Review: Fiscal Cliff Meet Fast-Track
Rating: 3 out of 5

Poor, struggling, young adult dystopia this isn't. Instead the main character has made it to the upper-class. Survival takes on another dress. Society and politics are the main course rather than grizzle from the garbage. Though I find the strong fem lead one of my criteria for a good book, this one is strong in a way I don't like from about halfway through the book. She easily gets caught up in the intrigue and loses her way often, becoming one of those she hates for the one she loves. Oh, yeah, there's romance and the angst involved.This is probably the worst book to read when you are financially the poorest you have ever been, when the country faces the fiscal cliff at midnight tonight, but in spite of all the above, the book has an interesting point of view and you find yourself rooting for humanity. And I am leaning to actually wanting to read book 2. Go figure. Tracy Rozzlynn is a great story teller.
