and The Unquiet  by Mikaela Everett, you might not think they would have that much in common. I read them back to back and was surprised to find as many similarities as I did. Both have incredibly different premises and main characters, but there is quite a lot in terms of thematic development that the books share.

The Scorpion Rules  takes place in a future world where a climatic shifts caused the world governments to sink into chaos and war over food and water supplies. A clever AI named Talis stepped into this chaos and took over the UN. Now the world lives under the rules Talis has created and each nation's leader must send a Child of Peace to basically be held hostage until they are old enough to rule. If a nation goes to war, the child is executed.

You can see all the judges for every category on the blog here .  I will be serving as a Round One judge in MG Realistic Fiction this year. I love being a Round One judge because I get to read so many books. I've found a lot of favorites that I might not have read otherwise this way. This is my first year with MG Realistic and am looking forward to the switch in genres.  My fellow team members are: Michael Gettel-Gilmartin from Middle Grade Mafioso Pamela Groseclose from Tween You & Me Sarah Sammis from Puss Reboots Debbie Tanner from TheBook Search Libertad Thomas from Twinja Book Reviews Julie Williams from Reading by the Pond I'm looking forward to working with and getting to know all of these bloggers. The next big step in the Cybils process is nominations. Start making your list of favorite reads of the past year and get ready to nominate starting October 1!  </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden'

That the book is written by Melanie Crowder whose release, Audacity , earlier this year completely captivated me guaranteed that I would want to read it. It is a brilliant work of fantasy with an amazing heart. Luna lives in a village on stilts in a swamp. Luna has grown up on her grandmother's stories of the time when she was a child before the great trees fell creating the dam that turned their beautiful river into a swamp with foul water. Even one mouthful of the swamp's water brings on a wasting sickness with no cure. Three weeks to the day the unfortunate person swallows the water they die. When Luna's sister, who is the joy and spirit of her family, gets a mouthful of the water one day, Luna is determined to do anything to save her. Luna has never believed in magic or curses, but when the doctor in the floating city says she can do nothing to help an illness caused by magic, Luna becomes even more desp </div> <a
