Rave New World - The Reading Room Project Introduction

Rave New World




It's the year 2157, and every pleasure that doesn't turn people into dutiful consumers has been classified as an addiction and outlawed. Jaden Emory's job is to find out people's hidden addictions—and root them out. But when rebellious raver Ally Fayre enters the picture, it's Jaden who becomes addicted...to her.

That's the premise for Rave New World. It's the future and consumerism is the way of life and maybe even the way of government. Read the first chapter. Subsequent posts provide questions and other opportunity for you to learn new vocabulary and practice your writing
