This book is a very emotional, fast paced read that hooks you in the first few pages and doesn't let go! In this futuristic dystopian society, in order to keep peace within the Tower, everyone is a slave to a wristband that evaluates the amount of positive and negative thoughts they think and converts that into a number. Citizens with lower numbers are treated inferior to the higher numbered citizens. Free thinking is discouraged and anyone who asks too many questions or tries to act outside the guidelines is reprimanded by the Knights who keep order in the tower.
