poppycasgabs 's review for:
The Hunt
by Andrew Fukuda
[2021 edit: I edited my review because it was written in 2013 and had a ton of typos]
Think Hunger Games, but with vampires.
Gene is a teenage boy passing as a vampire. His father got bitten and left for the desert to keep himself from harming Gene. Now alone, Gene must continue to keep his identity a secret, or he will be eaten alive. He can't sweat, cry, laugh, or even sleep during class. Because those are dead giveaways that he's not "normal".
Every 10 years, there is a hunt when they release hepers (humans) into the desert and have people (vampires) chase them down to eat them. There is a lottery and the people chosen are lucky because they get to enjoy being part of the hunt. But when Gene gets chosen, keeping his secret has never been harder.
I thought this book series was amazing and I loved it. What's not to love about a dystopian series with vampires? It's like a zombie apocalypse, but with vampires and told from the POV of one of the only survivors living among the things that would kill him if they had the chance. Not to mention there's a major plot twist in every book that makes you rethink everything you know about the series. If you love futuristic books, vampires, and The Hunger Games, this is the book for you.
