This book could be true to our future.  The government passes a law that all people get an implant in their arm, to control them.  This book was scary a bit for me and exciting as well.  I was concerned for Brooklyn and her friends safety.  What would it be like to wake up from a coma to a world where the government is controlling people this way?   I liked this book and since Anne is a new author for me, I will see what else she writes.
