Martians

Martians by Blythe Woolston, 216 pages

Zoe is graduating early, unexpectedly, with the rest of her class.  Fortunately, unlike many of her class she is being recommended for employment at both AllMART and Q-MART.  On the same day, her mother announces that she is moving so she is glad that Zoe will be able to take care of herself.  Zoe ends up employed at AllMART and living with a small group of young adults in an abandoned strip mall.  Zoe isn’t sure what she wants exactly, but she knows she wants more than this.  This is a really bizarre dystopian future story but I liked it.  Teen fans of dystopia should read this.
