From  New York Times  bestselling author Sophie Jordan,  Uninvited  is a chilling and suspenseful story about a girl whose DNA brands her a killer, perfect for fans of  The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer  and  Shatter Me. Davy had everything—a terrific boyfriend, the homecoming crown, a bright future at Juilliard—but when her genetic tests come back positive for Homicidal Tendency Syndrome, she loses it all. Uninvited from her prestigious school, avoided by her friends and family, she is placed in a special class with other "carriers" who are treated like the murderers they someday might become. Only Sean, a fellow HTS carrier, can relate to her new life and tells her that she alone controls her actions—not the code embedded into her DNA. But even if she can learn to trust him, can Davy trust herself? Don’t miss the continuation of Davy’s journey in Unleashed, the romantic, high-stakes conclusion!   In this Amazon exclusive list, author Sophie Jordan shares her top ten sci-fi movies. 1. Another Earth – LOVE this movie! Set in a near future where we’ve discovered a duplicate Earth in our solar system. It’s tragic and beautiful. A story about loss and love. 2. A Sound of Thunder – Based on my favorite short story from Ray Bradbury. You see just how dangerous time-travel could really be. Not only could it alter the future, but it can wipe out mankind in its entirety. Spooky! And bonus=cutie Edward Burns. 3. Minority Report – Um. Identify a criminal before they even commit the crime?!?! Cool concept reminds me a little bit of this book I wrote … *cough cough* 4. The Fifth Element – Gotta love the costuming in this one … and Mila Jovovich’s hair! 5. The Terminator – “I came across time for you, Sarah. I love you. I always have.” Sigh. 6. I Am Legend – Yes, with shades of zombie and apocalyptic themes, I have much love for this movie set in the near-future … talk about science/medical research gone awry. 7. Judge Dredd – A time-traveling cop heads to the future to hunt a killer? Bring it. 8. Star Trek (the new films): Captain Kirk. Nuff said. 9. Surrogates – This one felt eerily possible! 10. Stargate – Adventure, suspense, romance! Everything you could want and it was good enough for a TV show spin-off. Gr 8 Up—High school senior Davy has her future all planned out until genetic testing determines that she has Homicidal Tendency Syndrome. In this near-future dystopia, people with this "kill gene" are more likely to commit murder and are isolated from the rest of the population. Essentially, those who possess the "kill gene" are treated in a manner that would inspire thoughts of murder in even the most mild mannered teens. Davy is expelled from her prep school and sent to a public school that is equipped to handle her condition. Her relationship with her boyfriend disintegrates slowly, and her relationship with her family changes. There is also a dangerous but attractive bad boy in her new school. The stakes are raised when those who have the kill gene are institutionalized, and Davy must, yet again, adjust to a very different life than she had planned. The inevitable sequel will no doubt uncover government corruption at the highest levels. While the author relies too heavily on telling rather than showing, this is an entertaining read once disbelief has been suspended. Jarringly, the romantic scenes, while not explicit, use the vocabulary of more adult romance. Teens hungry for this genre will not mind and, in fact, will eagerly await the sequel. Uninvited will be appreciated by fans of Suzanne Young's The Program (S. & S., 2013) and similar romantic dystopian titles.—Kristin Anderson, Columbus Metropolitan Library System, OH Davy Hamilton has the perfect life, the perfect family, and the perfect boyfriend . . . until a medical test reveals that she is a carrier for Homicidal Tendency Syndrome. Quickly, she loses her friends, her private school, her scholarship to Juilliard, and, soon, her freedom. Now Davy and her fellow carriers must fight for their survival before they become the killers they’ve been told they are. With Jordan’s clear and heavy focus on Davy’s feelings of oppression, this fast-paced story is a solid addition to the dystopian genre. The first part of the novel is full of quickly building suspense, and readers will be appalled at how easily Davy’s life is dismantled. In part two, the story takes on a harder tone as Davy and other carriers are shipped off to a mysterious training facility. Astute readers will figure out faster than Davy why the teens are there, but that doesn’t detract from the action and tension. A mild romance also doesn’t get in the way, though readers might hope it will develop more in book two.
