"When a plague isn't all that kills..."

While it has been a while since I read a book that is considered teen fiction, I did enjoy reading "The Scourge." It was entertaining and I enjoyed seeing the friendship of Weevil and Ani change and grow. What happens in the book with the scourge can also be applied today, in a sense that we don't always know the full story or the truth behind everything that goes on in the world.
