The Power Within by Kate Sinclair

 


Goodreads synopsis: The world is in ruins. After the Great war of 2046 the United States government has collapsed, leaving warring crime syndicates and gangs to run the country. But, something deeper and stronger lies underground waiting for it’s chance to strike. Georgia Puttman is just a shy fifteen year old girl who tends to keep to herself and only listens to the things going on around her. But when she is suddenly kidnapped and given supernatural powers, she must learn to overcome her fear in order to do what is right.

My rating: 3 stars.

Content warnings: PG. Some non-described violence.

Thoughts: I know the author, but was not asked to review this

It is evident that this is the author's first book, and there is room for improvement. My main comment was that it could have stood to be a much longer story, with a lot more world and character development. But it is clear that a lot of thought and work went into this book, and I enjoyed the heart behind it. Not for everyone, but nice to support a young, beginning author.
