I haven't posted a book trailer in awhile and today I received an email from the author of The Forsaken who gave me the link to the books trailer. I went and watched it and absolutely fell in love with it. It's amazing to see how they turn books into these little trailers. After watching certain book trailers I always think this book would make for an interesting movie, and this was no exception.

OUTLINE:
As
an obedient orphan of the U.N.A. (the super-country that was once
Mexico, the U.S., and Canada), Alenna learned at an early age to blend
in and be quiet—having your parents taken by the police will do that to a
girl. But Alenna can’t help but stand out when she fails a test that
all sixteen-year-olds have to take: The test says she has a high
capacity for brutal violence, and so she is sent to The Wheel, an island
where all would-be criminals end up.
The life expectancy of
prisoners on The Wheel is just two years, but with dirty, violent, and
chaotic conditions, the time seems a lot longer as Alenna is forced to
deal with civil wars for land ownership and machines that snatch kids
out of their makeshift homes. Desperate, she and the other prisoners
concoct a potentially fatal plan to flee the island. Survival may seem
impossible, but Alenna is determined to achieve it anyway
