Reboot

The story is really good! I couldn't put the book down after the first few pages. I loved the main characters and how they interacted with one another. Wren and Callum seem to have excellent chemistry, and it's hard to picture Wren as a battle hardened and scar-laden zombie when she really appears as a petite blonde haired girl. The premise is even exciting, as it provides a different approach to the "zombie" menace where the reboot process creates potential super soldiers, instead of mindless flesh/brain-eating corpses.

Tintera does a great job with the dialogue and character interaction. I'd have to say the storyline, premise, and dialogue are the key factors in making this book a must-read.

The ending was rather abrupt and anti-climatic, but reading the book description on Amazon, the author is planning to release a sequel in 2014. The film rights have already been purchased, so we may see a movie in the future.

Throughout the entire book, I actually cared about the main characters and wanted to know how they turned out. To me, that is usually a sign of a good book that is worthwhile to read!

Overall: 5/5 stars, I loved this different approach to "zombies." The story and dialogue made the book an absolute delight to read.

Reboot Amy Tintera Books Reviews

Seven Reasons Why You Need to Read Reboot NOW

1. Story world. The story world Amy Tintera has crafted is one-of-a-kind. In fact, I didn't even realize that it's sort of a zombie tale until I read a review describing it as one. In Reboot, some humans that died of the KDH virus reboot, or wake up a stronger, faster and less emotional version of themselves. The longer it takes for the human to reboot, the less of his or her humanity remains. At 178 minutes, Wren is an unfeeling Reboot, the deadliest among them all. Reboots serve as soldiers of the HARC.

2. Wren. Wren is one kickass heroine. She is so cool and badass and she can kill you without batting an eyelash. I like my heroines strong yet secretly feeling and doubting. Still, she has her flaws and insecurities and my heart just went out to her as I got to know her. Her morbid past, how she coped, how she lives now by the HARC's orders, how she cares for her roommate Ever, everything about Wren will make the reader love her. Moreover, I especially like the imminent turnaround of her character from unfeeling to feeling when she met and got to know Callum. Which is the third reason why you should read Reboot!

3. Callum. Callum, oh Callum. At twenty-two minutes, Callum is pretty much human still. His skin is not as cold as Wren's, he still has color in his skin, his reflexes are more like of a human and he's still emotional. Callum is such an endearing character and a total contrast to Wren. While Wren doesn't even bat an eyelash when it comes to killing, Callum would rather die than kill someone. It's his humanity, evident care and worry for Wren and SMILE that ultimately broke Wren's barriers and made her feel and more alive than ever.

4. Callum and Wren. Goodness. As much as Reboot is a dystopian at its core, I think it's actually equal parts action and romance. Callum and Wren's relationship was definitely the spotlight as everything Wren did was for Callum and everything Callum did was for Wren. Everything else were just consequences of their actions or ways to ultimately protect each other. It was past midnight then and my shirt's in my mouth to muffle the sounds as I squirmed and squealed in happiness and giddiness and sweetness. Some people found Reboot's love story an instalove one but I didn't notice that at all. I guess I was too smitten by Callum and too awed by Wren but I just bought their romance. Sure, Wren goes from a 178 to a pile of mush and goo, trying to save Callum all of a sudden, but can you blame her? She died when she was 12 and nobody ever treated her like Callum did. No one broke through her barriers, her walls. No one took the time to get to know her. Which made her seem aloof. But Callum never shied away from her, poked at the right buttons and in return, Wren opened up to him, cared for him. I just adore how much they care for each other. I guess you'd have to suspend disbelief and just believe in the power of love to thaw someone's heart. Gah, that was so cheesy but this book made me sappy and such a hormonal teenager.

5. Cover. Reboot's cover is simple but I find it really good because even with the minimalist design, it's completely relevant to the novel. Each Reboot has a barcode in their wrist indicating how many minutes passed before they rebooted. The cover shows a 178. The sleek black and the contrast of red just makes you want to grab the book in your bookstore and check it out, right?

6. Action. The action in Reboot is off-the-charts! While a lot of the novel was spent inside the HARC facility, the missions and their imminent plans were so action-packed. At the end, all hell breaks loose and action fans like me will drool in its awesomeness. Some people found the events at the end a bit rushed but it is rushed. They were pressed for time! And you know how in action movies all the good blowing up and crashing and exploding happens at the end and how everything happens too fast, that's how it is in Reboot. So I have no qualms that the end was so packed with events because that's how you do it! I think teenage boys will definitely enjoy the action side to this but be wary though with the romance. But just imagine Chloe Moretz as Wren, there will be no problems at all. (Chloe Moretz is hot. Yes, I know she's young but can you just imagine her guns ablazin' and running and fighting? In my mind, Chloe Moretz IS Wren. The physical descriptions fit too!)

7. All the possibilities and room to explore. The ending just showed us a glimpse of the multitude of plots and twists that the world and story of Reboot can offer. Reboot is truly just the beginning and it has successfully established the whole series. It already explained how the population has been decimated by a virus, how the HARC controls humans and reboots alike and it already paved the way for all the wonderful plot arcs that will come. I am so excited for the sequel right after reading Reboot that I dreamed about possible events in book 2. Seriously, I dreamed them. I was tossing and turning in my sleep because of all the blood and action I witnessed in my dream. You can say I got obsessed with Reboot. Who dreams about sequels still not published? Apparently, me.

I remember staying up until 3AM just to finish this novel when I had to wake up early that morning. I honest to goodness read this in one sitting. With a radically distinctive premise and story world, a kickass heroine, a very endearing hero and love interest, a makes-you-weak-in-the-knees romance, Reboot is a more-than-engaging page-turner. I highly recommend this to fans of the dystopian genre and to those looking for a fresh take on the zombie fare. I also recommend this to romance fans alike. Go read Reboot NOW!
It took me a considerable amount of time to really get into this book. I kept putting it down, interested, but not compelled to keep reading. The concept certainly had me hooked, but an emotionless protagonist was hard to connect with. It was also hard to become invested in the reboot’s plight when I am still trying to figure out HARC. We got some insight, but it was mostly speculation. I like that is wasn’t fully explained, but I needed more to feel like I got a decent pay-off on completing the novel.

Our protagonist Wren was a hard character to like for the first three-quarters of the novel. An unfeeling, unemoting, assassinating machine does not warm your heart. It was her connection to the love interest Callum that finally had me beginning to like her and invest in their relationship. The interaction she had with her roommate, Ever, was limited as well. And later, when described as her best friend, I was still struggling to understand Wren completely. I think the narrative relies on the reader to attribute human emotions to the situations even though they are not represented in the written word.

Ever seemed a bit more present in the story. Where Wren was an observer for much of the novel, Ever was the subject. I got a quiet bravery and solidarity from her reflected in Wrens eyes.

Callum very much reminded me of a friendly puppy dog, always happy, wagging tail, smiling. The perfect balance to Wren’s stoic nature. He added layers of empathy that were absent and slowly engaged me in the story and shone a more flattering light on Wren. Though it seems he was only interested in her because she was cute. It wasn’t until much later in the novel we discovered other motives. And I wasn’t entirely convinced about how their relationship progressed. It didn’t fill me with love or angst… it was cute and okay, but didn’t sell me on the romance.

On the whole, the plot of this story is predictable. A few curve balls were thrown in with other arcs, which I thoroughly enjoyed, but they weren’t explored enough to give this novel the oomph it needed – I am expecting these to more developed in the second novel of the series ‘Rebel.’

Amy’s writing style is a little dry. She has moments of humour and manages to pace the novel well. But the beginning and middle sections of the book felt slow because of this flat narrative. Which could be in part because of Wren’s nature, and part because not much imaginative description and postulation regarding Wren’s surroundings and the world at large.

I’d recommend this to anyone who loves dystopian YA. It’s not the best I’ve read, but certainly entertaining.

For me, there felt like there were so many plot holes and unexplained phenomena to really get into, but we’ll see what happens in the sequel…
