The Handmaid’s Tale meets Blood Red Road in Glass Arrow, the story of Aya, who lives with a small group of women on the run from the men who hunt them, men who want to auction off breeding rights to the highest bidder.
In a world where females are scarce and are hunted, then bought and sold at market for their breeding rights, 15-year old Aya has learned how to hide. With a ragtag bunch of other women and girls, she has successfully avoided capture and eked out a nomadic but free existence in the mountains. But when Aya’s luck runs out and she’s caught by a group of businessmen on a hunting expedition, fighting to survive takes on a whole new meaning.

My Thoughts:
This book sounds really interesting! I'm interested to see if this book is dystopian or is just set in another world. Just by reading the description, I think I am really going to like Aya and I'm excited to read this book next year!

Good writers address the society’s problem as a character's problem; so people must feel like the only way for an answer is to buy the book and read it.
