This is like a teen version of The Handmaid's Tale. It's aimed at younger audiences, only decently well written, and the plot only varies slightly to the premise of Margaret Atwood's classic. In New America women are governed by men. Young women from the time of their first blood can never be alone and are provided a government chaperone to help mold them into subservient young women. Their education is subpar and the only thing their future holds is marriage or spinsterhood as a chaperone. Sound familiar? I thought the ending was rushed and their were some big plot holes. Fast paced and easy to read but could have used some more work.
