"Wow! Shades of Fahrenheit 451 and Orwell's 1984. Painfully real and urgent. Read this book." â??Michael Grant, New York Times bestselling author of the Gone series

Bestselling author Joelle Charbonneau's eerily timely, high-stakes page-turner is destined to start important conversations at this particular moment in our history.

Meri Beckley lives in a world without lies. When she looks at the peaceful Chicago streets, she feels pride in the era of unprecedented hope and prosperity over which the governor presides.

Suddenly, Meri is faced with a choice between accepting the "truth" or embracing a world the government doesn't want anyone to seeâ??a world where words have the power to change the course of a country and where the wrong ones can get Meri killed… (mehr)

A modern day twist on Fahrenheit 451. Super strong female protagonist who, when she opens her eyes, is able to see the truth & power words truly have. I will admit when I first started reading the book, I was skeptical, but then the story started to flow even faster and I was unable to put it down...and wouldn't you know, a CLIFFHANGER! Favorite quote "Words have power. They change minds. They inspire and create fear. Words shape ideas--they shape our world--..."

Very powerful, especially in this day and age of "fake news". Highly recommend this title, especially to HS ELA Ts. ( )

This was a cool book with an interesting plot, but I didn't really connect with the characters. I'm planning on reading the sequel, but this was meh for me. ( )

Chicago teen Meri Beckley's pride of living in a land of peace, prosperity, and truth crumbles when questions following her mother's death reveal buried facts, especially that words can have great power. ( )
