In Contagion by Teri Terry, Scotland is caught in the grips of an epidemic that threatens to kill 95 % of the population. The other 5%, well they just go missing…. Shay, our main character, starts falling in love with a boy she’s only just met while helping him to find missing sister. She catches the disease and once infected, is changed forever. Filled with attention deficit approved short chapters, action that makes you think, and a romance that’s easy to follow (no love triangles), we recommend this book to anyone who enjoys YA with heroes who use common sense, and science fiction based on possible real world circumstances (think 13 Monkies).
