The murder complex by Lindsay Cummings (release date: June 10th 2014)

Hey, guys! I'm sorry I haven't updated in ages. So I'm wrting this short review now and I hope someone reads it. I just finished reading "Struck by Lightning" by Chris Colfer and I'm not in the best of moods. Books have the power to depress me sometimes. I'll write a short review on it and some other books.
So, the Murder complex! This book is not out yet, so the review is NON-SPOILERY! That's just my oppinion on the characters and the plot and so on. Enjoy!

An action-packed, blood-soaked, futuristic debut thriller set in a world where the murder rate is higher than the birthrate. For fans of Moira Young’s Dust Lands series, La Femme Nikita, and the movie Hanna.

Meadow Woodson, a fifteen-year-old girl who has been trained by her father to fight, to kill, and to survive in any situation, lives with her family on a houseboat in Florida. The state is controlled by The Murder Complex, an organization that tracks the population with precision.

The plot starts to thicken when Meadow meets Zephyr James, who is—although he doesn’t know it—one of the MC’s programmed assassins. Is their meeting a coincidence? Destiny? Or part of a terrifying strategy? And will Zephyr keep Meadow from discovering the haunting truth about her family?

I read this book on impulse. Mainly because I dreamed about it.I know, I know. Wierd me! But I'm serious. I dreamed the cover of this book. But enough about my wierdness.
The plot is interesting. I can't categorise the book exactly. It's dystopia, but not really. It's set in the future and everything and everyone is controlled. People even have those "bar codes" on their forheads. So you can say the book is a thriller.
The main heroine, Meadows Woodson, was very brutal. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating. She was just over-protective. I would be too if I lived in a world like hers. She was ready to do everything for her family and most of all for her little sister. She wasn't bad otherwise.
Moving on to the main male character, Zephyr James. Ok, his name is kind of funny, but it sounds good, at least. I really don't have an oppininon about him. He was, as the premise says, one of the MC’s programmed assassins. He was cute and stuff, but we really don't get to know that much about him. This is more Meadows's story and I hope in the second book, there is more about him.
I'm sorry for the brief review. The book was great and action-packed and I wish I could write more.
I'll see ya next time with another book review!
Bye!
