Reviews
With Chosen Ones, Veronica Roth has pulled off a virtuoso performance, conjuring a stunning thriller/fantasy/sci-fi chimera like nothing I've read before, a story of ex-heroes struggling with the trauma of their past, what it means to have once saved the world, and the dark side of destiny., Chosen Ones by Veronica Roth is the cure for all those humdrum 'one true savior' narratives. This dark, complex novel rocked my heart and left me with a renewed sense that saving the world is a job that never ends. Roth's version of magic is as flawed and fascinating as her characters, and her story keeps you guessing until the wild conclusion. You'll never look at fantasy heroes the same way again., A hugely imagined, twisty, turning tale that leads through the labyrinths of magic and war to the center of the heart., Roth (The End and Other Beginnings: Stories from the Future (2019), etc.) made her name by writing best-selling YA action/adventure novels like the Divergent series, so it makes sense that she can so expertly deconstruct those tropes for adult audiences. There's a lot of magic and action to make for a propulsive plot, but much more impressive are the character studies as Roth takes recognizable and beloved teen-hero types and explores what might happen to them as adults. Roth makes a bold entrance to adult fantasy., Roth somehow manages to make universe-building look easy. She sets it all up--world, characters, premise--so smoothly that you hardly notice until you're a hundred pages in and hurtling down the tracks. An insightful exploration of desire and ambition that also touches on broader societal topics, including celebrity, social media, trauma, and recovery. A thought-provoking novel with ample emotion and a sense of playfulness with form. And one more thing: when the inevitable adaptation of Chosen Ones hits the screen someday, I just hope it captures Roth's fascinating and original theory of magic., "Roth isn't interested in easy victories or happily-ever-afters . . . The novel manages to be an elegant social commentary without resorting to preachiness . . . A wonderfully complex and nuanced book." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Highly recommended for readers of dystopian fiction, lovers of Philip K. Dick's thought-police science fiction, and anyone who wants to see how far "If you see something, say something" can be led astray." -- Library Journal (starred review) "Poster Girl is a captivating story full of twists and turns--and no easy answers. Veronica Roth's latest outing will draw you into its broken world, and make you think more deeply of our own. I couldn't put it down." -- Karin Slaughter, New York Times bestselling author of Girl, Forgotten "Roth weaves a tale of redemption and regret that kept me riveted and guessing until the last page." -- Hugh Howey, New York Times bestselling author of Wool and Across the Sand "Veronica Roth's Poster Girl is a carbonated noir, a thrilling dystopian page turner, and a novel that pushes at the ideas of justice and compliance. Poster Girl is a rare book that is deeply entertaining while making readers consider deep moral issues." -- Megan Giddings, author of Lakewood and The Women Could Fly "Someone is always watching, private secrets breed public power, and polite behavior and careful thoughts will not be enough to save everyone from their complicity. This is a smart, propulsive thriller set in a cleverly constructed world, full of tough questions I won't soon forget." -- Matt Bell, author of Appleseed "This is a story of deep complexity, full of love and loss and hard-won hope." -- Marissa Levien, author of The World Gives Way "An intelligent, raw, emotional dystopian thriller that asks deep questions about human nature, society, and freedom. With searing prose, deft world building, and a layered, propulsive plot that will keep you turning the pages, the supremely talented Veronica Roth is at the top of her game in Poster Girl. Don't miss this!" -- Lisa Unger, New York Times bestselling author of Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six "Poster Girl cements Veronica Roth's status as a superstar. It's not just her prose, lyrical and precise. Not just her characters, complex and enchanting. It's that she manages to keep her feet planted in the thunderous present while setting her narrative gaze on a looming Orwellian future. Not a word of this fine novel is dogmatic or reductive as Sonja Kantor, onetime true believer, peels back the pristine façade of her life's ideology to reveal the churning human chaos beneath. Her story is timeless in all the best ways, as contoured and mysterious as the poster girl herself." -- Gregg Hurwitz, #1 International bestselling author of the Orphan X series "Divergent author Roth smartly envisions the repercussions of a government gone too far and the potential abuse of technology in the wrong hands." -- Washington Post "The expert of dystopian worlds is back with yet another engrossing tale. . . Roth has done it again with her uncanny ability to create strong, inspiring characters and an eerie Big Brother theme." -- Shondaland, With Chosen Ones, Veronica Roth keeps you guessing: playing with perception, multiverse theory, and the struggles that go along with being 'chosen' to save the world . . . She's created a universe that you never want to leave., "Roth isn't interested in easy victories or happily-ever-afters . . . The novel manages to be an elegant social commentary without resorting to preachiness . . . A wonderfully complex and nuanced book." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Highly recommended for readers of dystopian fiction, lovers of Philip K.

Synopsis
"Poster Girl is a captivating story full of twists and turns--and no easy answers. I couldn't put this book down." --Karin Slaughter, New York Times bestselling author of Girl, Forgotten From #1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth, a dystopian novel set in a surveillance state about one woman's desperate search for a missing girl...and the dark family secrets she uncovers along the way. Sonya Kantor is paying for her parents' sins. Once the privileged daughter of a powerful regime, Sonya is now fighting for scraps in the Aperture, an unconventional prison for members of the now-collapsed Delegation. Sonya has no hope of clemency. She was the regime's former poster girl and the new government had to make an example of her. But when Alexander Price, the brother of her now-dead fiancé's, appears and offers to broker a deal for her freedom, she allows herself to imagine life outside the Aperture. Her deep knowledge of the Delegation and her father's dark dealings could be the key to finding a missing girl named Grace. Find Grace, gain freedom. The path to find Grace leads Sonya through an unfamiliar post-Delegation city with echoes of her former life at every turn. She meets Knox, a reclusive tech genius, and Naomi Proctor, Delegation scientist who reveals their most terrifying secret. Faced with open hostility and no resources, it's clear to Sonya this is a task she's meant to fail...unless she can face her unsavory past. Poster Girl is a haunting dystopian mystery that confronts the consequence of choice...even when those choices aren't your own., " Poster Girl is a captivating story full of twists and turns--and no easy answers.
