This little light / Lori Lansens.

Lansens, Lori, (author.).

Summary:

2023. Rory Ann Miller is on the run with her best friend Feliza Lopez because they are accused of bombing their posh Californian high school during an American Virtue Ball. Rory's mom, a social activist and lawyer, has been arrested and implicated in her daughter's "crimes" whereas her dad is cooperating with the authorities. Rory is cynical and scared, furious and scathing, betrayed and looking for something or someone to trust. As she blogs their story, what she has to say about the dads and bosses and politicians lining up to keep women in their place, and about the ways women collaborate in their own undermining, is fierce, and funny, and sad, and true. -- adapted from jacket

    "An urgent bulletin from an all-too-believable near future where a smart young woman who questions the new world order is accused of being a terrorist."--
  • Grand Central Pub

    A teenage girl is running for her life in “a near-future that is stark, visceral and terrifyingly real” in this national bestselling dystopian thriller (Ami McKay, author of The Birth House).

    Taking place over the course of forty-eight pulse-pounding hours, This Little Light draws readers into a near-future world of born-again Christians and celebrity worship where abortion is illegal and surveillance is everywhere. Sixteen-year-old Rory Miller and her best friend, Fee, are on the run after a bomb explodes at their elite Christian private school inside their triple-gated California community.

    As Rory and Fee struggle to evade a media-frenzied search led by zealots and bounty hunters, Rory blogs their story in real time, determined to leave behind a record in their own words in case they don’t make it out alive.

    Author Lori Lansens weaves an intense, urgent, and enthralling read about an all-too-believable near future—and the world we already live in.
