What would happen if the Chernobyl disaster happened in America?
This book was written to be an action movie script, edge of your seat with no breaks in the drama.
A bit cheesy and at times unrealistic, but it ultimately was a fun and fast read

Overall - 4/5. I happened into this book at Park Road Books in Charlotte - the cover looked intriguing and somewhat familiar and once I saw the autographed copy sticker - I decided it was coming home with me. This was such a bingable thriller and I couldn’t put it down!!! I’m not going to lie - I had ALL the feelings during this book grief, sadness, anger, hope, etc. I thought it did a great job of conveying different emotions in the reader during different chapters. I think I had more emotions with this book than your usual thriller - and I really enjoyed it. She also did a fantastic job of pulling you into the characters in a quick time and wanting them to succeed and be okay. I wouldn’t consider it a typical thriller due to that - but I really liked it! I also felt a bit confused with the details of some of the things of the nuclear power plant - but appreciated how much research it seems like she did to perfect the science.
I really enjoyed reading TJ Newman and have already added her other books to my TBR! If you like fast paced action thrillers that really explore humanity and resilience- then you’ve found your next book!

A 5 star read knocked down because the beginning chapters were a bit of a struggle to get through (I had started the book once before, hit a stopping point and quit reading.) I get these chapters help set everything up but it's a lot of information and characters and events all at once and was a struggle for me to process what was plot setting and what was more important. But ultimately, the more into the book I got, the faster the pages turned. And the information about nuclear power plants and their vulnerabilities should be frightening to everyone.
