Gifted

400 years after humanity nearly wiped out the earth, a lone city remains: Paramus.

Its founders believed that it was their intelligence that saved them, and so in Paramus, intelligence is valued above all else.



Arin Wells is 17 years old and the only one who can take care of her family because she is Gifted. When the day comes that she must take the Criterion test, she will find out if she is smart enough to land them wealth and riches, or if her family will be exiled outside of the city's walls forever.



Fans of Veronica Roth's "Divergent" and Scott Westerfield's "Uglies" series will enjoy this fast paced, action packed novel set in a world not so different from our own.
