17-year-old Emile Reed, may have died, but she isn't dead. Her body now belongs to Program Thirteen, where her every thought, every movement, is controlled. Until Emile begins to find her way back inside of Thirteen's core, where she manages to fend off Thirteen’s programming to reclaim the life that she lost. But Charles McVeigh, the owner of Vesta Corp, isn’t willing to let Thirteen go. And he will stop at nothing to reclaim control of Thirteen's programming. Because without her, McVeigh has nothing.
What makes you human?
Program 13 by Nicole Sobon
Publication date: August 15th 2012
Genre: Young Adult Science Fiction - 15+
For The Cover Contessa's stop, Nicole has provided us with her playlist for Program 13. Let's take a look!
Program 13 Playlist:
1) White Lies – E.S.T
You can tie my hands to the walls
But you can't tie my dreams to this place
I might fall like a rock from your heart
But you won't see me fall from grace
But you can't tie my dreams to this place
I might fall like a rock from your heart
But you won't see me fall from grace
I listen to A LOT of White Lies while I write as they are my favorite band, and while To Lose My Life did serve as a huge chunk of the playlist while writing Program 13, E.S.T was the song I had on repeat the most. The lyrics above remind me of the battle between Emile/Thirteen and McVeigh.
2) Metric – Help, I’m Alive
I would post lyrics, but I think it is pretty easy to understand why this song as picked, haha. This song, to me, is what Emile feels like when she’s trying to break through.
3) Coldplay – Fix You
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
This song perfectly captures the friendship between Emile and Colton, they are both so broken, but they are trying to fix one another.
4) Nine Inch Nails – Every Day Is Exactly The Same
I can feel their eyes are watching
In case I lose myself again
Sometimes I think I'm happy here
Sometimes, yet I still pretend
I can't remember how this got started
But I can tell you exactly how it will end
In case I lose myself again
Sometimes I think I'm happy here
Sometimes, yet I still pretend
I can't remember how this got started
But I can tell you exactly how it will end
For me, this song captures Emile’s world perfectly, especially this part.
5) Spinnerette - Baptized By Fire
Have you ever been alone?
Fighting your own war?
Someone stole the life from you
And now they're back for more
Your heart is on the floor
Beating out of control
Oh I don't want this anymore
Fighting your own war?
Someone stole the life from you
And now they're back for more
Your heart is on the floor
Beating out of control
Oh I don't want this anymore
To me, this summarizes how Emile feels throughout the entire story.
Thanks so much for showing us your playlist, Nicole!
