Where do you go when nowhere is safe?

Sixteen years after a deadly virus wiped out most of Earth's population, the world is a perilous place. Eighteen-year-old Eve has never been beyond the heavily guarded perimeter of her school, where she and two hundred other orphaned girls have been promised a future as the teachers and artists of the New America. But the night before graduation, Eve learns the shocking truth about her school's real purpose--and the horrifying fate that awaits her.

Fleeing the only home she's ever known, Eve sets off on a long, treacherous journey, searching for a place she can survive. Along the way she encounters Arden, her former rival from school, and Caleb, a rough, rebellious boy living in the wild. Separated from men her whole life, Eve has been taught to fear them, but Caleb slowly wins her trust . . . and her heart. He promises to protect her, but when soldiers begin hunting them, Eve must choose between true love and her life.

In this epic new series, Anna Carey imagines a future that is both beautiful and terrifying. Readers will revel in Eve's timeless story of forbidden love and extraordinary adventure.


I need to read this book soon. The third book in the series comes out on April 2nd! I have seen some mixed reviews on Goodreads but other than that I haven’t really heard anything about it. I love post-apocalyptic books and this sounds pretty interesting. I plan to read it soon because I would really like to read the whole series. The one problem I have is that she has been separated from men her whole life. Every time I see a book like that I have a hard time believing it. I know it’s a dystopian and anything can happen but still. That is one thing I have a hard time grasping.


Have you read this book? What do you think of it?
