Thanks for reading Lindsay! There is a sequel in the works. It's called Remembered and I'm hoping to have in out in the next few months. I'm really excited about it.

Babette wrote: "Ps: would love to know when the next boom comes out! :)"Hey Babette. Thanks for the review! I'm actually not sure when the next book. I was really hoping to have it out by now but I got a new job and until I can figure out how to balance the two it has to wait. However, I do have the cover up on my blog as well as the first chapter. Thanks for reading! :)

Hi Denise! Thanks for the review and for posting it on Amazon too! I'm glad you liked it. :)
Thank you for the chance to read and review your book. Here is the link to my review:
Fadeout by Christina J. AdamsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
* I received a free copy in exchange for my honest review."
Although a little confused in the beginning, Fadeout did not take long to draw me in. I read this book while extremely tired, but still I found myself very curious to find out what happened next. The scenario was interesting and something I haven't read yet. I feel fortunate to have signed up to read this book. She was able to reel me in and even surprise me at times.
The world Christina J. Adams created was relatively believable, and the characters were interesting. I was easily able to remember the characters and their roles which is always helpful. Silas, a 13 year old boy afraid for his sister, is a level-headed and easy to like character. His lack of emotional read from the machine does not correlate with was we as the reader know he is feeling. Other than that, it is nice to view the world through Silas's level and calculating eyes. I am curious to see what he will do next.I will also be curious to see the transformation of Jamar. I was a little confused as to some of his decisions towards the end, but I feel that for the most part I watched him change along the way.
I can deal with what some reviewers called the 'flat' characters of Lemuel and Tybas, as they seemed to serve their roles as they needed to at the time. I do agree that it would be interesting to see Lemuel developed more in the sequels. The end though somewhat short definitely leaves the reader asking for answers, but, at least in my opinion, it was not a frustrating cliff hanger.
Overall, I think it was a worthwhile read, and I will probably read the sequel(s).
