Unequal
We are all the same. Equal.
In a world where being different is against the law, Rue Logan lives in fear of being branded Unequal and getting disappeared like so many others. The Department of Equalization had other plans for her life, but she couldn’t let that stop her. Now, she works her assigned job as a janitor by day and prowls the hospital’s corridors at night, saving lives.
Until she’s caught.
On the run from the DOE, Rue finds others like her, Unequals working in secret to achieve their goals and live their lives. But their leader has a mission of his own. With war brewing, both sides need her skills to help them win. Torn between her own deeply held beliefs and her desire to save the people she’s come to love, Rue must find a way to stop the conflict before any more lives are lost. Even if it means uncovering secrets and lies that could break her world apart.

What makes a dystopian story compelling is the posibility of it becoming reality. This book has that in spades! In a world where everyone has to be equal, those with dreams and talents that outshine the rest are "disappeared." Rue Logan was always different though she managed to hide it with the help of her uncle. When the time came for her to be an "adult," the Department of Equality (DOE) assigned her quarters, her husband, and her job--a janitor in a hospital--a place where one is more likely to die than survive. Rue masquerades as a doctor and does what she can with the limited training she's managed to achieve on her own. And then things spiral out of control.
Who can she trust? Who should she believe? And why is all this happening? No spoilers. This is an edge-of-your-seat thriller that will keep the reader turning/swiping pages.
I read it first for free with Kindle Unlimited and then I bought a digital copy for my keeper shelf. I would have finished it sooner but my darn eyesight limited the number of pages I could read in one sitting. Trust me, this one was worth the blurry vision!

Lots of twists
This was a good story. Hints of a 1984 dystopia but with a definitely different spin. Lots of twists and turns. Heck, the heroine can't even settle on a love interest for too long. Just when you can see where its heading it switches lanes. Fun to read and it kept me awake way too long. I just didn't want to put it dowm!
