It could happen tomorrow...
A cataclysmic event. An army of "The Changed."
Can one teen really survive on her own?
Desperate to find out what happened and to avoid the Changed, Alex meets up with Tom---a young army veteran---and Ellie, a young girl whose grandfather was killed by the electromagnetic pulse.
This improvised family will have to use every ounce of courage they have just to survive.
I got the opportunity to meet Ilsa Bick at ALA this year and she is a super nice lady. I got a signed copy of this book so I was a happy girl.
The book started off great. I was all into it and it was going strong. Somewhere about halfway, it just kinda lost it's appeal. I can't really put my finger on what exactly it was. About that point Alex loses Tom and Ellie and moves in with a different group of people and I think that's about when I didn't care anymore.
