#BookReview: The Q by Amy Tintera

Synopsis: Two teenagers from opposite worlds must fight their way through a vast walled quarantine zone in a dystopian America toward their only chance for survival.

Seventeen-year-old Maisie Rojas has spent her entire life in the Q—a post-pandemic quarantine zone that was once Austin, Texas. Born and raised behind the high security walls that sealed their fate, she's now a trusted lieutenant for one of the territory's controlling families.

Lennon Pierce, the charismatic son of a US presidential candidate, has just been kidnapped by his father's enemies and dropped out of a plane into the Q with nothing but a parachute strapped to his back. Lennon is given a temporary antidote to the disease and crucial intel for his father, but Maisie must get him out of the zone within forty-eight hours--or he will be permanently infected and forced to remain.

With unrest brewing both inside and outside the Q, reaching the exit is a daunting and dangerous task. But if Maisie and Lennon fail, it could mean disaster for the entire quarantine zone and its inhabitants—and could cost Lennon his life.

My Review: I loved the Reboot series and I wanted to love this one but it kind of reminded me of the Murder Complex but not in a good way.  I was kind of bored with the start of this one as it made me feel like I was in a pod cast.  I thin that it would have worked better as an audio book.  Now if this ever gets turned into a movie sign me up!! 

Review

"Ridiculously fun, romantic, and action-packed." - Kirkus Reviews

“[A] wildly inventive, cinematic read rooted in a near-future, post-pandemic world that sharply echoes contemporary society.” – Publishers Weekly, Starred Review

“[The Q] is undeniably page-turning and will satisfy any action-adventure aficionado.” – Booklist

“[Readers are] in for an action-packed adventure with a dash of romance, and there is clearly a vicarious triumph here from the empowerment that comes with reading about kids in a pandemic who can actually do something about it.” – The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
