MAKING CONNECTIONS: This book is text to book. I think this because it is similar to books like Maze Runner and Hunger Games. These books have a dystopian world where people live miserable lives in a controlled environment. In Unbound, kids live in fear of getting Unwound. The government is corrupt because of deception and social control. They trick the public into believing all unwinds are bad.

CHARACTERIZATION: Miracolina thinks that unwinding is unjust. She fights back by giving sanctuary to runaway unwinds (AWOLS). She works at a food drive and serves food to the poor. After her shift is over, she heads to the hideout and helps get Unwinds to the safe houses. She and an Unwind named Bryce discover that someone very close to her is a traitor and that he is turning in Unwinds to the police.
