Inside out follows Trella. Trella's world is one of monotony and isolation. She's a scrub, someone who lives trapped and for the sole reason to work to support the uppers. She has one friend and spends most of her time alone in the huge pipe system of the inside.
Inside Out is a book that explores friendship and trust in a society that values and encourages isolationism. How does one trust when the rewards for ratting someone out are so high?
The book starts slowly but becomes more engaging as it moves on. There wasn't much romance in the story which surprised me with this being a Harlequin novel. It is more sci-fi than most dystopian novels but it's ultimately a book about trust.
Appropriateness: There's not anything in this novel that would irritate parents. The violence is minimal, there's one scene that involves drinking and there is no sex.
