YPP-234: The New Plague
Following a control breach at a top-secret facility, a weapons grade biological pathogen, YPP-234, escapes and quickly spirals out of control. It is deadly, it is fast, and it goes unnoticed until it is too late.
YPP-234 isn’t just a manmade biological weapon, it is a manmade extinction level event.
Now it is out.
Returning home from a successful business venture, Ellis Ridge is trapped inside a plane on a tarmac in New York City. More than quarantined, he and others are prisoners, not because someone on the plane is patient zero, but rather someone on the plane is the weapon.
Cut off from all factions of communication and news, Ellis is unaware of the danger so close and that the world around him is falling apart. He just wants to leave and get home to his family. Something that may not be as easy as he thinks and the outcome not as hopeful as he believes.
YPP-234 is a stand-alone novel.

Started off very strong, fast-paced and bleak ended predictable and a bit cliched. The whole thing with the scientist and made little to no sense to me and it just got tedious.

As is the case with most of this author's books, a good editor is badly needed. There was a lot of poor sentence structure, wrong words (ex: "The office, who spoke English nodded at the ambulance driver then turned to Lenore."-Officer not office and missing a comma; "breach of ethnics,"-ethics not ethnics), mistakes in character names (Monty and Jen are at the WV camp, yet at one point Monty becomes Josh). You get the idea. The writing is at best a 2 star. But, as is also the case with this author, the story is great. Whilst it is painful to read a story marred by poor editing, I found myself absorbed by it, especially with a strong cast of characters. They are a group of good decent people who survived and are trying to help others, esp General Scott (and all Star Trek fans will love the name Montgomery Scott) and Dr Trent. Probably more minor, but I really liked that Ellis's ex wife and current wife had such a good relationship, instead of the more common acrimonious type. I really did enjoy the book, but frustrated at the poor execution.

I've been in the mood for some post apocalyptic stories lately, so I gave YPP-234 a try. Sadly I had to give it up about 30% in because I just couldn't get past the editing mistakes that got through the proofreading process (if there was any). I get typos and such sneak by even the best editors, but this is full of run on sentences, excess commas and basic mistakes (then instead of than, one paragraph a character's name is Morrow, the next it's Morrows, etc.) that had me constantly rereading sentences just to make sure I was fully understanding things. For some readers maybe this isn't such a big deal, but it just takes me right out of the story.
It's too bad because I do think the author has something with this story, hence the three star rating, but the execution is sadly lacking. I have way too many books on my wish to read list to continue on with one that has so many basic errors.

I thought this was going to be more of a mystery/tracking down patient zero thing, but it just ended up being literary and more about relational/familial drama. It started off strong, but there were a lot of plot holes, and the typos were really bad. I wish it had focused more on the sci-fi elements rather than rabbit-holing into the even more tropey "we're all terrified and make dumb choices" narrative.

Great Story!
Taking place in the near future, a scientist is hired to create the ultimate infection that can't be cured. After making the ultimate biological weapon, YYP-234, he decides to go public. Meanwhile, a 3rd party attempts to steal this extraordinarily virulent and contagious pathogen, ultimately exposing someone, and now it's a race to try to contain the infection.
There are several characters whose paths ultimately intersect. Character development is well done and I found I did care what happened to each of them.
This certainly was a page-turner. Druga must have hired a proofreader since there were fewer errors, but then it wouldn't be Druga if it didn't have spelling mistakes.

Book 1
Book 1 was a fun read and had errors throughout. This book was surprisingly good. The rhythm and changes in the book was well done. The plot and characters are developed well, but was a bit predictable at times. The plot overall is probable in its own way and the characters have interesting backgrounds. The book was slow in some places, but was not as graphic as some apocalyptic books.

An okay read with some issues.
The world is ending and is all thanks to a man-made biological weapon. The kind of premise and setting I enjoy, this novel reads with the apocalypse in a bio-warfare kind of scenario. Simple enough, but also good enough to grab the attention of the reader. The novels starts with a strong series of fast-paced chapters through a series of POVs in a variety of interconnected scenarios. The book takes a while to build up the story. It manages to create a believable atmosphere and dreadful vibe of the upcoming doom, and by the time it actually hits you... well, it's actually meh.
The novel suffers a bit from an odd pace. There's multiple characters and it jumps constantly between them, sometimes only a few pages short and you are already reading something else. It does help create a more panoramic view of the story, but it also means that it doesn't give you enough time to properly digest the story and the characters themselves, which ultimately makes it feel convoluted, going at neck-break speeds.
The ending act of the novel feels the weakest of them all, sadly. It starts with a strong setting but ends in an anticlimatic whimper. By the time the virus manages to hit the globe, it just does. You are told that this bio weapon is capable of extinguishing all of humankind, but you don't actually get to see it in action. There's a few scenes here and there that mostly try to show you how empty everything feels, but there's no sense of panic, no sense of destruction and total collapse. It just happens in a few pages and then we are at the end. Felt that I was cut from what should have been the best/most intense part of the story.
The ending felt like a slug. There was little emotion and no purpose for the story to continue. It manages to fit a cheap plot device near it, and it just ends. Ultimately, it could have been much better. I rather have a slow/boring start, than a disappointing ending, and this one well, it never really managed to scratch the surface of what could have been a way better story.
It is a short read, at least, but not the best one. Mildly entertaining.

good storyline…
I loved the storyline and I would have given this 4 stars if it weren’t for all the grammatical errors. It seems as though the author rushed too much towards the end. It got harder and harder to read. But I loved the idea behind the book. Character development was good as well.

This is a really good first in series! I did enjoy this, a virus may end the world! I liked the ideas & storyline, the overall energy of the book! Good stuff! I will definitely be looking forward to the next part! Can't wait to see where it will go!

Oof. This is one of those rare books where the technical writing is SO bad that while reading, it actually detracts from your enjoyment. It’s almost as if she turned in a rough draft…and then published it.
The United States Army has a lab in Murcia, Spain. An attack on the laboratory that houses the ultra-lethal, plague-inducing YPP-234 pathogen…
Odd, frenetic style. Time jumps from paragraph to paragraph.
The (lack of) editing. Eek.
Commas or periods for questions marks.
Missing and/or inappropriate punctuation is a constant, throughout the novel.
Missing quotation marks.
Just a few lowlights:
“A breach of ethnics”
“Defiantly hacked that, too” (a computer, not a loogie)
“every once and a while”
The weapon, the capture, the payoff, the new weapons, quarantine zones, the buyer with the private island…
At times, her story ideas and narratives are so cool. But the writing is absolutely sloppy; completely slipshod.
The Germany stuff, and one of the villains—this feels unresolved.
A lot of time spent on the initial onset of the plague. Not enough on the actual aftermath.

Good!
This was a fun quick read. The idea is great, but the execution needs work.
I enjoyed most of the characters and the plot. There were several different perspectives and types of people who had to confront exiting problems - it makes you consider how you might react in a situation like this. For the most part, the characters were relatable. What I think I interpreted as the timeline being fast paced: definitely reminded me of another viral spread from recent years 🤭 Definitely grains of truth here!
The story seems to take place today until very close to the end, which disrupted the flow of the book and the believability of the story. The timelines of a confusing and seems to shift too often.
There are distracting errors with spelling, grammar, and punctuation, including character names in various chapters.

YPP-234: The New Plague
Sci-Fi
Jacqueline Druga
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Jacqueline Druga has become one of my favourite authors this year and I really enjoyed reading this book.
The pacing was good and while there wasn't a need for lots of world building, places and environments were described well and I could imagine them easily.
The characters were great. They were all relatable in their own ways and I liked the different POVs. I would've liked more from Katie though, considering she was patient zero/the weapon.
The ending was nice. While I'd like to see what happens next, it was left on a hopeful and almost positive note.
The only thing that let this book down for me was the editing.

I would have given it maybe a 3 or so, but unfortunately it was riddled with typos and grammatical errors, enough so that I’d imagine it never saw a proofreader or editor at all.
Errors include things such as:
・Misspelled character names (Alek written as Alex, this mistake separated by only one line)
・Sometimes missing end-quote marks, sometimes mistakenly written with single-quote marks to close speech when opened with double-quote marks.
・What look like autocorrect mistakes (“defiantly” instead of “definitely”, etc.)
・Punctuation errors (eg. question mark at the end of a sentence that clearly should have been a period—something as simple as “he said”), dropped punctuation, etc.
I know that this isn’t just a problem with this particular book either, as I’ve tried reading other books from this writer and run into the same issue.

A great story plot and characters.
The four star was given mainly because of formatting and chapter headings of the e-book, and a few grammatical issues. I enjoyed the characters even though at times it was difficult to connect and keep track of all the members within the multiple family units, travel and locations. I enjoyed the story and especially liked the ending quote by Ronald Reagan. A realistic and positive thought, applicable to each of us in today's troublesome social issues of a divided society in the USA, and the world-wide turmoil and unrest.

Wow, not just another end of world, a must read!!!
The cover of this book got attention so I read the reviews because so many end of days books now are zombie filled or just kind of ridiculous. This book however was absolutely amazing and everyone of the reviews are correct, this is truly a terrifying event that could happened in current times. The strength and emotions of the characters was amazing and I couldn't put the book down and read it in 1 day..

A totally freaky possibility
The best (((and worst))) thing about Jacqueline Druga's books is how REAL they are. Even crazy, far out there people from seemingly impossible places (((like Ellen and Frank from Beginnings))) seem SO REAL. This book especially felt so real and so POSSIBLE. SCARY STUFF.
I would recommend this book for anyone over 16. There's no intimacy, mild language and mild violence but, hello??? It's an end of the world plague!!! ;-)

I think I approached this book with the wrong attitude. I was after a zombie/apocalypse book and although this was very good, it felt like it was lacking something. The writing is fantastic and she does really well at hitting your heart strings! But I wanted to see more of the plague and less of the people trying to solve it.
It's very well written and based off the plague correctly. There are some good characters and the story is great, which is why I've given it 4 stars, you can't fault her as an author.

I found this an enjoyable read and while there was some poor editing it did not greatly impact the flow. It seems you just have to accept some editing issues with this author. The plot is based on some interesting characters and those characters (and some institutions) making good, poor, questionable and bad decisions in various combinations. I also found myself feeling that it was all kind of plausible even if I did shake my head at some decisions (but, hey, people make poor decisions in the real world too).
One thing that particularly struck me was the scientist who created the virus. It would be easy to think various things about him at various points in the book (and many of the other characters do). In the end I was left feeling sorry for him because I think perhaps his world ended and then, perhaps, he subconsciously just wanted the world to end too.
In essence a world comes tumbling down out of one man's grief. Maybe I'm over thinking things but feeling that was enough for me.

As often happens with this writer, my rating is 3 instead of 4 due to the lack of editing. Either take some grammar courses or pay someone who has the skills to edit your books. The errors are varied and frequent, making reading a bit slower as your brain goes “Wait, woman? I thought there were three. Oh, there were. Just another error.” (Example is not specific to this book but to the entire collection that included it (Sick).)

Jacqueline Druga has done it again!
As always, Ms Druga has produced a thoughful, exciting and well researched novel. I never miss one.
Jacqueline, if you ever need a free researcher or copy reader please reach out. I am a Steeltown girl who is now retired at my B&B on the Mon in Greene County.

I love everything of the authors I’ve read. This one truly scared me. It has the it could really happen vibe. A virus developed to kill, released by the madman who made it. And how it tears through the country. I was sad when it ended. Wonderful characters. Tears, humor and anger are the emotions you will feel. Grab and read.

This is one of Jacqueline Drug's BEST yet!
Since reading the first book, I have been hooked!
Never thought I would enjoy end of the world books
But Jacqueline Drugs always seems to end on a hopeful note. I have now read 9 of her books (in a
Row) Jam an avid reader and I believe her series
about "the end" are the very best. I really recommend
it!

Great read! I was sorry to see it end, this would make a great series and heck even a movie or television show!
Really great characters and it wasn't boring at all, the author doesn't get wrapped up in science and technical jargon that bores the reader to no end...which is a huge plus! I enjoyed it!

Good work!
This is a good story and told well. I don't know what else Ms. Druga has written but I'll be looking for more. And Ms. Druga if you send me a copy I'll be happy to catch the spelling that Spell Check leads you into before it's published. And thank you so much for introducing me to every character in this story!

Meh run of the mill with no scientific reason or explanation
Characters were flat and forgettable. Limited description of the environment focused on a small section of the USA. If you're a hard-core end of the world person then sure otherwise find something else to read where you actually care about the characters.

Clap-trap
God what can I say , this is one of the worse novels I've read in a long time, very amateurishly written, disjointed nonsense as if the author had read several apocalyptic books and taken ideas from each and tried to join them up to make a story. 'The new plague' definitely not a new idea.

Scary story because it relates to what's going on in today's world.
When you read this story it certainly makes you think about what can and did happen as regards the covid pandemic that was exceptionally mild compared to the plot line. It makes you want to make sure you have your bug-out bag ready.

Third-Grade Sentence Structure!
I found the title, cover art and premise of this book beguiling. The author's bio promised a literate read. Imagine, then, my shock on finding the sentence structure and syntax generally to be appalling! The quality of writing is on par with a third I grade class essay. Stay away from this wannabe novel, and get yourself a *real* book!

well developed, tense narrative
As usual Druga develops a tantalizing story with quality characters. I didn’t like getting to know characters who then died. Some characters I liked better than others. Most characters I felt could have been better developed. I didn’t feel their feelings very much. Overall a really good story.
