Unwind by Neal Shusterman Book Summary

In a society where unwanted teens are salvaged for their body parts, three runaways fight the system that would "unwind" them

Connor's parents want to be rid of him because he's a troublemaker. Risa has no parents and is being unwound to cut orphanage costs. Lev's unwinding has been planned since his birth, as part of his family's strict religion. Brought together by chance, and kept together by desperation, these three unlikely companions make a harrowing cross-country journey, knowing their lives hang in the balance. If they can survive until their eighteenth birthday, they can't be harmed -- but when every piece of them, from their hands to their hearts, are wanted by a world gone mad, eighteen seems far, far away.

In Unwind, Boston Globe/Horn Book Award winner Neal Shusterman challenges readers' ideas about life -- not just where life begins, and where it ends, but what it truly means to be alive.

So entertaining!. Love this book so much!!! Couldn’t stop reading!

These books are positively addicting!! Unbelievable. Best series of books I’ve read in a long time. My son had this book for required reading and I picked it up one day and never put the books down until I’d read all 6 and even then I was ACHING for more. Enthralling characters, scary realistic portrait of society and their ambition to join the masses- follow the crowd regardless of the morality of issues. 5 plus stars. HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ALL AGES.

Shusterman never disappoints me. At first I thought that this was going to be another one of those teenage dystopian books that are basically the same. Once I got through the first 20% I literally could not put my phone down and spent four hours straight finishing the book. The plot is tightly-woven, that Shusterman embeds small details that make you go OH SO THAT’S WHAT IT WAS FOR later on. This book contemplates human nature as they relate to pro-life and pro-choice parties. Who is really right? Does the right answer really matter? And what if the process of convincing one another leads to a disastrous result that neither side wanted in the first place? What happens to those that suffer the consequences?

I read this book when I 13. I read this when I was 13 and just remembered some of the plot. After deciding to reverse search some of the plot I found the title. This book is great.

Unwind. THIS IS THE BEST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ

COULD NOT PUT THIS DOWN. I love thus book sooooooo dreaming much. I was board and my teacher gave it to me to borrow and I read the first 70 pages in under a hour wanting more!!!!! The ending is fantastic just ughhhhh I recommend this boom to everyone!!!!!!

Love this book!. One of the best books I have read in a long time. I have actually read the first three and they are all very good. I’m really looking forward to the next one! Neal Shusterman is an amazing author. I highly recommend reading this series, you won’t be disappointed.

Unwind is the best book ever. I am in love with this book I am going to read it agin

Potential but not the best writing. I think this book would’ve been great if I could’ve finished it. I think the author just gives too much insight into what the characters are thinking, leaving little to imagination. It just wanted an easy read for me but I would recommend people to try it. Just because I didn’t like it the writing doesn’t mean someone else won’t. Like I said, it’s a good idea for a book.

Ugh.. The entire premise of the book is unrealistic, the tropes within are used in perhaps the most trite manner I have ever seen, there's a whole thing about trying to act like racism's been fixed in the world when really all that happened was "white" and "black" got replaced with new words, and the book really just can't seem to decide on whether or not the whole unwinding thing is good or bad, what with the whole scene of the kid's parts being brought all together again? It all comes together as a flaming hot mess that's not worth the trouble of reading, and doesn't even leave a compelling hook to sell a continuation of the series, as if the other books were an afterthought, and if I had to guess they're likely equally trite if not worse. If you're that desperate to see what happens next, try TVTropes, it might actually entertain you in the process, unlike this book.

It was amazing. I have read this book and I don’t think it was the full one but it was quite amazing and I really loved it as for being in high school and reading this it’s nice and wonderful

A must read!. One of my new favorites

AWESOME. Possibly the best book ever written

Unwind. 10/10 recommend

Amazing. After reading the whole series I can confirm the Unwind Dystology is my favorite series! 💖

School project turned into a favorite. I had to read this for a project, and blazed through it in 3 days because I couldn’t put it down. The beginning is awesome, the middle section is a little mid, the ending is mostly satisfying, all around an 8.6/10

Amazing. By far one of the best books I've ever read, along with unwholly, the next book! I can't wait for the third

In Love!!!. I ABSOLUTELY loved this book! I’m not a big reader but I couldn’t put this book down. I love the structure of this book and this is by far one of the most favorite books I’ve ever read. I love the suspense that it creates and I could just reread this book over and over again.

Amazing in every way!. This book makes the reader question many things about current society and realize how dark humans can be. However, it is also very addictive and a great read! It's easy to read, meaningful, and fun! A great book for older teens! :)

it will stay with you for as long as you know. If you were like me you might have been a little skeptical about reading unwind, but trust me when I tell you that once you get engaged with the characters you will not be able to put this book down. The characters are so well put together that you will have to trouble relating to one of them. This book follows the life of three protagonist. Connor, Risa, and Lev, as they fight their way for the right to live. Every character feels real, each one has their flaws but that's what makes them human. The plot is so enriching, that your heart will literary pound on your chest as you feel like you are one of the characters in the book, by the end the book had me in tears. I am very happy that I read this book and you should definitely read It as well.

Stupid School!. One of my favorites. My school wouldn't let me read for literature circles because of the abortion type aspect that some parents didn't agree with. So instead I read Gone and some ally condie book which weren't rly all that good. Now schools beginning again and I heard about unwind from goodreads! I'm so happy I decided to read this nd now understand some of the parents concern even though I like this type nitty gritty story. Very emotional. (14 yrs old)

Unwind. I had to reread it because I forgot how good it was

Still One of My Favorite Series. This is perfect for every audience! It will remain one of my favorite series.

BEST BOOK IN THE WORLD. In August, I asked my drama teacher some book suggestions. I told her I was interested in romance, but instead she suggested Unwind. She brung be the book, and I didn’t want to read it. However, being the bookworm I am, I read it. I LOVED IT. IT IS TRULY THE BEST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ IN MY ENTIRE LIFE AND I HAVE READ MILLIONS OF BOOKS. THE PLOT IS ASTONISHING AND TRULY BREATHTAKING. I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED THE SERIES WAS SO SHORT (I am currently on UnSouled), but I AM SURE I WILL READ IT AS SOON AS I FINISH THE LAST BOOK. PLEASE READ IT AND I PROMISE YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.

Amazing!. I read this book my senior year in high school.(2012). I didn't read page to page but I skimmed through it. Now a year later reading it completely. This book is amazing. Very deep and thoughtful story and well put together

Huh. 🙃

Amazing Book. This is a great book. Totally worth the money. 👍

Best Book. The best book I have ever read. It awesome

Adult Fan of YA Dysto. This is a fantastic series! Yes they're kids, but it's certainly a fascinating take an adult can relate too. This it quickly risen to my top three. Darkest Minds is in there too, to give you an idea of my style. Devour it!

Amazing book. I was reading this book for my summer reading from school and I thought it was a great book

Amazing. One of the best novels I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading.

LOVE IT. THIS BOOK GIVES ME LIFE

AMAZING!!!!. WOW!! My 15 yr old son had to read the Unwind for school and I had to purchase it through iBooks. So since he was on my account and I too had the book I figured I would read it so him and I could discuss it and so that if he had question I could help him long the way... WHAT A GREAT BOOK!!! Couldn't put it down and read it in 2 days!!! BRAVO!!!!! Gonna get the next one!!!

Woah. This dystopian really challenged the way I thought about my own views. This society is so whacky and insanely messed up but what’s scary is that when you look closer it’s a lot like our society today. You need to read this just to get you thinking. Also the characters are cool, I like Connor and Risa’s relationship. Really good writing. Good job 👍 put this at the top of your reading list.

Wow.. Just, wow. This book kept me on edge 99% of the time. It was smashing, and I got very upset at one point in the book. But I won't spoil it. JK when Roland was unwound I was very upset, and a little scared.

Great. Best book ever!!!! I loved it cant wait for the sequal!

Simply awesome. Once you start, no kidding, you can’t put it down.

Couldn't put it down. I read this book a couple of years ago and still tell people about it. This is the perfect book to base a movie off of.

Ivan Robles. Absolutely captivating!

Unwind. Honestly, this is in the top 3 books I've ever read. The concept is creepy at first, but the author can really pull it off. Great read!

😭😭😭🥰🥰🥰😱😱😱😁😁😁. I LOVE THIS BOOK LIKE IT IS MY OWN MOTHER! This WHOLE series is amazing, and so are all of Neil Shusterman’s other series! Once again, I love this book. *sigh*

My fav. This boom is awesome. Must read. If you like divergent or other dystopian books, this would be a good boom to read

Captivating. I could see something like this happening in real life. This book is perfectly written.

Really amazing book. I was recommended this book by my brother and I'm glad I read it. Couldn't put it down.

Better Than Hunger Games X100. All I can say is… please please please please please please please, read this series and support Neal S. for he is a brilliant author and a genius of intellectual parties. He knows just how to right and weave his way through the mind to get the maximum amount of understanding and entertainment from the reader. The book pulls you in and never lets go! I can guarantee that if you get deep enough you will never want to stop. I can't express how much I loved this story. I laughed and cried, the experience was so real. Its just a must read and I don't say that for anything. As a kid I was such a picky reader but I picked up this book and never let go. So don't delay get Unwind book one today.

Amazing. Had to read this back in high school. Pretty much the series that got me in to reading. Would definitely recommend.

THE GREATEST BOOK SERIES IVE EVER READ. The story itself is amazing every page masked you want to read the next and every book made me more excited for the next until i got to the last one and realized there were no more books. I only wish i could read more about this world Neal Shusterman was able to create .

Very good book. I'm reading this book in my young adult novels class and I'm like it so far. It pulls you in and keeps you there. I'd say read it it's a great book

unwind. i loved this book and need to read the others ♡

Great book, still great. I had to read this book in middle school, and it was ok then. Then I started to read it now and it’s hard to put this book down now that I have actually seriously gotten into it.

TRILOGY!!!!. This book and it's sequel are two amazing reads. I can't wait for the third one!

11/10 would read again. When I first started unwind I thought it was a morbid idea and couldn’t stand the thought of it but by the end I was completely hooked and almost instinctively went to buy the second book, there are unique characters who have great backstory and overall it is just a well put together book!

Good read.. What an awesome book, couldn't put it down.

Amazing. I just finished this today, it was an awesome book that made me actually want to read, instead of being a chore.

Productive interesting. Must read. Absolutely loved it. 2 days of reading it.
