Gone by Michael Grant

The Gone series, written by Michael Grant, is a very interesting yet intense read. The author designs a society where the parents are removed from a town and put outside of a bubble. In the bubble however, only the children under 18 are left. The society without parents turns out to be unorganized and violent. People turn against each other and create weapons to have superior authority, even those of young ages. The descriptions that the author gives puts the readers in the different perspectives of each character. Throughout my time reading the series, I never wanted to put it down because something new was always happening and I didn’t want to leave on a cliffhanger. Overall, I really enjoyed this book, but would recommend for eighth grade and up.
