The Warning by Kristy Acevedo is a good sci-fi young adult novel. I enjoyed reading this book, and the dystopian theme held my interest. As the premise states, the end is coming. What would you do?

The Warning is the first in a fast-paced and gripping dystopian series for anyone who's ever felt like their life and world are on the brink of destruction. The story revolves around Alexandra Lucas, who is caught between living in the moment and an unknown future. On the way home from a concert with her boyfriend, their train stops, and, at first, she's worried about breaking curfew. Then terror echoes through their train car.
A mysterious doorway has appeared beside the tracks, and a hologram claiming to be a human from the future shares a sinister warning. A comet is on a collision course with earth. All life there will end in six months' time. To survive, people must step through one of the many portals that have opened around the world.

The story is fairly fast-paced, and the ending is quite mind-blowing. There were some sad parts. I liked the characters and the storyline. A good start to this series. I hope to read more from this author and about these characters.

A 4 out of 5 stars.

This was a great concept for a young adult dystopian book, it had a interesting concept and I enjoyed going on this read. The story worked overall and I enjoyed trying to figure out what was going on, the characters were what I was looking for and were realistic. Kristy Aceverdo does a great job in telling the story and it left me excited to read more from the author.

"The day of the prisoner voting question I almost skip it and let other people deal with it. But the more I recall Dad and Benji discussing the need to leave all the prisoners behind regardless of crime because they gave up their rights long ago, the more I wonder if that’s what I want to happen. My vote matters, damn it. I decide to wield my invisible sword and cast my first and maybe last public vote."
