The Declaration |
It is 2140, a world where having children can be a criminal act. Surplus Anna aims to become a Valuable Asset - but then she finds the pink notebook and so begins her diary. It is her first act of defiance and it will have dramatic consequences for Anna. While not as powerful as Noughts and Crosses (Malorie Blackman) this first novel for young adults with its bleak vision of a distopian future is very readable.
