Imagine a world where disease, war, and crime no longer exist, and the only way to die is to be chosen for "gleaning" by professional scythes. Teenagers Citra and Rowan are reluctantly selected as scythe apprentices. Though neither wants the job, they must learn the art of taking life and the weight of the responsibility that comes with it.

However, as they train, they uncover corruption within the Scythedom, and soon, their competition turns deadly. Only one of them will be chosen to become a full scythe, and the first task of the winner will be to "glean" the loser. With their fates intertwined, they must navigate a dangerous system where power and morality collide.

Scythe is a gripping, thought-provoking read that challenges ideas of life, death, and control. Perfect for fans of dystopian fiction and thrilling, high-stakes storytelling, this book will keep you hooked from start to finish. If you enjoyed The Hunger Games or Divergent, this is a must-read!
