Tracker220 by Jamie Krakover
4.0
I am very stingy with my 5 star ratings, so 4 stars is a really good book, one that I will recommend/read again.
In Jamie Krakover's debut novel we head to a not so distant future where technology has not only gotten smaller and faster...it is not quite literally, part of your brain. And as so many of us feel now...you can't ever turn it off, not completely.
When Kaya's tracker malfunctions, she learns that maybe the "rebels" or Ghosts, are not the enemy, and that she may have deeper ties to this group than she ever imagined.
A very enjoyable, engaging read that gives you pause and makes you think about your own technology dependency. While there is romance, and a light love triangle, it is def PG and thus suitable for those just dipping their toes into the YA world, and the romance is not the main storyline. Add in a strong female character who is does not need others to rescue her, and it is a wonderful book for those girls who want to move out of Middle Grade and into YA.
Can't wait to see what Ms. Krakover brings us next!
