LookBooks- Monument 14

This is my first book review, which I call LookBooks. This week's book is Monument 14, by Emmy Laybourne. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It's defiantly action-packed with plenty of twists and turns.


Summary:
    High-schooler, Dean, is in for a wild ride,when, on a normal day in the year 2024, a giant hail storm hits his small Colorado town. Luckily, him and 5 other high-schoolers, 2 middle school students, and 6 little kids find shelter-in a large chain superstore. After other catastrophes  hit the town, like an earthquake and a hazardous chemical spill, the kids must band together, no matter what happens.

Thoughts:
   This book was most defiantly a page turner. It was full of action and unbelievable circumstances that we are not used to. The kids go through many different obstacles inside their own little world, from picking a "team leader" to helping each other through personal challenges. This book will most likely leave you with a mixture of happiness, unbelievability, and hope.

Rating:
    4 1/2 stars

Would you read Monument 14?
