Review: Scythe

Scythe
by Neal Shusterman

Publisher: Simon and Schuster
Publication Date: November 22nd, 2016

Scythe, by Neal Shusterman is a creative and unique story about compassion. Two young teenagers, Citra and Rowan must compete to be part of an organization that maintains the population number regularly in a world where humanity is in control of everything. Neal Shusterman creates this beautiful relationship between the art of killing, Citra and Rowan. As an overall creative book, I would recommend this to anyone who likes scientific fiction and a little bit of young romance.

Jenn Bennett spins a beautiful and romantic tale filled with adventure and mystery. The tale is about an eighteen year old girl, Theodora, who is stranded in the middle of Europe with no money. Until her former "more-than-a-friend," Huck shows up from an expedition with her missing dad. Together they search for the mystery behind her dad's disappearance and Theodora learns the truth about the history of her family. Bennett writes a thrilling page-turner that will not let you put the book down.
