Read this online when Harper Teen offered it free. This was the most compelling book that I have ever read. I read almost the whole book in less than 24 hours. It sucked me in and would not turn loose. This book is not for the faint of heart. It is so vivid that I had nightmares about it while reading it. This would make an awesome movie. It is listed as a YA but it is so much more. Just imagine what it would be like to be sitting in a classroom listening to your teacher drone on and on and then suddenly poof! no teacher. In fact no one over 15 in your whole town. Can you imagine the fear, the panic , as the reality of this is faced by the 13 and 14 year olds that are left in charge. Not only that, several of them have discovered that they have developed some strange and scary abilities. A five star book all the way.
