200 years in the future, the land is ruled by the mighty 'Spotif-Eye', everyone is a freelancer with an inflexible work schedule, and the end of humankind draws near. The dystopian musical comedy George Orwell never wrote introduces us to three sisters, a hair-obsessed Lieutenant, a mysterious Elder who speaks in song lyrics, and the one algorithmically perfect song that rules them all. Will the sweet sounds of sisterhood ring out and save humanity? Will they ever taste fresh kale juice? Will the revolution, in fact, be harmonized?

'Thriving Through Seasons': an enjoyable and heroic tale with an optimistic theme. 'Thriving Through Seasons' is the creation of published author, Sarah Wright, who is fourteen years old from Central Pennsylvania. She is affectionately called Reesy or Cupper by her family. Sarah is constantly creating in the kitchen and on paper. She is an animal lover who has two cats, a dog, chickens, and horses she cares for. Her family includes two brothers, one sister, and her mom and dad, Drexel and Virginia Wright. Her sister, Jenna, has multiple medical challenges that lead to paralysis. In order to cope with her family's medical battles, Sarah uses her love for writing to express her experiences, thoughts and emotions. These writings developed the story of 'Thriving Through Seasons.' Her main goal through this work and future projects is to uplift and inspire those who experienced suffering. Her passion is to lead people to Christ Jesus in a creative way so they may find hope in Him, as she did. This book challenged her to take a leap of faith to share her story with others.
