by Lauren DeStefano
The first book in an exciting new series by first time author Lauren DeStefano.
"Starred Review. DeStefano has an observant and occasionally pitiless eye, chronicling the cruelties, mercies, and inconsistencies of her young characters." - Publishers Weekly
"Many will appreciate the intense character drama; however, the world building is underdeveloped, with holes in internal logic." - Booklist
"Despite some holes in the plot, particularly in the rushed ending, Rhine's fight for freedom against the clock - and the dissecting table - will leave readers eager for the sequel. Give this one to fans of The Hunger Games trilogy or Ally Condie's Matched." - Kirkus
"Wither is an exceptional novel that begins with a bang and doesn't let you go--it's gut-wrenching, shocking, incredible, and completely and utterly absorbing all at once…. DeStefano is a fearless writer, and though it is firmly its own book, Wither will remind readers of Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale." - TheCompulsiveReader.com
