Fifty years ago, the Commander came into power and murdered all who opposed him. In his warped mind, the seven deadly sins were the downfall of society. He created the Hole, where sinners are branded according to their sins and might survive a few years. At best. Now LUST wraps around my neck like blue fingers strangling me. I've been accused of a crime I didn't commit, and now the Hole is my new home. Every day is a fight for survival. But I won't die. I won't let them win. The Hole can't keep me. The Hole can't break me. I am more than my brand. I'm a fighter. My name is Lexi Hamilton, and this is my story.

Critic reviews

"Branded was a riveting and exciting dystopian read that will have you at the edge of your seat." (Ben Alderson, Booktuber at BenjaminofTomes)
All stars

The whole story is well written, shrouded in elegant suspence with just a touch of romance. I enjoyed Lexi's victories and shared in her sorrows. Though, be prepared, once Branded sucks you in, you never want to leave the world of the Hole. You will be engrossed even to the bittersweet end.

Would you listen to Branded again? Why?

Yes, loved the narrator. She was brilliant, wonderful to listen to & very entertaining.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I loved Cole, he was sweet, living and protective. Plus he comes with a canine protector too, Zeus.

What does Jorjeana Marie bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Her voice is so easy to listen to and the way she changes tones for the different characters was awesome. I even grabbed another book narrated by her because I loved her so much.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

It would have to be the main fight scene towards the end. When they all confront the Commander. That was very emotional.

Absolutely Fabulous - great narrator

Not a bad YA story. It wasn't mind blowing great but I would probably listen to the next book. Some things were pretty predictable others surprising. Honestly, I listened to this book because of the dog. I have Great Danes so any story with a Dane in it, I will listen to.
The narration was good. I liked her voice for most of the characters.. She did come across as gratingly childish at times when I think it wasn't the authors intention. All in all, it entertained and isn't that why we listen to fictional stories? 😊

I had high hopes for this book, but it was not good l. I could not even finish the book and I never do that. even when I don't like a book I need to know how it ends but this book just annoyed me. The characters were not likable. there were plot holes and the dialogue was bad.

ugh. too wordy. repetitive.

This book surprised me. I did not expect to like it as much as I did! By the end of the book, I was hooked. Be warned though; once you become addicted and get through books one and two, you will have to break out the kindle for book three. It is not on audible.

The first half of this book was really dark and some creepy moments too. Luckily I was already invested in the characters and wanting to see where this bizarre story was headed and I'm so happy I did! The last few chapters were crazy...and the ending was really well done. I'm highly impressed with this book and I can't wait for another!

The Best Ending! I want more!

Its an amazing book it's very time-consuming I loved every minute of it it's just plain amazing The character development is amazing, the book is written by two riders but you really don't see the difference between the writing so you don't really know when Abby is riding or when Missy is writing. Overall the book is just amazing
