Another story about the end of the world as we know it. Its actually an entertaining story with enough twists and turns to keep you guessing ( )

Another book I just could not get into. The writing and plot premise is OK but the storyline came across as a bit simplistic without any real depth

I received a free copy of this ebook in exchange for an honest review.

This book was a bit of a let-down to me, honestly. I hope the sequel will be better. I didn't really like any of the characters, except poor Brody who was five and stuck with two idiot teen women. Poor kid. Dani is suspicious of everyone yet naive as hell about hot guys. Her friend Kit is a blabbermouth who likes to fix herself up with makeup. Yes, it's a TENT CITY, but golly gee, gotta look hawt for the guys! This is why I rarely read YA anymore. Just sayin'.

The leader of the tent city is a major a-hole. But he's hot. The oh-so-obvious spy is hot also. I want to go to this place! It must be like an Abercrombie and Fitch catalogue :D

For now I'll look out for the sequel, because there is a decent story in there. ( )

I LOVE this book! Great Dystopian novel and I really could NOT put it down once I got going. Here is the blurb from Goodreads.............

After a devastating plague, introverted 17-year-old Dani Campbell and her family find themselves living in a very different America, one run by a cult-like leader, who forces children to move to "safety camps" designed to protect the human race. Encouraged to flee by her parents, Dani and her five-year-old brother seek refuge in the Black Hills of South Dakota. On the run with danger around every corner, Dani must fight to ensure their survival in this new world while trying to unmask the mystery of how it all came to be.

Now.... there is so much more you need to know. This a story of a girl, Dani, on the run with her best friend Kit and her younger brother Brody. They flee when they are warned by Dani's parents that all kids their ages would be sent to "safety camps". They get the warning from their uncle Randy, who happens to work for the new government that is led by a manipulating religious zealot. So, the kids flee, leaving their families behind, to a family owned cabin which turns out to already be inhabited by other teenagers and young adults, which is called Tent City. The leader of this Tent City is Bentley. He is one of the two lead males in this stories love triangle. The other is Jack, who Dani, Kit, and Brody actually run into on their travels to Tent City and then they are reunited once again once they are living in Tent City with the others. All the while Dani truly finds herself and becomes a bit of a warrior by the books end, due to the trials and tribulations she endures when she finds herself responsible for taking care of her younger brother and her best friend, out on the run in the wilderness of South Dakota. She really does become a fierce force to be reckoned with. All of this, while growing to like the two boys (Jack & Bentley), who are distinctly different in their own way and similar in others. She later finds out some of their secrets, BUT, I am not saying...you have to read it for yourself! :)). She learns that they are both amazing and has no idea what to do about it and I truly do not know which I would choose either.... which makes me love this story even more!The ending wraps up nicely, not leaving you tortured with a crazy cliffhanger that drives you nuts until the next book comes out.... do not get me wrong.... there are still lots of What Ifs and questions that I need answered, so I CANNOT wait to read the sequel which is coming out soon...... so until then.... I will probably read this book once more! Lovers of YA/NA, Paranormal, Dystopian, Apocalyptic.... you will need to read this one! Kelly Van Hull is an amazing Indie Author and I cannot wait to see what she brings next! ( )
