THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ISLAND by Allegra Goodman

Ever since Honor moved to Island 365 with her parents from the wild Northern Islands, she's been noticing that her parents don't quite fit in. Island life is peaceful and orderly since Earth Mother enclosed what land was still inhabitable after catastrophic weather terrorized the Earth. But her parents don't worship Earth Mother like everyone else does, and they don't follow the rules. And that scares Honor, because she learns that those who are unpredictable disappear - and they don't come back. (from book cover)
This was a fantastic book--one of those you can't put down.  This would be a great book for us to have a book talk over--lots of topics to talk about.  I'm thinking there will be a sequel--we'll have to wait and see.
