The Acceptance: A YA Dystopian Adventure with Strong Heroine who Must Save Her Family by Entering the Acceptance Trials and going to the Frightening World Above (The GEOs Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 433 ratings

The Hunger Games meets Divergent in this epic first book in the GEOS trilogy.

Humanity is on the brink of extinction. After being nearly wiped out by a deadly virus, Earth’s population was saved only by the genius of Farrow Corp. Now, the scientists in Farrow’s Labs work tirelessly to search for a cure to the genetic plague that has left the remaining population hiding below ground.

Underground survival in the GEOs is dark and highly controlled—an existence Tylia will do anything to escape, especially when her mother begins to suffer from the ravages of an illness. There is one answer:
the Acceptance Trials. If she survives, she'll guarantee her and her family a home in the Labs, and a renewed life for her mother.

But the world Above is vastly different from what she’s been led to believe. When Tylia is rescued from the jaws of death during the trials by a handsome stranger, and discovers that Farrow Corp’s security forces are hunting her, everything she once believed about humanity’s chances for survival are flipped on their head.

Turns out, surviving the virus may be the least of Tylia’s concerns…

FREE Young Adult Dystopian Story

For fans of Hunger Games and Divergent comes a thrilling dystopian story about a girl who must find her parents in a new, dangerous world...

Get it here: https://dl.bookfunnel.com/ggzjup1xzl

Ramona Finn writes about courageous characters who fight to live in broken, dystopian worlds. She believes a person's true characters is often revealed in times of crisis, and there is no greater crisis than the worlds that she drops her characters into!

She grew up sitting cross-legged on her town's library floor--completely engrossed in science fiction books. It was always the futuristic world or the universe-on-the-brink-of-extinction plotlines that drew her in, but it was the brave characters who chose to fight back that kept her turning the pages.

Her books create deep, intricate worlds with bold characters determined to fight for their survival in their dystopian worlds--with a little help from their friends. And, of course, romance is never out of the question ;)

    Ramona Finn never disappoints in this very intriguing tale of Tylia (umm, who doesn’t adore that name?!?), who lives in the GEOs, deep underground with a massive community working to keep their home in working order after many years of living below the ground. Forced underground by a virus, Ty’s only chance to save her dying mother is to win the Acceptance. It’s got drama, a little bit of young love, and a FIERCE HEROINE who fights for herself and her family, sometimes making rash decisions, but always doing her absolute best to come through for her family! I hope you findTy and her world as intriguing as I did!

    One of the best dystopian books I've read in a long time! I just ordered the 2 next ones in this series. Its truly divergent and hunger games combined!
  • Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2020
    This is the second series I have read by this author. It takes place in a futuristic time when a virus has killed 90% of the population of our world.

    The people now live underground and are controlled by a company that is searching for the cure. A select group of people is sent out above ground every 100 days in order to see if life above ground can be reestablished. The people that survive this trial called the Acceptance, are supposed to be granted a life of prosperity for themselves and their family afterwards.

    However, life is never as simple as it seems. There are a group of people who are already living on the face of the planet and the fact that they are doing so is being covered up by the corporation that controls everything underground.

    The first book in the series does a great job of pulling you into them main character, Tylia's life. By the end of reading the book I felt like she was a close friend. I can't wait to see what comes next in "The Labs"

    The story isn't bad but I found myself wondering how Ty jumped to certain emotions/conclusions/situations without much explanation. A little more dialogue and some comic relief would go a long way, I think. I was hoping to be a little more captivated by the storytelling.

    I loved the brave heroine who left the
    underground and survives exposure to the virus which decimated the world's population. She becomes the hope of reuniting the 3 factions left on earth.

    I’m hoping this series only gets better and better. I didn’t think I would like this book because of its young adult genre, but it was really good. I’m glad I read it.

    This plotline is unique and exciting! I love the characters so far, and the idea of Tylia trying to unite humanity, and end Farrow Corp's sinister plans !!! She survived the virus, and now she has to survive Farrow Corp. Obviously, things aren't as they seem , not as Farrow Corp tells the Geo's underground. They've been lying to them all for years, and Tylia must find a way to help all of humanity !!

    I really enjoyed this book. The author found a new way to describe the forces between good and evil and how things aren't always what they seem\we are told. I liked the way she described the living conditions in both worlds and how they tied together, as well as how the main character grew over time through the book...she wasn't just the best at everything right off the bat like you see in may books with a heroine.
