EVE By: Anna Carey Young Adult Literature

EVE By: Anna Carey
The year is 2032 and the world has been invaded by a deadly virus. Most of the population has been wiped out, and the girls and boys who survived the viruses have been sent off to boarding schools where they will stay until they are old enough to move into the City of Sand. Or so they are told. The night before eighteen-year-old Eve's graduation from her all-girls school she discovers what really happens to new graduates, and the horrifying fate that awaits her when she reaches the city. Fearing the worst, Eve flees the school and ventures into the wilderness where she encounters Caleb, a rebellious boy, escaped from a labor camp. He promises to protect Eve from the dangers of the wild, but when City soldiers begin to hunt them, Eve must choose between true love and her life. Ages 12 and up.
