“An engaging blend of clean romance, drama, and science fiction. Recommended for middle and high school collections.”— School Library Journal&nbsp;
In the near future, a scientific development is changing the way people have relationships. People no longer find their own spouses; they’re assigned them by the government using an AI program meant to create optimal happiness. The assignments happen at age 18, and Delphine “Del” Everett doesn’t want any part of it.
Anna Lindwasser is a writer, teacher, and student who recently left Brooklyn to start an MFA in creative writing at the University of Alabama. She is also the author of the West 44 title This Trauma Is Sponsored. When she isn’t writing, teaching, or studying, she can be found exploring her new city or reading too many shojo manga about soulmates.
