Wither.

Hmm....where to start? Wither by Lauren Destefano was not bad....actually pretty good if I must say! I know, I have failed to have negative feedback in any of my reviews, but I can't help myself!
To start off, Wither is yet another book about a fucked up future (excuse), but this one has a little bit of a twist. This less than ideal future was actually created as a result of mankind's efforts to fix the world. You see, a cure was found for cancer, and STD's, and plenty of other stubborn diseases of our time. But there was an unpredicted twist to the cure. The generation that first received the treatment lived long and happy lives, but the generations following them certainly did not. For some reason that is unknown, every single female born after Generation 1 die at age twenty, and the males at twenty-five. Yes, a morbid concept, but extremely suspenseful! This flaw in humankind just gives the people a reason to live life to it's fullest (if you can afford to do so).
Anyway, the main character, Rhine, was swept up and taken into a life of glamorous polygamy (yep, i know). You see, polygamy is popular in these futuristic days, for they are trying to make as many babies as possible in the short amount of time that they have. The problem is, Rhine doesn't want this life. She already has a brother that she loves. She is content with her un-glamorous life. So she has to find a way out.
Exciting, eh? For those of you who liked Matched, Wicked Lovely, or Entwined, this book is perfect for you!

P.S. I'm in the process of reading Across the Universe by Beth Revis. A review will be coming soon!
