Ttile: Unwind

Author: Neal Shusterman

Genre: Science Fiction

Rating: 10/10

Review: Instead of killing "bad/unwanted" kids, they get "unwound". It's not considered killing them because every single part of their bodies are still alive. They just... arn't together in one body anymore.

I just spent over 40 mins updating and fixing that list.

 

Please don't toss it.

 

And those two books I marked as adult, they are paranormal fantasy and that genre usually has "adult scenes", which is why I didn't add them

Could we perhaps have an indication of books that are more adult(i.e., would be rated R if it were a movie)? I know that this is a list of young adult books, but some listed here are a lot more adult oriented than others. Like A Song of Ice and Fire has some rather adult situations, versus something like warriors, which is also listed here, which is more oriented for young readers.

You know, the fantasy list is still rather long. Might I suggest it get split up into three groups? (Animal Fantasy, Urban Fantasy and High/Medieval Fantasy)
