OLDER FICTION
Freitas, Donna

Unplugged

(4) YA The affluent leave their inert bodies behind to live virtually in the frivolous App World. Skye illegally "unplugs" to find her family in the Real World and discovers a black market in human bodies. The novel has suspenseful moments, but its futuristic setting, action-filled conspiracy plot, and ethical themes (reminiscent of The Matrix, Feed, and The Hunger Games) cover little new ground.
