About this listen

Return to the world of the bestselling Running Out of Time with this middle grade thriller from Margaret Peterson Haddix, where Zola discovers she’s related to Jessie Keyser and her seemingly perfect utopian world is covering up a dark reality.

Twelve-year-old Zola thinks she has the perfect life. She thinks everyone does, now that it’s 2193, and humanity has solved all its problems. Insta-Closets deliver new clothes every morning, Insta-Ovens deliver gourmet meals on demand, and virtual reality goggles let her have any adventure she wants, with friends from all over the world.

Then one day Zola finds a handwritten note in her Insta-Closet:

If you want to see things as they really are, come find me.

What if Zola’s wrong about everything—even the year? As she struggles to figure out who wrote the note, she discovers a printed book in her Insta-Closet called The Jessie Keyser Story: How One Girl Escaped from Clifton Village. Zola wonders: Who is Jessie Keyser, and why does she look like her . . . and what else do they have in common?

In this sequel to the classic novel Running Out of Time, Margaret Peterson Haddix has crafted a riveting story that captures the terrors of a world where nothing seems real—but finding out who really loves you still matters.

Meh Sequel

I loved the first book. I couldn't wait to find out what happens next. This one was just a recycling of the first book, but making less sense. There was no reason why the people didn't just leave. It was explained so much better in the first book.

Ehhhh

The first book was a childhood favorite. I e reread it many times as an adult. The sequel fell short and didn’t seem plausible. I wanted a continuation of Jessie’s story, I guess. This was more like a redo of the first.
