Reboot (Reboot #1) by Amy Tintera - MMC GBR - Starting August 1st 2019

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Five years ago, Wren Connolly was shot three times in the chest. After 178 minutes she came back as a Reboot: stronger, faster, able to heal, and less emotional. The longer Reboots are dead, the less human they are when they return. Wren 178 is the deadliest Reboot in the Republic of Texas. Now seventeen years old, she serves as a soldier for HARC (Human Advancement and Repopulation Corporation).

Wren’s favorite part of the job is training new Reboots, but her latest newbie is the worst she’s ever seen. As a 22, Callum Reyes is practically human. His reflexes are too slow, he’s always asking questions, and his ever-present smile is freaking her out. Yet there’s something about him she can’t ignore. When Callum refuses to follow an order, Wren is given one last chance to get him in line—or she’ll have to eliminate him. Wren has never disobeyed before and knows if she does, she’ll be eliminated, too. But she has also never felt as alive as she does around Callum.

The perfect soldier is done taking orders.

I think I have this one as a physical book at home.
I love sci-fi genera.

[Maddie]

I think I'm starting this today!

[Shae]

I’m 6% in and find this so intriguing (view spoiler)[ I am loving the concept of reboots and how a disease caused this world to be like this. It’s interesting how humans are the security guards when the reboots are so strong etc. (hide spoiler)]

[Shae]

9% (view spoiler)[ so cool how when they become a reboot try all become attractive! (hide spoiler)]

[Shae]

Chapter 15 (view spoiler)[ Wren seems so much more human with these emotions and feelings she is experiencing for Callum!

Omg he betrayed her?? (hide spoiler)]

[Shae]

Chapter 25 (view spoiler)[ I wonder who it was that shot Wren before she turned into a reboot. It’s just so strange how they shot her 3 times and she was only 12, it’s like there’s more to it! (hide spoiler)]

[Shae]

Finished (view spoiler)[ I’m glad wren got Callum out and they both escaped those rebels. I’m excited to see where the next book goes with them arriving at reboot territory! (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Starting this!

[Maddie]

1% (view spoiler)[Already loving this! Right into the action! Hopefully I can keep up with the audio! (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[Yeah I'm reading quite a few apocalyptic books lately! Well disease books (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Shae wrote: "9% [spoilers removed]"

Seems kind of superficial to me. What's the point?

[Maddie]

14% (view spoiler)[Wow, the co-ed showers! Just so commonplace! (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

22% (view spoiler)[I really like 22! Such a friendly nice guy, and the relationship actually seems to be genuine, not forced or weird (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

26% (view spoiler)[Ooohhh a secret spy? Exciting! (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

37% (view spoiler)[Wonder why they're all going crazy trying to eat Callum? (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

42% (view spoiler)[I really want an inevitable relationship like this, where they just find themselves together, they didn't want a relationship, but they get to know each other and then realise they do. None of this dating app crap, it just happens. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

44% (view spoiler)[OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING'S WRONG YOU DUMB FUCK! Don't ask them what's wrong if clearly their helmets had been removed, you hear fighting and they don't respond! (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Will finish up this tomorrow, loving it so far!

[Courtney]

Chapter 4 (view spoiler)[ Of course she chose Callum. (hide spoiler)]

[Courtney]

Chapter 5 (view spoiler)[ What the heck did they do to Ever? (hide spoiler)]

[Courtney]

Chapter 15 (view spoiler)[ I cant blame Ever for attacking the guards, but she did lose her life over it. (hide spoiler)]

[Courtney]

Chapter 18 (view spoiler)[ Leb is helping her. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Courtney wrote: "Chapter 15 [spoilers removed]"

Especially when (view spoiler)[they did it to her in the first place, so they should try and fix it! What happens if they run out of Reboots? They just go around killing humans to make them Reboots? (hide spoiler)]

[Courtney]

Especially when [spoilers removed]"

Yeah they irritate me. I am totally on the Reboots side. Lol

[Maddie]

Exactly XD I'm loving this book so far! I should try the GBR more often, only that I don't get bonus points for them normally XD They should be a thing every month!

[Courtney]

Chapter 24 (view spoiler)[ Callum definitely got the shot. He has to have gotten it. Thats the only thing that make sense. (hide spoiler)]

[Courtney]

Shae wrote: "Chapter 25 [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ I am assuming it was her parents drug dealers, but I wouldnt be surprised if it was someone after her. (hide spoiler)]

[Courtney]

Chapter 27 (view spoiler)[ They have Adina. (hide spoiler)]

[Courtney]

Finished. I really want to read the next book now.

Yes I’m going to start it :) do you know if we use this thread for the buddy or somewhere else?

Sarah said we can use this one, but we gotta just post what book were reading (like we do on the series read along threads).

Ok sounds good! I’m going to start book 2 then :)

[Shae]

Chapter 1 (view spoiler)[ wow that just gets into it straight away with HARC shuttles approaching the reboot base.

I am interested to hear about Micah, especially as his number is so high like Wrens! I wonder if he is similar to her with reboot strength/ ability! (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

84% into Reboot! So far it's 5 stars, I'm loving it!

[Sharon]

Chapter 2: (view spoiler)[ So Callum is the first person to have rebooted in less than 40 minutes after dying? I find him interesting. I wonder what will happen between him and Wren? (hide spoiler)]

[Shae]

Chapter 4 (view spoiler)[ This could take a crazy spin with the reboots wanting to make the other reboots take out their birth control chips and procreate more reboots. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

90% (view spoiler)[I'm lost XD Who are these rebel people (hide spoiler)]

[Courtney]

Maddison wrote: "90% [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ The people Leb works with in secret. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Yeah I figured but hopefully we don't have to know each person individually XD

[Courtney]

Maddison wrote: "Yeah I figured but hopefully we don't have to know each person individually XD"

As of now you dont lol

[Maddie]

Okay good XD I don't want to have to relisten.

[Shae]

Chapter 6 (view spoiler)[ Micah is bad! Totally agree with wren that they need to get out of there. Wanting to eliminate the human race! So extreme. (hide spoiler)]

[Shae]

Chapter 34 (view spoiler)[ that was a bit cute! (hide spoiler)]

[Shae]

Chapter 38 and 39 (view spoiler)[ what nooooo!!!! Callum!!!! (hide spoiler)]

[Shae]

finished (view spoiler)[ I’m glad Callum healed himself and they are now creating a government where humans and reboots co govern! (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Chapter 12: (view spoiler)[ Oh no! Officer Mayer is not that happy with Wren. I like Wren and Callum training together. He is making her experiences things that she probably should of experienced before her reboot. (hide spoiler)]
