LOVED, LOVED, LOVED Season 2. Read it in about 3 sittings (to the exclusion of alot of housework and maybe even some work AT work...I'm not admitting anything!). Could not put it down." -- Jkaustin02 ★★★★★ "This season confirms to me what Season One made me suspect - while I know Yesterday's Gone, by the same writers, has a big following, and I too loved it tremendously - WhiteSpace is officially my favorite! I'm so invested in the characters, I just can't wait for Season Three!!" -- lxiny ★★★★★ "I am an avid fan of Sean Platt and David Wright. I love their books and of course I'm a Goner. There are so many twists and turns that I find it difficult to stop reading. I have to force myself to stop and live my life. I am desperate to read Season three. The final twist at the end of the book was awesome." -- Adrienne F Ryans ★★★★★ "Absolutely loved this series, think Whitespace is now my favourite... Was yesterdays gone....(or possibly they are equal favourites) Truly couldn't put either of them down. Love all the characters, and the way each chapter finishes with a bang..." -- Tracie09 ★★★★★ "My problem with these authors is that I don't have nearly enough time in the day to keep up with all the books. I started with Yesterday's Gone and got hooked, now I've downloaded the next seasons and have not been able to get back to YG because I'm totally addicted to White Space." -- JLW WhiteSpace is a character-driven, mysterious, creepy, paranoid, sci-fi thriller that reads like the literary version of a televised serial with the mysteries of LOST and the future paranoia of Black Mirror.
