Series Review: 'The Thousandth Floor' by Katharine McGee

4.75 stars for the entire series

Imagine, if you can, all the glitz and glamour and secrets of ‘Gossip Girl’ set 100 years into the future, where the entirety of Manhattan exists in an enormous thousand-floor skyscraper and technology has advanced beyond your wildest dreams.  Add a murder mystery and high school drama to this, and you have Katharine McGee’s expertly thought-out and executed thriller trilogy.

We follow the same characters from 'The Thousandth Floor' to ‘The Dazzling Heights’ and ‘The Towering Sky’ – though the murder victim and the motives change.  In each sequel, McGee adds more details of her vision of the Earth in 2118 and 2119.

This series is LGBTQ+ friendly futuristic fiction recommended for upper-YA readers.
