Blurb:
In dystopian America,
sixteen-year-old Kaleigh finds out quickly what having a big mouth and not
enough brains to keep it shut can earn you. A one-way ticket to the work camps
that no one even knows exists.
Nuclear war has ravished the nation, and a century later, the survivors are living in an entirely new world. In a society where everything is decided for you, from where you work to who you marry, dissidence is not taken lightly.
But, even inside the camps, Kaleigh’s fiery spirit refuses to be extinguished. In a single moment of defiance, she manages to spark a riot that ignites into a full-blown rebellion.
With growing numbers counting on her, not just for their freedom, but for their very lives, two different boys vying for her heart, and trouble brewing from within the camp itself, can Kaleigh find a way to step up and become the leader everyone is counting on her to be, or will even the most carefully laid plans come crashing down around her?

My Thoughts: I'm a big fan of Jamie. I find her writing fresh and witty. This novel does not disappoint. Plenty of action in Vengeance, and humor!! I could not but help wonder if this was how it was during Nazi German days with its repressive government and totalitarian regime Kaleigh and Connor are the main characters I enjoyed, each are very likable. I also cried for Peter. This is a story that doesn't disappoint! Jamie as an awesome series going here!!
FIVE Happy Faces!!
