Warcross by Marie Lu

Warcross is an action-packed story revolving around a virtual reality game called Warcross. The game is a global phenomenon, and teenage Emika Chen is both a hacker and a bounty hunter, but she is banned from the game itself. When the game's creator, a young Japanese billionaire, discovers Emika, he inserts her into the game as a "wild card" and also as a spy. Emika deals with her new team, a secret romance, and some serious ethical decisions. Middle schoolers who read action-packed dystopian books love this book. Great for fans of Divergent, Ready Player One, Cinder, The Red Queen, In the After, and The Selection.
