Somehow when I was reading the blurb for this book before I requested it, I totally missed that there was time travel in it. That wouldn't have affected my request, but it would have likely made me understand a bit better more quickly. Time travel is a difficult concept to include in nearly any medi...

Viral Nation is a dystopian novel set in a fictive world, where the whole country of America has been swept down with a virus, crippling and killing almost every single person, so everyone has to take doses and doses of suppressants to keep themselves alive, where time traveling to two years isn't i...

Manchmal klingen die Zutaten einer Story danach, als ob es genau mein Ding sein müsste: Eine junge Autistin (mit liebenswertem Hund) lebt in einer dystopischen Gesellschaft und wird zu ihrer Überraschung rekrutiert, um an einem Zeitreiseprojekt teilzunehmen. Klingt, als ob nicht viel schief gehen ka...

At first, Viral Nation seems just like all of the other YA dystopian novels on the market: a horrible event (in this case, a virus) decimated the world’s population causing one group (the Company) to take charge. This group is believed to have the best interest of the people at heart until the main ...

Well done, Shaunta Grimes. This is the first book I have ever read by her, and I don't plan on it being the last! She quickly draws you in with a great prologue where a virus has broken out and most the the US population is dying. Suddenly there is a cure! But for many, it was too late. Each sta...
