As if Alexandra Lucas’ anxiety disorder isn’t enough, mysterious holograms suddenly appear from the sky, heralding the end of the world. They bring an ultimatum: heed the warning and step through a portal-like vertex to safety, or stay and be destroyed by a comet they say is on a collision course with earth. How’s that for senior year stress?
The holograms, claiming to be humans from the future, bring the promise of safety. But without the ability to verify their story, Alex is forced to consider what is best for her friends, her family, and herself.
To stay or to go. A decision must be made.With the deadline of the holograms’ prophecy fast approaching, Alex feels as though she is living on a ticking time bomb, until she discovers it is much, much worse.

This book sounds so fascinating! Holograms that appear from the sky? This seems like such a unique concept. Sometimes, dystopian can be hit or miss, but I’m sure that this one will be very enjoyable!
ooh this one sounds so interesting and it’s one I hadn’t heard of before. Great pick! My WoW
I hadn’t heard about this one yet either. It looks really good. Thanks for sharing it! My WoW
This book seems nice you’re right. One more to look after maybe I must begin to sell my soul for money lol
I know that feeling all too well!
This definitely sounds intriguing! Good pick, I’m going to make note of this one 🙂
My WoW
Definitely a fascinating concept I really hope this one won’t let me down!
This certainly sounds interesting and unique, I can see why you’re waiting on it to release! Look forward to hearing more about this one and hope it lives up to its storyline.
I am not too sure that this book would be a good one for me, but it does sound interesting.
Here’s to hoping this one will finally be the book that gets me back into YA dystopia !!
There have been quite a few dystopians out there, for sure! Crossing my fingers for you!!
Wow! This sounds very ominous! I don’t think I would trust future humanity and step through the vortex. I’d take my chances with the comet, if there even is one! (cue creepy music)
