Content: Als Isaac der überirdisch schönen Roxy begegnet, zieht sie ihn sofort in ihren Bann. Er fühlt sich lebendig wie nie, alles ist leicht und nichts scheint unmöglich. Isaac ahnt nicht, dass Roxy kein normales Mädchen ist, sondern eine Droge, hergestellt in einem Labor, um die Menschen von ihrem Schmerz zu befreien. Und Millionen Menschen lieben sie dafür. Doch das ist Roxy nicht genug. Sie will beweisen, wie tödlich sie ist. Neal und Jarrod Shustermans neuer Fantasy-Thriller über ein hochaktuelles Thema: die im wahrsten Sinne toxische Liebesgeschichte zwischen Mensch und Droge - schillernd & gefährlich. Erzählt aus der Perspektive der Droge - Stell dir vor, Drogen wären Menschen wie du und ich ... Was würden sie fühlen, denken und wovon würden sie heimlich träumen? 〈Verlagstext〉

Content: " When the California drought escalates to catastrophic proportions, a group of teens is forced to make life and death decisions in this harrowing story of survival from New York Times bestselling author Neal Shusterman, and Jarrod Shusterman. The drought –,or the Tap-Out, as everyone calls it –,has been going on for a while now. Everyone's lives have become an endless list of don'ts: don't water the lawn, don't take long showers, don't panic. Until the taps run dry. Suddenly, Alyssa's quiet suburban street spirals into a warzone of desperation,neighbours and families turned against each other on the hunt for water. And when her parents don't return, she and her younger brother must team up with an unlikely group in search of water. Each of them will need to make impossible choices to survive. "

Content: Rezension(1): "〈a href=http://www.publishersweekly.com target=blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/pw_logo.png alt=Publisher's Weekly border=0 /〉〈/a〉: Starred review from August 27, 2018 In Neal Shusterman ( Thunderhead ) and son Jarrod’s near-future or alternate-present America, a prolonged drought (“the Tap-Out”) results in the sudden curtailment of Southern California’s water supply. When their parents vanish while seeking desalinated water, 16-year-old Alyssa and 10-year-old Garrett embark on a harrowing journey, searching for their parents and fending for themselves as society deteriorates. Along the way, the siblings pick up three teens: their survivalist neighbor Kelton, unpredictable lone wolf Jacqui, and calculating opportunist Henry. This thriller alternates between the teens’ distinct and plausible viewpoints, occasionally supplementing with brief “snapshots” of others (a fleeing family, a news anchor) dealing with the escalating catastrophe. The dynamic core-character relationships are satisfying, and the intersection of their narrative with the snapshots adds depth to briefly glimpsed characters and illuminates the full scale of the disaster. The lack of warning before the long-looming crisis breaks may require some initial suspension of disbelief, but the palpable desperation that pervades the plot as it thunders toward the ending feels true, giving it a chilling air of inevitability. It is also thoroughly effective as a study of how extreme circumstances can bring out people’s capacity for both panic and predation, ingenuity and altruism. Ages 12–up.

Content: " What starts off as a lighthearted competition to live without modern technology for a year turns into a fight for survival in this unputdownable young adult thriller by New York Times bestselling author Jarrod Shusterman and debut author Sof237 a Lapuente. It was never meant to happen this way. Things were never supposed to get this out of hand. After a cyberbullying incident at her school goes viral, Luna Iglesias finds herself at the heart of a brewing controversy. When the social media company Limbo8212 who are also implicated in the scandal8212 sweeps in with an offer that sounds like an opportunity to turn over a new leaf and receive a scholarship to the college of her dreams, she's happy to jump on the new trend. It's called the Retro Challenge, where contestants live without modern technology, wear vintage clothes, party as if the future weren't already written, and fall in love as if they were living in a movie.At first, the challenge is fun. But then things get dangerous. Kids start disappearing, including Luna's friends. There are voices in the woods. Bloodred markings on the trees. And Luna increasingly begins to wonder if all these strange happenings are connected with the Retro Challenge. Secrets. Lies. Betrayal. The weight of her family on her shoulders. There's so much on the line for Luna, not to mention she's falling in love with the last guy she expected. Unless she can figure out the truth behind who's sabotaging the challenge, the next person to disappear may be Luna herself."

After Samantha shoplifts but lets her friend Luna take the fall for her crime, Luna is rightfully enraged--and not least because her mother, a Spanish immigrant, is at risk of losing her visa to remain in the U.S., making any sort of criminal activity especially harmful. Luna uploads a video of a drunk Samantha bad-mouthing her friends and other classmates to Limbo, the social media app everyone's obsessed with. Even though she has regrets and deletes it shortly after, she isn't fast enough, and the video goes viral. The harsh response results in Samantha's attempting to take her own life. The fact that she survives alleviates some of Luna's guilt, but she still sends a private message to the app developers, explaining her role in what happened and asking for their help as she seeks accountability. Much to everyone's surprise, the Limbo CEO comes to their school and proposes a challenge: Any student who manages to go the entire school year without using technology, including their phones, will receive a full-ride scholarship to college. As the year progresses, however, some of Luna's friends disappear and the real nature of #RetroChallenge becomes clear. Though the fast pace will appeal to reluctant readers, it comes at the expense of character development and relationship-building, making it hard to feel attached to any of them. The stilted dialogue poses another obstacle. A disappointing, unfulfilling journey with forgettable characters. (Thriller. 13-17) COPYRIGHT(2022) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

The fallout prompts the proprietors of Limbo, the social media app hosting the video, to step in to rectify the situation. The company unveils a new program in partnership with the school: the Retro Challenge, which invites students to eschew modern technology to simplify their lives and earn a full college scholarship. As Luna and other students set aside their online lives, they initially feel a newfound freedom. But as she progresses through the challenge, Luna begins to suspect that Limbo has ulterior motives for its generous offer. Despite a somewhat contrived premise, the story explores the divides modern technology can create in young people's lives. The story hews close to sci-fi, with the Limbo company employing futuristic resources that must be countered by the young protagonists. Even so, the themes of the book are prescient, asking readers to consider how much they are manipulated by the devices that are supposed to make life easier.
