First, the virus took Kaelyn's friends. Then, her family. Now it's taken away her home.But she can't look back--the life she once had is gone forever. A deadly virus has destroyed Kaelyn's small island community and spread beyond the quarantine. No one is safe. But when Kaelyn finds samples of a vaccine in her father's abandoned lab, she knows there must be someone, somewhere, who can replicate it. As Kaelyn and her friends head to the mainland, they encounter a world beyond recognition. It's not only the "friendly flu" that's a killer--there are people who will stop at nothing to get their hands on the vaccine. How much will Kaelyn risk for an unproven cure, when the search could either destroy those she loves or save the human race? Megan Crewe's second volume in the Fallen World trilogy is an action-packed journey that explores the resilience of friendship, the ache of lost love, and Kaelyn's enduring hope in the face of the sacrifices she must make to stay alive.

2 starsThis was still so sad. It's just a depressing read and seeing everything through Kaelyn's perspective is nauseating. She's just sooooooooo.... self-centered. It's alll about her and what shes has lost or learned or has to do or feels.I feel like killing folks to survive an epidemic like this ...

Why was this so boring? WHY? I also realized I have no idea about Canadian geography. Kaelyn is saying "Oh, we have to travel all the way to Toronto," and I'm thinking, "Is that far??"I have no idea!!So this book was very, very slow-moving and it made me feel inadequate in my 5th grade geography ...
