Variant by Robison Wells

This is a Golden Sower nominee for NEXT year (2014-2015).  What an exciting story.  Benson Fisher has been in foster care almost his entire life.  He is excited to get the opportunity to attend the "prestigious" Maxfield Academy.  But this is no ordinary school...its a trap.  There are no adults here, but the students must follow strict rules, someone is ALWAYS watching.  I liked that Benson continued to "buck" the system.  He was always questioning why the students continued doing what they were expected to do without fighting back.  He is determined to escape his new "home."  This book ends with a cliff hanger, but that is ok, because We now have the 2nd one in the series called "Feedback."  We also have both these books on for the ipod shuffles.
