This is a blog about what Mrs. Light, the librarian at Christiansburg High School, is currently reading. All of the books I feature are available for check out here at school. If you have any questions or suggestions for me to read, please don't hesitate to ask.

WOW! I absolutely loved this book. The United States has had it’s Second Civil War, the Heartland War, and it was a battle between the Pro-Lifers and Pro-Choicers and everyone lost. Life is scared from conception to the age of 13. But between the ages of 13 and 18, parents can choose to have their children unwound. Harvest camps operate to harvest organs and body parts. They are then set aside for recipients. No part is wasted.
Conner’s parents see him as a troublemaker and sign the unwind order. Risa is a ward of the state and is being unwound to cut costs. Lev was born a tithe and has been preparing to be unwound his entire life. Circumstances bring these three teens together as they set off on a cross country journey to escape with their lives. Now they just have to make it to 18.
