leon and how they’ll come together and conquer the Enclave! :)
