The knife of never letting go, by Patrick Ness

Staff member Jasmin has given 4 stars to The knife of never letting go:

Set on a distant world populated by human colonists, this is the most original book you'll read all year. Todd lives in a little town, populated by men alone, men who cannot help but 'hear' each others thoughts. No one can keep secrets and no one can be private. There are no women, they died during the Spakle war, or so Todd has been told. Then one day Todd finds everything he believed is a lie - the Mayor of Prentiss town is pure evil and he must run for his life. This book doesn't let down the pace, you'll be reading well into the night trying to finish it. And it's a trilogy! Yay!
