Inside Out - Maria V. Snyder
Keep Your Head Down.
Don't Get Noticed.
Or Else.
I'm Trella. I'm a scrub. A nobody. One of thousands who work the lower levels, keeping Inside clean for the Uppers. I've got one friend, do my job and try to avoid the Pop Cops. So what if I occasionally use the pipes to sneak around the Upper levels? The only neck at risk is my own…until I accidentally start a rebellion and become the go-to girl to lead a revolution.
Inside Out is totally a different story altogether. It is a dystopian based story, where Inside is a place where people live in. The place is divided into four levels, and it is the home of the Uppers and Lowers (aka Scrubs).
Trella is a Scrub and works as a cleaner in the pipes of Inside. She mostly keeps to herself and her only wish was to escape and have a better life in Outside. But then a new prophet claims he knows the location of a Gateway- the ticket to escape. Trella finds herself starting a revolution, makes new friends, and develops into an awesome heroine.
The first half of the book is quite slow, but it was worth it because the author created vivid descriptions of Inside and Trella's life there. Rate it a 3 and a half out of 5 stars. :-)
(There's a copy of this book in the school library. Sequel to this book is Outside In).
