Shusterman, N. (2007). Unwind. New York: Simon& Schuster.After the second Civil War, Connor and Risa are threatened by a new bill of Life that makes retroactive abortion of children ages 13-18 legal. A process allowing children to be chopped into pieces. Both Connor and Risa escape being unwound because Lev blows up the facility. Connor eventually returns to the graveyard to begin a revolution.
A good recommendation for a follow up reading would be the second book of the Unwind trilogy "UnWholly". Shusterman's use of dystopia allows the reader to experience the fear each of the character's experience before being unwound.
