Unbanded: A Clean YA Dystopian Novel

By Hope Ann

Anna wants her memories back. All of them.

___

I shouldn't be alive.

The Unbanded rebels did something to my mind before my brother rescued me with a city patrol...at least, that's what I was told when I woke up. There's a gap in my memory from the past year.

My brother says I should rest and recover. My handlers say my mind can be cured if I'm patient. They all say I should trust the emotional regulation of the band on my arm and the basan in my veins.

Except they aren't telling me everything.

Maybe they're right to mistrust me.

All I know is I was on a mission. A mission that isn't complete. A mission that holds answers about who I am, the bands we all wear, and the rebels' supposed plan to use them against us.

I've forgotten something important, and there's no time for patience.

I need to know what happened. What I did and why. Otherwise, I may find myself helping my enemies.

Or worse-betraying my friends.

If you enjoy the action and stakes of Hunger Games and the setting vibes of City of Ember, you will love the characters and world of Unbanded. Pick up your copy today to discover the truth hidden behind the experiments on Anna's mind.
