Wither

358 pages

Best young adult dystopian fiction story I’ve read since Hunger Games (well, I haven’t read a lot, so you know.) It was beautifully written and the world was believable with the too young girls being forced into a polygamous marriage then becoming pregnant. It did creep me out that in this future, it happened more than it does now. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series to see if Rhine finds Rowan, if Linden ever gets a clue about his father and will there really be a antidote to the virus so Rhine and Gabriel can live HEA.
