The Lives We Lost
by Megan Crewe
Disney/Hyperion, February 12 2013
young adult sci-fi/apocalyptic

Summary (from Goodreads):

A deadly virus has destroyed Kaelyn’s small island community and spread beyond the quarantine. No one is safe. But when Kaelyn finds samples of a vaccine in her father's abandoned lab, she knows there must be someone, somewhere, who can replicate it. As Kaelyn and her friends head to the mainland, they encounter a world beyond recognition. It’s not only the “friendly flu” that’s a killer—there are people who will stop at nothing to get their hands on the vaccine. How much will Kaelyn risk for an unproven cure, when the search could either destroy those she loves or save the human race?

I really enjoyed the first book, The Way We Fall -- Megan Crewe got me to care about the characters with a simple but unique writing style, and I totally want to know whether Kaelyn succeeds. Plus, Gav. <3
