Seventy- five years ago, the American scientists found the cure to cancer, viruses, and any deadly epidemics. This American generation thrived, living up until old age without any pain. The future generation was given the same gift, but with something good there always comes bad. Males only lived until the age of twenty – five, women only until the age of twenty. With this, young girls are kidnapped and sold as brides; the chosen enter wealth and fame, while the un- chosen die. Rhine, sixteen, abducted, and sold to the House Governor, Linden, seeks to escape everyday of her life to go find her brother. However, with Linden’s father stalking and threatening her every move and time going by so fast there is no way she can escape. The most interesting part of the book is when Rhine is trying to escape during a hurricane. It made me wonder if she would make it or not or die. I could never let go of the book and was always shocked about what occurred afterwards. I believe that whoever loves to read tragedies and twisters will definitely love this book. Wither is the type of science fiction book that wraps all elements together into one to make you feel a part of the story.
