Connor, Risa, and Lev are running for their lives.
The Second Civil War was fought over reproductive rights. The chilling resolution: Life is inviolable from the moment of conception until age thirteen. Between the ages of thirteen and eighteen, however, parents can have their child "unwound," whereby all of the child's organs are transplanted into different donors, so life doesn't technically end. Connor is too difficult for his parents to control. Risa, a ward of the state is not enough to be kept alive. And Lev is a tithe, a child conceived and raised to be unwound. Together, they may have a chance to escape and to survive.
I read this book months ago. Though I still remember a lot of it. It was one of the first few books I read by Neal Shusterman. I remember starting the book and thinking it wasn't going to be very good but then falling in love with the book. Reading as these kids ran for their lives so they wouldn't have go through with being unwound. It was a chilling. And so exciting and just a really amazing book to read. I loved it a lot.
Sad thing about the summery though is it doesn't explain much which sucks cause there is a lot that happened in the book the was just really awesome and cool and that I wish I could talk about with out giving it away.
5 out of 5 stars on this book, it was amazing.
