#BookReview: The Line Between (The Line Between #1) by @ToscaLee






Synopsis: An extinct disease re-emerges from the melting Alaskan permafrost to cause madness in its victims. For recent apocalyptic cult escapee Wynter Roth, it’s the end she’d always been told was coming.

When Wynter Roth is turned out of New Earth, a self-contained doomsday cult on the American prairie, she emerges into a world poised on the brink of madness as a mysterious outbreak of rapid early onset dementia spreads across the nation.

As Wynter struggles to start over in a world she’s been taught to regard as evil, she finds herself face-to-face with the apocalypse she’s feared all her life—until the night her sister shows up at her doorstep with a set of medical samples. That night, Wynter learns there’s something far more sinister at play and that these samples are key to understanding the disease.

Now, as the power grid fails and the nation descends into chaos, Wynter must find a way to get the samples to a lab in Colorado. Uncertain who to trust, she takes up with former military man Chase Miller, who has his own reasons for wanting to get close to the samples in her possession, and to Wynter herself.

My Review: WOW this one was just WOW!! This pre-apocalyptic story was one of a kind and man was it good!!! I could not put it down and I really want to get this in print. This was the perfect story blend of dystopian and thriller and I just can not tell you how much I loved this one. This one never let up and I was never bored and I just didn't want it to end. Wynter was such a strong character and I loved her so much. If you are looking for a new thriller with a dystopian, cult twist then look no further than right here!! You won't be disappointed and it won't let you down!! 

This was the first book by this author that I had read but it will NOT be the last!! And I hear that this one was picked up for a movie or something so that's even better!!!
