There are two main characters in the story "Scythe", There names are Citra and Rowan. Citra and Rowan are very different yet very similar. Citra came from a family that loved her and helped her through life, she only has one little brother so their family is pretty small. Rowan and his friend Tyger (who is only seen in the first half) call themselves the lettuce because they were both born somewhere sandwitched between large families and were far from being their parents favorites.
Some of the background characters are:
*Tyger, Rowans best friend but is rarely seen
*Rowan's parents/family, they are only mentioned helping Rowan once
*Citra's parents, mentioned only at the beginning

The connection would Text to Text because this book reminds me of another book called "2312" written by Kim Robinson. Both books take place in the far future and have very advanced technology. The only difference between them is that "Scythe" takes place on planet Earth while "2312" takes place on different planets.
Scythe is a 400+ paged book written by Neal Shusterman. There are two books to the series, Both books can be found here, in the MVMS Library
