SHE WILL NOT BREAK
Vega Jane was always told no one could leave the town of Wormwood. She was told there was nothing outside but a forest filled with danger and death. And she always believed it -- until the night she saw Quentin Herms run away.
Vega knows Quentin didn't just leave -- he was chased. And he left behind a trail of clues that point to a dark conspiracy at the heart of Wormwood. To follow the clues will attract the attention of influential people willing to kill to keep their secrets. If Vega wants to stay safe, she just needs to keep her head down and her mouth shut. There's only one problem -- Vega Jane never walks away from a fight.
Master storyteller David Baldacci introduces an unforgettable heroine who must think fast, hit hard, and defy all odds to uncover the truth.

This is a great book. Vega Jane lies in Wormwood. When a friend finds a way to escape Wormwood she follows the clues and finds magical weapons. I love this book.
It is about a girl named Vega Jane who is curious to find out what is beyond Wormwood, a village trapped by the deadly forests, Quag. The Finisher is a pretty good fantasy book.
This book was about Vega Jane a young girl living in the village of Wormwood. Wormwood is your typical small quiet town. Until one day when Vega watches a mysterious man run into the Queg a place that was supposedly nothingness and danger.
I loved this book! It is one of my all time favorite books! Vega Jane lives in the quiet town of Wormwood. Nothing much happens in Wormwood. But when she sees a boy run into the Queg Vega Jane's world will change forever!
I have mixed feelings about this book. I love the slang created for this new world, and the word itself is pretty unique. This book will appeal to fans of Divergent and Hungers Games, and the way Vega kicks butt will keep readers hooked.
THIS IS AN AMAZING BOOK!!! I read this being not sure if I would like it, but it is an AWESOME BOOK! It is about a girl, Vega Jane, who has lived her life in a small world, a city with barriers, her whole life she finds a map that suggests that there is an outside world, she goes on, trying to find her way out, secretly. READ THIS BOOK!!! I can't wait to read the second one, The Keeper!!!
A good book. It tells the story of a girl trying to escape her dystopian society. As she finds more about her society's dark secrets, the more dangerous her life becomes.
