Publisher's Summary
Two teens must learn the "art of killing" in this Printz Honor-winning book, the first in a chilling new series from Neal Shusterman, author of the New York Times best-selling Unwind Dystology series.
A world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery: Humanity has conquered all those things and has even conquered death. Now Scythes are the only ones who can end life - and they are commanded to do so in order to keep the size of the population under control.
Citra and Rowan are chosen to apprentice to a scythe - a role that neither wants. These teens must master the "art" of taking life, knowing that the consequence of failure could mean losing their own.
Scythe is the first novel of a thrilling new series by National Book Award-winning author Neal Shusterman in which Citra and Rowan learn that a perfect world comes only with a heavy price.

Great premise
interesting philosophy and ideas well told. Unconventional star crossed lovers. A few twists and turns but comfortable and considered pace

Beautiful Story
The storyline & character development was perfectly balanced throughout the book. It was a rollercoaster of emotions, all perfectly intertwined with each other. On to the next book. ❤️

Interesting
A very interesting and original plot. I probably rate this book a 3.6 which rounds up to 4. I haven't yet raced off to buy the second book in the series but I might in the future.
