(4) YA Fifteen-year-old Pearl is ecstatic to have changed from "a child to a woman"--she can now be a Companion to the all-powerful patriarch, Papa S. But with her new status comes a more sinister view of the cult community of Seed. Pearl is occasionally an unsympathetic protagonist, but this debut novel's well-paced plot, stirring climax, and provocative concept compensate.
