Loved it! I was drawn into the story right away. Not a happy one, to be sure, but compelling and beautifully written.
It was okay. If you have a younger student hoping for a romantic story in which nothing physical happens more than a hug or some handholding, then it's the story for you!
Sunday Fowler is the third of six and feels like she is often forgotten. In this story, she befriends new people, learns to love her family and balances her desire to stand out with not hurting new friends. A cute read.
Not my normal type of art, but it is GORGEOUS. So intricate.
In this dystopia, debt is encoded into our very systems. You are either a Patron or a Proxy. If you are a Patron, you live a lux life with the best food and medical benefits, the best schooling. However, if you do mess up, it's not you that gets punished. It is your proxy. In return for taking your punishment for you, a Proxy gets some schooling and other benefits. Knox and Syd are connected by the Patron/Proxy relationship. Knox screws up a lot, Syd just wants to get by. But when Knox makes a huge mistake, it may end up changing both their lives drastically.
I think my favorite part about this story is that one of the main characters is gay, and it's not "the issue." The cover also may perhaps be a bit of white-washing, as Syd is black. I really enjoyed this book a lot, and am interested in reading its sequel (part one of a duet.)
