YAChaos Walking series.
Todd lives in a brutal all-male society where thoughts are audible. He escapes, embarking on a classic coming-of-age survival journey accompanied by his loyal dog and a mysterious girl. Todd's world is fascinating, and the psychological and sociological impact of being unable to shut out others' thoughts--or hide your own--is creatively explored. The relationships, too, have considerable emotional depth.
