In the blink of an eye. Everyone disappears. GONE.
Except for the young. Teens. Middle schoolers. Toddlers. But not one single adult. No teachers, no cops, no doctors, no parents. Just as suddenly, there are no phones, no internet, no television. No way to get help. And no way to figure out what's happened.
Hunger threatens. Bullies rule. A sinister creature lurks. Animals are mutating. And the teens themselves are changing, developing new talents—unimaginable, dangerous, deadly powers—that grow stronger by the day.
It's a terrifying new world. Sides are being chosen, a fight is shaping up. Townies against rich kids. Bullies against the weak. Powerful against powerless. And time is running out: On your birthday, you disappear just like everyone else...
When I first seen what the book was about I thought okay it will be like a Lord of the Flies kind of thing. Kids on there own no parents just teenagers probably up to 18, though they won't be trapped they will be able to go anywhere. Well once you get into the start of the book you find out that those things aren't true! Maybe the crazy Lord of the Flies part a little bit on how things go, but other wise no! It is a strange book not only are kids alone with no where to go no one to look to, you find out that they have powers! Weird unnatural powers, that some can't even control or they don't know about. Some kids decided to use this for good other don't! Bullies actually do try and rule. Then the animals are just another kind of scary all together!
This book certainly frightened me at some parts just to imagine some of the things that go on. What everything looks like the thoughts that go through peoples minds. If I was in anyone of those kids positions I would snap I wouldn't be able to handle it at all. This book defiantly keep me up and night and turning every page, fearing what I was going to read next but also unable from stopping myself and setting it down.
