Day Zero by Kelly deVos

5.0

Fast-paced, non-stop action in this YA thriller. Thank goodness there is a second in the series. The question that the reader is left with is, what do you do when the world is against you? Who can you trust? That is what Jinx Marshall needs to figure out. Her world has collapsed figuratively and literally around her. She has been trained by her prepper father since she was little for disasters and now the time has come to put those lessons together. Jinx is a young girl, determined to set the record straight. She is well written as is her much younger brother Charles. He too has been ready since he was a toddler for any kind of disaster. His character is written with both humor but with a tinge of youthful innocence, reminding the reader that he is only 8. Jinx is his protector, as are his step-siblings Toby and MacKenna. I will say the cliffhanger left me frustrated but it is understandable when you get to the end of the book. Looking forward to the next book!!
