Whisper by DaveTheTurtleGuy

The year is 2050. Various measures to improve the quality of life for America's citizens have been put into place such as socialized healthcare and widely accessible housing. To avoid children growing up in abusive or even dangerous households, the government willingly provides housing amongst other resources for unwanted children. All is well, and there is no need to fear. Wildlife and native plants are scarce, but thanks to modern science, small populations of select species are coming back into the wild, new and genetically improved for their ever-changing environment. Yet, this is only one of this era's innovative concepts. This is an age of breakthrough scientific discoveries that can change the world for better... or for worse. In the name of science, those who suffer from severe mental illnesses are not seen as human anymore. In order to find more efficient treatment, the government has begun controversial yet widespread experimentation. Even after years of blood, sweat, and tears, the government's rigorous attempts to save these citizens have been futile. However, there is no need to fear, dear citizen, because these creatures can do us no harm. **Author's note** Hey! It's the author here. Sorry if this is cringe. Please keep in mind this is just a first draft after some minor edits. This is a work in progress, and just letting you know I'm totally open to feedback. Happy reading, and I hope you enjoy!

Looking For Hope by NefertitiFenison

After major coastal cities sink to the bottom of the ocean at the end of the twenty-first century, the richest inhabitants of Earth escape the planet to build new colonies in a distant solar system. Thirty six light years away from the Milky Way galaxy, centuries have passed and humanity is well established. Among the most notable establishments is a prestigious university for the study of alien biology. Moira, a girl with a pervasive developmental disorder, but a talented student nonetheless, navigates the challenge of interplanetary university life as she researches a rare and endangered species. When a deeper threat emerges that challenges the existence of these creatures, she must team up with her classmates and find a solution to a problem much bigger than they could ever hope to be. ***** Credits: The cover is courtesy of the brilliant @vertigo_moon from The Vertigo Graphics while the line editing/proofreading/grammar check was done with a lot of input from Halyn Bleiz a.k.a vin_elend from the Floret community and Katie Marie from the Coven of Bookworms community. They have my gratitude. The blurb was written with some help from @RowanCarver and I am thankful for her feedbacks.

Population levels have reached critical, forcing the government to step in. A new system is built - an assigned mate for 16-year-olds, one child per family, all done with a computer algorithm. Careers are determined by what job is needed and best suited for. Any deviation and they face the risk of becoming a Lower--the unwanted dregs of society. Or sometimes something far worse. Rebecca hates the system. She's paired with a cookie-cutter human called Jake, sees her dream job given away to a liar, and is forced to work in endless code as a programmer. Nothing is what she would choose for herself. When she and a boy with many secrets, Scott, discover a flaw in the system, they realize they can change everything. Jake could be with his real love. Rebecca could follow her dream of writing. Society can be turned on its head with the sweep of a keystroke. If they're caught, they face a fate far worse than becoming a Lower.

L.O.T.U.S by SeleneCC101

In a dystopian world, overpopulation has resulted in a society that is purely focused on the survival of the human race. For the women of Lotus, there are two options: assist in the repopulation of the species that suffers an abnormally high infertility rate or leave in a body bag. Kaira's bleak future takes a turn and she is forced to leave her home to go to Pine, the capital of Lotus. Side note: in the near future, I will be changing a few things within the story.

The Bearing by violetstardove

The Numbered by bnlfan

When the Sun Begins to Die by Thatonefnaflover

Seventeen year old Cadence Buds is a normal teenager in a dying world. Well, the world isn't dying, but the sun is. It has been dying for several years now, but the effects are finally starting to come about. The sun has even been changing color. The government has been working on a plan to save a portion of the human population for quite some time. There are so many problems with the sun dying. The oceans will evaporate from the inevitable explosion, everything will be dark and nothing will be able to grow, the world will freeze over, everything will be destroyed. The sun is also giving off toxic radiation while it dies, making the world especially dangerous. The government's solution to this problem is to build a radiation proof dome over a large area. There will be synthetic heat, light, and seasons. The cost to enter such an oasis is very expensive. It is hundreds of thousands of dollars per ticket. However, there is another way to get in. Once the sun dies many will die with it. It might even vaporize part of the planet in its blast. No one knows for sure. But the world will need a larger population. You can earn your place in the dome if you agree to have a child to save the human race. This obviously only applies to women. Now remember Cadence? He is biologically female. He has been on testosterone for two years and is trying to transition in this world. Unfortunately that is horribly expensive where he lives. His family however is more focused on saving their lives from the dying sun. His parents had just enough money to afford his sister a ticket. She could not have children because she was barren. Cadence however could have children if he wished, but he didn't. Having a child meant undoing all of his hard work. He is told that in order to survive that he must have a child within the next two years. Two years is a long time, but he never wanted to have children. What will Cadence do once his two years have come to an end?

Scars Of 2039 by EmineKoldemir

It's the year 2060. The last world war was fought not with soldiers, but with code, machines, and stolen time. Democracy is dead. Earth is dying. And those who survived rule with knowledge they should've destroyed. Now, survival depends on power-and power depends on what you find first. This is a story of war beyond borders. War beyond time. War beyond galaxies. We used to fear nuclear bombs. Now we fear the collapse of space itself. We thought we were building the future. We didn't realise we were rewriting it. This isn't just a story. This is our future.
