A review by catherine_mack
Gone by Michael Grant

3.0

I finally got around to reading this book which was quite popular with our students a couple of years back. I was expecting gritty high action/dystopia similar to The Hunger Games series but was not expecting the high level of graphic violence especially involving young children. I suppose this will appeal to some readers, and while I’d like to know what happens to the main characters, there is more than enough graphic violence in the real world right now; I don’t want to deal with more in my reading.
