In the Society, everyone is happy.
Drea Young has grown up living in the shadow of the wall. Not only does she know there’s nothing left beyond it, but she also knows that it’s there to protect the citizens of the United Society of the Reestablishment. That doesn’t stop her from feeling trapped, though. Why? Everything in her world is perfect. There’s no more struggle, no war or crime, no conflict.
No choice.
Drea has always thought she was alone in her blasphemous thoughts, but then she gets to know Jerrick Carter and realizes she couldn’t be more wrong. Quiet and brooding - and incredibly gorgeous - Jerrick helps her understand not just the world around her, but herself as well, and the more Drea learns about the Society, the more desperate she becomes to break free.
But after a lifetime of being controlled, she isn’t sure if she’s strong enough to leave everything she knows and loves behind....

Drea started off as a strong female character. An independent thinker who innately knew something was amiss in her walled in - saccharine perfect - post apocalyptic society. But it didn't take long for her character to devolve into a Marsha Brady-esque woman child who became progressively more obsessed with her new boyfriend as the story progressed.
She toggled annoyingly between utterly prudish and ultra sexually charged. No solid character arch from one to another, just a constant barrage of neurotic, whiney indecision. This 20 year old character was behaving like a 14 year old - at best.
The author's writing style was adequately descriptive and she did a fair job at world building - but this effort was lost in the insipid overuse of the word "twisted" and multiple references to Drea's digestive reactions to almost every situation.
Being a story junky who rarely gives up, I really wanted to get to the end of this plot line - but I couldn't handle all the distractions. The reader didn't help as half her inflections were up-speak when interpreting a definitive sentence or thought.
I am rarely this disappointed by writing style and character dialogue. I truly couldn't bare listening anymore. I suppose it could be argued that I am several decades beyond the target YA audience - but some of the best books I've read have been YA.
If you are looking for original plot lines, well-crafted writing and relatable characters - this book is not for you.
Thin plot line, Sophomoric take on mature themes
