The Maasai Mara Sleeping Syndrome has returned after a six-month hiatus. This time, it's popped up in New York, and it's wiped out an entire homeless shelter.
The same night of the outbreak, Harper, a seventeen-year-old girl, stumbles across a glowing figure in the desert outskirts of her neighborhood. As her suburb goes on lockdown, Harper finds herself isolated from her friends and family, and soon begins to suspect that the events — though thousands of miles apart — may have something in common. Harper must find her bravery and embark on a plot-twisting adventure that will have her looking for answers in unexpected places... and worlds. Thank you to Netgalley and Ruby & Topaz Publishing for sending me a copy in exchange for my honest review. Pros:
Cons:
Overall: A fun read as long as you have time for a commitment and are ready to process the worldbuilding. 3/5 stars for the story and creativity, docking 2 for the length and repetition. I would read the second book in the series, but I know where to put my expectations for the time commitment after having read Potency.
