About this ebook

"DIVIDED WE FALL delivers cover-to-cover action, intrigue and suspense, all with a gut-punch of an ending that'll leave you begging for the next installment." -- Brad Thor, author of THE LAST PATRIOT

Danny Wright never thought he'd be the man to bring down the United States of America. In fact, he enlisted in the Idaho National Guard because he wanted to serve his country the way his father did. When the Guard is called up on the governor's orders to police a protest in Boise, it seems like a routine crowd-control mission ... but then Danny's gun misfires, spooking the other soldiers and the already fractious crowd, and by the time the smoke clears, twelve people are dead. The president wants the soldiers arrested. The governor swears to protect them. And as tensions build on both sides, the conflict slowly escalates toward the unthinkable: a second American civil war.With political questions that are popular in American culture yet rare in YA fiction, and a provocative plot that asks what happens when the states are no longer united, Divided We FAll is Trent Reedy's very timely YA debut.

So I read his in my school library and I just sat there like, wtf his is our hero? Like he opened fire on protesters and gets away with it. For me personally it was cringy, unrelatable, cheesy, and a real pain to push through. On a side note though if it was a different person with a different role I feel like maybe it would be more relatable.

Read the physical book, and I must say it is the best series I have ever read in my entire life. I'm not even exaggerating when I say that I spent hours upon hours reading. I would spend entire days just nonstop reading it. Highly recommend to anyone who is interested.
