Books 1-3 in the Culling Series

Book 1, The Culling: 150 years after a virus wipes out most of the world's population, Reagan Scott finds herself chosen for the State of the Union's fifth Culling. She will compete against forty-nine of the country's brightest girls. And then, of course, there are the fifty boys. She'll have to pair up with one for her shot at becoming the next Presidential Couple.

Though the government truly means well, not everything is as it seems. She will be tested to the fullest extent while an evil storm brews.

Book 2, The Fracturing: As the competition for Presidential Couple continues and the final four are solidified, the campaigning begins, sending Reagan on a tour of the townships to vie for the votes and hearts of the nation. Though she's finally with the one who has always had her heart, everything else seems to be spinning out of control. With enemies both within the Culling and outside of it, it's not a matter of if something will happen . . . but when.

Book 3, The Reckoning: In the final moments of The Fracturing, Reagan was taken. While the rest of the country casts their votes for the next Presidential Couple, Reagan must now fight to survive.

Great author

This series is phenomenal! I did not want it to end! Has just enough action, drama, and suspense. I looked forward to being able to listen to more.

It's the Hallmark version of the apocalypse

This story was a little difficult for me to finish, but the overall plot was good. The details, however, were what made it tough. There was much time spent on fashion details, a guy for every girl, and a somewhat predictable chain of events. What was most troubling, though, were some of the chauvinist comments made by the male characters, "she's a feisty little thing," being tops among them. The narrator's voice, sometimes a little over-dramatic, is pleasant, which helped make the story more enjoyable.

Great reader!

This reader is fantastic. It’s easy to discern which voices she is doing by the way she characterizes her voice. She tells the story fantastically, and I’ll probably seek her out to hear another story.
The author also did a pretty good job here. I was really disappointed with the lackluster ending because it was such a big and grand story, and I feel like they just kind of gave up at the end. I would’ve liked to have more of a climactic interaction between Marjorie and the protagonist for the final battle. All in all I definitely would recommend this story!

Not bad

I liked the story for the most part. It was a bit too long and dragged out on some boring parts. Some things that happened were predictable which I find annoying especially at the end. The ending was boring and unnecessary in my opinion.

Good

I liked this series. It wasn’t a very deep plot but still enjoyable. I will probably continue with the next 4 books.

Aw, man...

So... this series... had an honestly amazing plot line a super creative story. I actually hate how I ended up feeling about it. It's hard to embrace an 18 ur old main character as a super tough, brilliant young "woman" taking over the post apocalyptic world... when she is soooooo juvenile?? Childish responses that read like their being said by a middle aged mom in fear of her daughters purity. like, it actually made me sad. This series had so so so much potential. Also, filled with read between the lines misogyny fully embraced by our Tough female hero. Insanely unrealistic if you have any clear idea of what it means to be that awesome. She fully accepts her bf addressing her as a dainty flower... idk. I physically rolled my eyes at so many of the childish responses. like, what young adult in the past 5 decades consistently refers it kissing her boyfriend as "Smooching" over, and over, and over and....

Hey teen girl reading this.... taking natural next steps In a relationship with someone you love Before marriage (if you were to even choose marriage at all) absolutely DOES NOT make you "that kinda girl". It makes you human.

Anyone else, if by chapter 5 of book 1 your nervous about an out word religious or biblical turn... don't worry it's coming halfway through book 2.

So much potential, so little realistic behavior. I wanted to love it, I swear.

just meh

The story started out interesting and then completely lost it. Very impractical story line, a too perfect main character, no character depth even though it seemed like the author was trying just failed to hit the mark. By the end I was struggling to push through and skipping a lot. Ending was ridiculous and had me eye rolling the entire time.
