Review

This story is about a group of kids that live in a town where everything is perfect until one of them figures out something is up, and it isn’t a good thing either. What makes this even creepier and kind of scary is that the parents know something is up but they are in of it.

This is a really good thriller/sci-fi. It is told from the point of view of different children in the town. Each sees things around them a bit differently. When they find out what is going on in their sweet little town called “Serenity” I was totally surprised, just like they were. This is a super fast paced dystopian/sci-fi thriller.

Overall Book Score: excellent
