In the blink of an eye, everyone disappears. Gone. Except for the young. There are teens, but not one single adult. 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...
What i like about this book is that its very action packed and gruesome. Just because the cover of the book has a boy and a girl on it, does not make it a stupid dumb romance novel. in all but the last 2 books there is very and i mean very few romance in it. It keeps you intrigued and there are several plot twists. It may be long about the length of a Twilight or Harry Potter novel but its worth so many pages! This novel tells the story of how one day in a small Californian town everyone 15 and over mysteriously disappears. But that's not all. The town becomes surrounded by a strange spherical barrier, no one gets in or out. And stranger still, the children and teenagers left behind are discovering that some of them have weird mutant powers. And that snakes can fly. And coyotes can talk. In a world gone mad, power and leadership are up for the picking. In a world run by children, power belongs to the bullies, the sadists, or the mutants.
What i didn't like about the book was little. It kind of flips back and forth on which who it talks about. for example, some of the story will start with Sam and Astrid in one side of the FAYZ, but then a few pages later the story breaks with them and starts to talk about Lana and her dog and her side of things. but eventually Lana meets Sam and Astrid and helps out with everything that is going on.
This is the first book of the six book series. Each book has the same characters but also introduces new characters with plot twists for everyone. I don't want to be a spoiler so i recommend this book to anyone who loves action, dystopian worlds, and "superheroes".
WTF it doesn't stand for what you think, it stands for WHAT/WHERE's THE FOOD (you'll understand where i got that once you read the second book.)
