Pure
Julianna Baggott’s brilliant, chilling tale is set in a world gone mad. Pure opens following the Detonations, a catastrophe from which those who survived were separated into two camps. The Wretches, like Pressia, bear scars, burns and other physical damages, and they must show fealty to the militias that use them mercilessly. And then there are the Pures….
Tucked safely inside the Dome, Partridge thinks continually about this confinement designed, according to his father, a leader, to protect their healthy, superior bodies until it is deemed safe to emerge. But Partridge has reason to believe his mother is still alive somewhere “out there.” And when he escapes, and he and Pressia meet, their worlds shatter all over again….

Another "after the disaster" book
February 29, 2012
This book is entertaining but somewhat less imaginative than many other of the post-apocalypse stories and series out there. Some innovative ideas (nanotech elements to the bombs) but charachter development was weak and there were several side stories left unexplored. A good book for a teen, but those adult readers who like this genre will find it somewhat 'light'.

Excellent!

Excellent read for teens through adults. Somewhat similar to the "hunger games". I could not put this book down and read all 400 pages in 2 days. Now waiting for the next two books in this series to become available!
