From Klausner's review,This dark dystopian thriller will remind readers of Big Brother in Huxley's 1984 and Firemen in Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451.

4.5 stars I enjoyed this book and the idea behind it. It was a quick read - as Chase and Ember were running/hiding the majority of the book. A lot of action but there is also a story here. You learn about the life Chase has had since he left for Chicago (before the war), how things progressed whe...

I loved this book. Loved loved loved this book. I started it last night and could barely put it down to go to sleep, leaving me only a handful of pages to read today while I ate my lunch. Article 5 takes place in the future- it's dystopian and I loved the world Simmons created here. There is no l...

See my full review at Alluring ReadsFor me, this book was un-put-down-able! I read it over the coarse of a day and cursed distractions each and every time I had to put it down. The book starts off fast and the pace never slows. It's not overwhelming at all, and the tortured romance is a perfect back...

I want to go on record and say Chase Jennings is my new favorite book boyfriend. That boy is so broken and tortured, but deep down he just wants to save Ember. Mostly, throughout the whole book, I just wanted to give him a hug. Don't get me wrong, there were also times when I just wanted to smack hi...

Absolutely AMAZING! I couldn’t put this book down. This one was a one-sitting read for me.Ember lives in a world where the Bill of Rights has been dissolved and replaced with the Moral Statutes. Police officers have been replaced by soldiers, and what once might have resulted in a fine now means imp...

This book is loaded with adventure from the very first page! I loved the excitement and tension the author created for the reader. There are so many emotions. Fear. Anger. And a full blown adrenaline rush while you are the characters running for your life.What I enjoyed the most about this book is t...

This book's simplicity is what sets it apart from other dystopians -- and in a good way. To me, this book had the timeless feel of an old Western movie: good battles evil with some long trail rides in between. Though Article 5 was presumably set in the future, it could have taken place in the 1800s,...

The audio:Jenny Ikeda was fantastic reading Article 5. She just has a voice for audio, if that makes sense. She doesn't exactly sound like a teenager, which I know bothers some when listening to YA, but I don't think she sounds old either, more like early 20's. Sometimes that bugs me, but it real...
