The Water Wars - Cameron Stracher

it's time for my.... VERY FIRST BOOK REVIEW. YEAH! 

okay. down to business. i just finished The Water Wars today, and i'll give you a basic synopsis of its contents. 

the world basically has no drinking water left. a girl named vera is lives with her brother will, and her father and sick mother. when she meets kai, a driller's son, her entire world gets turned upside down with crazy corporate criminals, water pirates, and environmentalists. 

all in all, it was a fairly entertaining read. it was something new in the world of dystopians, which was nice. the only thing i didn't like, however, was that i didn't learn the girl's name until the middle of chapter two. i was trying to figure out who was narrating and even once i figured it out i was still slightly confused. the plot is pretty basic - friend gets kidnapped they have to go save him from dying. so, i enjoyed it. i also recommend it if you're looking for something more original than the hunger games, or twilight, or harry potter. all the stories you've probably already read. so, if you don't want to buy it, then go rent it from the library most definitely! i sure wish i had done that...
