New Release: Ultraviolet Catastrophe by Jamie Grey

Jamie’s debut novel is an adorable, fun, science-y YA book. 

So of course I loved it. So much that I blurbed it:

“Smart and funny with a side of geeky awesomeness, Ultraviolet Catastrophe charmed me from the first page. It’s the kind of YA SF I love: fun, believable characters who take center stage, while still allowing the reader to play in a technology wonderland. With its contemporary, campy feel and a dash of romance, Jamie Grey’s debut novel was a thoroughly enjoyable read. I devoured it in a couple days.”

About the Book:

Quantum Electrodynamics. String Theory. Schrödinger’s cat. For
sixteen-year-old Lexie Kepler, they’re just confusing terms in her science
textbooks, until she finds out that her parents have been drugging her to
suppress her outrageous IQ. Now Branston Academy, a school run by the world’s
most powerful scientists, has tracked her down and is dying for her to attend –
as a research subject.

She takes refuge at Quantum Technologies, a secret scientific community where
her father works as a top-notch scientist, and begins her new life as girl
genius at Quantum High. But the assignments at her new school make the
Manhattan Project look like preschool – and Lexie barely survived freshman
algebra.

Her first big assignment – creating an Einstein-Rosen bridge – is also her
first chance to prove she can hold her own with the rest of QT’s prodigies. But
while working with the infuriatingly hot Asher Rosen, QT’s teen wonder, Lexie
uncovers a mistake in their master equation. Instead of a wormhole, the machine
they’re building would produce deadly ultraviolet rays that could destroy the
world. Now Lexie and Asher have to use their combined brainpower to uncover the
truth behind the device. Before everyone at Quantum Technologies is caught in
the ultraviolet catastrophe.

Congrats to Jamie on a wonderful debut novel!
