Story4.5 out of 5 stars 47
Elijah Goldsmith has nightmares he needs to ignore. Why would a rich kid from Manhattan dream three straight nights about a dragon and the destruction of St. Peter’s Basilica? He’s never even been to Rome. It’s bad timing, too. He’s graduating soon and applying to be a spy in the International Security Agency. That’s where he meets Naomi. She’s the kind of girl who makes boys like Elijah want to share their secrets.

Publisher's summary
This is the world without testosterone. Without violence. Without men.
Nora has been chosen since birth to join the Mothers, who rule the Convent in wisdom and love by gentling the poor souls born as males. Jude leaves home with his fiddle and a dream to see a real live girl. It is Nora's duty to capture any wild boys who trespass on Convent territory, but Jude is far more than a wild boy. He threatens to upend Nora's world. From their differences and desperation arises a passion that could shatter all that the Mothers have built.

My father had an expression for a thing that turned out bad. He'd say it had gone west. But going west always sounded pretty good to me. After all, westwards is the path of the sun. And through as much history as I know of, people have moved west to settle and find freedom. But our world had gone north, truly gone north, and just how far north I was beginning to learn.

Very relevant and enjoyable read.
Really loved this book. The book is fiction but is definitely relevant to what is happening in our world right now. I loved the characters and watching them grow and change throughout the story. I can wait for the rest of the series to see what happens next.
