Witch and Wizard by James Patterson

Synopsis: The world is changing: the government has seized control of every aspect of society, and now, kids are disappearing. For 15-year-old Wisty and her older brother Whit, life turns upside down when they are torn from their parents one night and slammed into a secret prison for no reason they can comprehend. The New Order, as it is known, is clearly trying to suppress Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Being a Normal Teenager. But while trapped in this totalitarian nightmare, Wisty and Whit discover they have incredible powers they'd never dreamed of. Can this newly minted witch and wizard master their skills in time to save themselves, their parents--and maybe the world?


Review: I liked this story. It was about a brother and sister that were torn from their family. They were accused of being a witch and wizard. Neither had any idea that they were. When they are taken to a prison things start happening that they can't explain. They start to believe they have powers and try to find a way out to find their parents. There disappearing kids everywhere and now they know where the kids went. I liked the brother and sister and their relationship how they came together. Whit was trying to protect Wisty but found out she could take care of herself. They start a journey to find their parents but wind up rescuing kids that are in the prison where they were. I highly recommend this young adult book and I can't wait for the next one.
