Dry by Neal Shusterman
In a dystopian near-future California, a catastrophic drought known as the "Tap-Out" leaves the state without water, plunging society into chaos. The story follows Alyssa and her brother Garrett as they navigate the escalating desperation and violence of their community, seeking safety and survival. As resources dwindle and societal norms crumble, they join forces with unlikely allies, each grappling with their own moral dilemmas and instincts for self-preservation. The narrative explores themes of human resilience, the fragility of civilization, and the lengths people will go to when pushed to the brink.
