12yo Arjun has just moved to a new school, hoping to make new friends and join the basketball team. His new school is sponsored by OmniBoost, which provides food in the cafeteria and energy drinks as well as new gym equipment, uniforms, and tech. It seems wonderful at first, but then Arjun starts feeling ill and his teammates become sluggish. Arjun begins to research OmniBoost and discovers their energy boost claims may be false.
A fast, if predictable read, this book will appeal to teens' sense of justice and their desire to be heard. Arjun is Indian and his friend, Demar, may be black, but it never specified.
