I have been dying to read this book so when I saw my library had it I knew I had to get my hands on it. I really enjoyed this story being told. It is divided into three parts Uncomfortably Numb this is where we meet Sloane, James and Miller. We get insight to the first person being taken by a handl...
Quick review for a somewhat quick read. I'm so conflicted reflecting on this book because there were quite a number of good ideas that I think Young had in parallels drawn in the book, but the execution and implication of many of those assertions seemed to fall by the wayside and actually bothered t...
I really enjoyed this book! I liked how everything worked towards the ending. I also liked how everything worked out with her friendship and her boyfriend. This book was an eye opener for me. I know how big this epidemic is and I am glad that someone is writing about it.
In this “gripping tale for lovers of dystopian romance” (Kirkus Reviews), true feelings are forbidden, teen suicide is an epidemic, and the only solution is The Program.Sloane knows better than to cry in front of anyone.

Then The Program reeled me in and I was hooked enough to want to finish. A slow, rather than rapid, start.It's about...
Sloane will do everything she can to remember, even kill herself. This is what the world has come to. In the effort to stop the epidemic of suicide, the government has implemented The Program. Depressed and suicidal teens go in and hollow strangers come out.Anyone who dares to cry in public, give in...
This was so much better than I expected. I haven't heard much about this series, but the ebook was available from the library so I figured I'd check it out. I am so glad that I did. This world was so crazy and intense. It reminded me of how I felt when I first started The Darkest Minds. I wondered...
Forget The Fault in Our Stars. This is the saddest book I have read to date. As soon as you start to read it, you'll realize why. I guess I should have figured a book which takes place in a world where teen suicide is commonplace would be sad, but I didn't foresee it being that sad. By the first fif...
