LARKSTORM
By: Dawn Rae Miller
In the years following the destructive Long Winter, when half the world’s population perished, the State remains locked in battle against the Sensitives: humans born with extra abilities.
As one of the last descendants of the State’s Founders, seventeen-year-old Lark Greene knows her place: study hard and be a model citizen so she can follow in her family’s footsteps. Her life’s been set since birth, and she’s looking forward to graduating and settling down with Beck, the boy she’s loved longer than she can remember.
However, after Beck is accused of being Sensitive and organizing an attack against Lark, he disappears. Heartbroken and convinced the State made a mistake, Lark sets out to find him and clear his name.
But what she discovers is more dangerous and frightening than Sensitives: She must kill the boy she loves, unless he kills her first.

-Summary from Goodreads
This book sounds totally awesome! Veronica Roth, the superb author of Divergent (it was actually the first book I ever reviewed! O.O), recommended this book on her blog. And the cover is just GORGEOUS! :D (yeah, okay, I really shouldn't judge book on their covers, but STILL!)
