Young Adult Anonymous: YAA is a book club for adults who secretly enjoy reading YA literature. This month we are discussing Scythe, by Neal Schusterman, which describes a world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery. Humanity has conquered all those things, and has even conquered death. Now scythes are the only ones who can end life—and they are commanded to do so, in order to keep the size of the population under control.
