Enclave

Title: Enclave
Author: Ann Aguirre
Pages: 272
Language: G
Content: PG
Level: Middle/High
Recommendation: Must Read

Summary: New York City has been decimated by war and plague, and most of civilization has migrated to underground enclaves, where life expectancy is no more than the early 20's. When Deuce turns 15, she takes on her role as a Huntress, and is paired with Fade, a teenage Hunter who lived Topside as a young boy. When she and Fade discover that the neighboring enclave has been decimated by the tunnel monsters—or Freaks—who seem to be growing more organized, the elders refuse to listen to warnings. And when Deuce and Fade are exiled from the enclave, the girl born in darkness must survive in daylight, in the ruins of a city whose population has dwindled to a few dangerous gangs. As the two are guided by Fade’s long-ago memories, they face dangers, and feelings, unlike any they’ve ever known.

Review: Another dystopian hit. Boys and girls alike will enjoy this book . There is a lot of action to keep male readers enthusiastic about the story. I enjoyed the settings in this book and what the characters went through in each setting. For anyone who enjoys dystopian novels, this is a great read!!
