In this episode of Reading Held Hostage you need to picture your life outside of everything electronic and modern. Put yourself in the shoes of someone who has never seen a car, a camera, electricity or a black person. That is what the main character of this book is experiencing. Jessie from Running Out of Time is tasked by her mother to save her village before all the children die. Could you do it?
