You are Mine by Janeal Falor

A new dystopian book for lovers of The Hunger Games and The Divergent Series. An amazing book about a young girl fighting against the norms that society has placed around her. Serena just turned seventeen which is an exciting time for most young girls. However, Serena lives in a patriarchal society where at seventeen, girls are married off based on the magic flowing in their blood to birth powerful warlocks for their master since females cannot use the magic. Her father is one of the worst out there ready to marry her off to the highest bidder, and he does just that. Will Serena ever have a chance at deciding her own destiny and a chance at finding love?

Image result for you are mine by Janeal FalorThe description of the book pulled me in, and I was not disappointed as I read this intriguing novel. I absolutely loved Serena's relationship with her family and especially her sisters. It brought depth to Serena's character as she made bold moves and decisions that could effect not only her future but each of her sisters' futures too. Seeing the world from Serena's point of view was at time ironic, hilarious, sad and/or crazy. Her worldview was so brainwashed and different from the way people view life in America nowadays, which was very realistic and eyeopening at the same time.

I actually found this book for free on amazon through bookbub.com. They are a free website service that email you about books from the genres that you pick when the books are on sale for cheaper than normal or completely free.  It is a great way to find new authors and series to read by trying an excerpt of their work for cheap before buying the rest.  Concerning, Janeal Falor, I will be looking to buy the rest of her books in the future.  It looks like this author is relatively new and her books are mostly online or ebooks. Let's change that; I want to see more print books out there! Share with your friends who love these types of novels.
