<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Although Kyla has recovered some of her memories, she is not sure how they all fit together, whether she was really a terrorist, or why she is able to remember anything at all from before she was "slated"--but she is determined to find the answers.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Perfect for fans of the dystopian settings of <i>The Hunger Games </i>and <i>Divergent</i>, the gripping second installment of the Slated trilogy is a riveting psychological thriller set in a future where violent teens have their memory erased as an alternative to jail. <p/>When Kyla was slated, her memory was erased for good.<br>Except it wasn't.<br>Not completely.<br>She remembers years of working with Antigovernment Terrorists.<br>She remembers acts of violence against the Lorders.<br>But perhaps most important--she remembers Ben.<br>If he's alive, Kyla's about to play a dangerous game between the Lorders and the AGT.<br>Then again, every move in her new life is a gamble.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>The Slated Trilogy by Teri Terry <p/>"One of the most brilliant, mind-blowing, clever books I have ever read...Amazing. Absolutely amazing."--<i>The Guardian</i> <p/>Even if you're sick of teenage dystopias, this paranoid mind-wiping novel will thrill you. . . . Excellent. . . . Kyla's erased memory works wonderfully as a storytelling device.--io9 <p/>"Terry's debut is a suspenseful page-turner with a highly sympathetic and strong female protagonist. A perverse sense of claustrophobic dread grows throughout the novel. . . . Will have readers waiting eagerly for a sequel."--<i>Booklist </i> <p/>"Terry's world is remarkably like today's. . . . The romance and politics keep suspense ratcheted up. . . . Intriguing--readers will be on tenterhooks for the next one."--<i>Kirkus Reviews</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Teri Terry has lived in France, Canada, Australia and England at more addresses than she can count, acquiring four degrees, a selection of passports and a silly name along the way. <p/>Moving constantly as a child, teenager and also as an adult has kept Teri on the outside looking in much of her life. It has given her an obsession with characters like Kyla in Slated, who don't belong or find themselves in unfamiliar places. <p/>Teri recently left her job with Buck's libraries in England to write full-time and complete her research MA on the depiction of terrorism in recent young adult dystopian literature. <p/>In the UK Slated won the North East Teenage Book Award, the Leeds Book Award, the Angus book award, the Portsmouth Book Award, the Rotherham book award and the Rib Valley Book Award, and is shortlisted for many others. It was the most voted for YA title in the 2012 international Edinburgh Book Festival Anobii First Book Award. In the US it is a Junior Library Guild selection. <p/>Follow Teri on Twitter @TeriTerryWrites <p/>Website: http: //teriterry.com/ <p/>Tumblr: http: //teriterrywrites.tumblr.com, Twitter: https: //twitter.com/TeriTerryWrites, <br>Facebook page: http: //facebook.com/TeriTerryAuthor <p/>Calendar of events: go to Teri's website is http: //teriterry.com/calendar-of-events/ <p/>A group blog for children's writers: Notes From the Slushpile, http: //notesfromtheslushpile.blogspot.com/
