Book rec: The End of the Line by Angela Cerrito

I picked up another YA book a couple of weeks ago; The End of the Line, by Angela Cerrito. This was supposed to be one of those "I'll read a few chapters of this and then go do other things" books; then the sonuvabitch locked me in its sights and had me in two pages, and I couldn't put it down until it was done. What was going on? Was it a reform school? A dystopian future? A dreamstate? The psychology of it is so thick that I found myself gasping after every chapter, setting the book down and having a heart-thudding few moments of what would I do, what would I have done if I this were happening to me. It's like an unintentional Choose Your Own Adventure, every chapter. Highly, highly recommended.

I love YA, and that sounds like just the type of book I'd like, but arg! No kindle version available. D: I just can't buy physical books anymore. Hopefully it'll come out in ebook form soon!

O_O You are KIDDING. No Kindle edition? That's a crime for a book as good and new as this!

*hits "request publisher put this on Kindle button" pronto*

I got mine from the library, so, that's a great place to start for anyone who wants to read it.

Yeah, I clicked the link, too. Hopefully that actually has some effect!
