In the After by Demitria Lunetta
4.0
I picked this book up after I ordered it in my January book order just because it was lunch, I forgot my book at home, and it was on our "new book" shelf. Quickly, I found myself captivated by the book, wanting to keep turning the pages to find out what happened next. It's a quick read filled with all kinds of interesting (yet sometimes predictable) twists and turns. It reminds me a bit of my favorite book this year, The Fifth Wave, but it has it's own unique voice. It will definitely be one I will add to my book talks on Tuesday. I look forward to recommending this one to students, and it will definitely be one where I will pick up the sequels and read them. That's always the mark of a good YA book to me.
