asked:
Is this anything like The Testing, or Divergent, or The One, or Matched, or The Hunger Games, or The Maze, or the horribleness of the "chooser" that was a thing on the old Apple computers that actually had to do with printing but you would never know it from the name?

After reading the novel, it's kind of a combo between Divergent and George Orwell's 1984 but with Dekker's own creativity thrown in. Loved that it included the idea of self discovery, although the decline in women's rights was painful to read at times. Overall, worthwhile to check out if you like dystopian novels.

Hey Amy. It is a dystopian novel so I think it has similar elements to a few of the novels you listed, though I hope it has it's own unique feel. I tried to focus more on the theme of the novel, verse the dystopian setting.
As far as the "chooser" goes, I pray it's nothing like that! Haha.
