Candor


I read a book called "Candor" by Pam Bachorz. The genre of the book is fiction. I chose this book because the book cover looked interesting and the librarian recommended it to me.
Oscar, the main character, is a son of the owner of a city called Candor. In Candor everything has to be perfect. The houses there are huge and expensive. Every single citizen of the city gets only A+ grades. There is only one reason for that. The reason why everyone is perfect, there are no crimes, and a beautiful city is that every person living in the city is controlled by Messages. Well, almost every single person...Oscar is supposed to be like the most perfect one because he is the son of the creator of this city. Turns out, it's the opposite. Oscar pretends he is all good but he really struggle to disguise who and how he reall is. He struggles and goes all the way against his father. He tries to overpower Messages. According to the laws, every single person who tries to do that is put in the Listening Room and is brainwashed. Oscar has a plan of saving people for large amounts of money. His plan works. He gets clients and helps them overfight the Messgaes and have their own way of life and later run off. His plan is going great until a new girl comes into the neighborhood and he falls for her instantly. His life was going great. He had a girlfriend but as soon as she moves in, that changes and his purpose of life and all the future events of it.
Two things that I liked about the book is that it is a really cute love story and that it is realistic. The age group it is responsible for is 12+. The reading level it is recommended for is 6/10. I would recommend it to a friend. I think that anykind of person would like this book if they like reading! In my opinion, it is my favorite book now!:)
