FLYGIRL is a historical YA novel about a black woman who "passes" as white so she can join the WAC. I also really liked LUCY THE GIANT.

I'm kind of "dystopian fried" myself right now, but I really thought this one had lots of originality to it!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344704891037668456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-87141274488295822172013-05-19T06:37:30.383-07:002013-05-19T06:37:30.383-07:00I keep hearing fantastic things about this one!

Also, I'm intrigued to go look up Sherri Smith after everything you've said about her, I haven't come across anything else by her.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16115555672589550895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-71049803537145421342013-05-18T21:46:18.215-07:002013-05-18T21:46:18.215-07:00I've been dying to read this one.

So glad to hear it's original and has all the elements that I love about dystopians! Thank you for the review, I really can't wait to read it now!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00693881573322261240noreply@blogger.com
