Here is the Book Club’s brief description of Scythe:  An intriguing book involving a world without natural death; except for scythes, who are trained to kill in any way possible. The book follows two unsuspecting scythe apprentices through their journey to scythehood. With an honorable scythe mentoring them, Rowan and Citra  face all the necessary steps to becoming a scythe, and MANY more problems along the way. Now included in the fight between the new and old order scythes, Citra and Rowan struggle to become honorable and keep their morals. And obviously there’s a much needed secret romance to keep the romantic interest going!
