Unwind - Neal Schuseterman

Its far in the future- after the second civil war waged between the Pro-Choice and Pro-Life armies. Young Conner discovers that he himself is scheduled to be "unwound". Unwinding is an honorable action according to adults, but it is a terrible fate for the young so Conner decides to go AWOL. If he can make it under ground until he is 18, the law can't touch him.

Conner begins to discover other AWOL Unwinds in his struggle for survival, not all as lucky as he. I really enjoyed this book and couldn't put it down, not only for the plot and task, but also the questions that it raised for me. Very interesting read!
