Yes, it may be for ‘young adults,’ but that doesn’t mean that I would pick this bitch up in a heartbeat and devour it page by page. GONE is your basic tale of anyone over the age of 14 simply disappearing, leaving only kids to rule the world… chaos, madness, and LORD OF THE FLIES-style shite ensues. Gotta love it.
While watching the trailer (which you can watch below), I could swear I’ve seen a movie with a similar premise, but honestly… couldn’t think of it. Maybe I’m losing my mind, maybe I can’t remember… anyone out there know what I’m talkin’ about?
GONE is being released by Harper Teen (but looks way more intense than most ‘teen’ novels generally do), and is aiming to hit book stores everywhere June 24th. Enjoy the trailer below, and click HERE to buy your very own copy of GONE.
