When I began reading OHIO 2029 by D.A. Winstead I have to admit, I was a little uncertain about whether or not I would like the story.  OHIO 2029 is a story set a mere 15 years in the future after an economic collapse that occurs a year from now and is attributed to the political split already evident in our country.  The collapse is blamed on the liberals and the conservatives take over placing liberals in recovery zones reminiscent of ghettos or internment camps throughout the country.  The idea of such a thing in our own country left me feeling a bit uncomfortable.  That said, as I got further into the book I was able to get past that unsettling feeling because the story was very well written and the ideas that it addresses, while unsettling, were very thought provoking.Stuck in the middle of this struggle are Mary Catherine Marshall, daughter of a Red State Senator and Maddy Garner the son of Blue State advocates.  The two met as children and have been in love ever since.Despite the initial unsettling feeling I thoroughly enjoyed reading OHIO 2029 and would recommend it to anyone.
