I do want to say that I was quite indifferent about the story. I will try not to spoil this book too much, so you know what to expect when you read it, because I do believe everyone who has read – or hasn’t read – The Program series should read this book.


In an attempt to find out more about her life before she became Quinlan McKee, Quinn boarded a bus with Deacon – the only person she now trusts, leaving everyone she thought she had ever known and trusted behind, in pursuit of The Program’s founder Author Prichard who she believes, holds the key to her true identity. Until her patner and exboyfriend Deacon are assigned to two very similar cases, the both of them start to get suspicious as to why the details of the cases have been undiclosed to them.

The Epidemic picks up directly from where The Remedy left off. The outbreak of suicide described in the series is an epidemic as it is only confined to specific states in the USA where the series is set. Pandemic an epidemic is a widespread occurrence of an infectious disease in a community at a particular time, and a pandemic is a disease that is prevalent over a whole country or the world. No one knows what goes on on the inside.Įpidemic vs. They wish to control the people, contain the suicide epidemic, but they do not see the effect that they have on their victims.

They feed people lies of protection and wellbeing when in reality they’re ruining the very people’s lives in which they’re trying to save. The series tells the story of what would happen if suicide spread through teenagers like the common cold and it becomes the norm to hide one’s own feelings in order to not be suspected of being depressed. In this dystopian universe, a secret organization called The Program takes control of the situation and appeals to people’s fears.

So far, this series consists of four books and one ebook (which I read quite recently). The Epidemic is the fifth installment in The Program series. Ever since I finished reading The Remedy – the third installment in The Program series – almost five months ago, I have been asking and quite literally begging (and bugging) the librarians at my school library to buy Suzanne Young’s newest release, and latest installment in The Program series The Epidemic.
