Before Takeoff

Author(s): Adi Alsaid

Young Adult

Two teens meet and fall in love during a layover-gone-wrong at the Atlanta airport in this thrilling new novel from the author of Let's Get Lost!

James and Michelle find themselves in the Atlanta airport on a layover. They couldn't be more different, but seemingly interminable delays draw them both to a mysterious flashing green light-and each other.

Where James is passive, Michelle is anything but. And she quickly discovers that the flashing green light is actually . . . a button. Which she presses. Which may or may not unwittingly break the rules of the universe-at least as those rules apply to Hartsfield-Jackson Airport.

Before they can figure up from down, strange, impossible things start happening- snowstorms form inside the B terminal, jungles sprout up in the C terminal, and earthquakes split the ground apart in between. And no matter how hard they try, it seems no one can find a way in or out of the airport.


James and Michelle team up to find their families and either escape the airport or put an end to its chaos-before it's too late.
