Anna, sixteen years old, should never have been born. It is the year 2140, and people can live forever. No one wants another mouth to feed, so she lives in a Surplus Hall, where unwanted youths go to learn valuable lessons... at least she wasn't rejected at birth. One day, a new resident arrives. Anna's life is turned upside down. He says things about her parents and the Outside World that can't possibly be true... or can they? Exciting, passionate, and beautifully written, this dystopian novel is perfect for fans of The Hunger Games.
