review 1: I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my review. I must say that I really loved this book and hope there will be more to come like this! The characters are interesting and the story is great, and not what I expected (that's a good thing!). The idea of children coming together to create a "normal" after all the adults have died by some mysterious plague works (contrary to what other reviewers have said). Even the character of Catherine works, although the Christian ideas are definitely there in force, I didn't find it offensive. A great book for young adults/teens. Will definitely read more by Mr. Hill when they come out!
review 2: A plague has swept the nation (and possible world) killing everyone eighteen years of age and older. T
... morehe kids that are left behind are determined to man up and keep on living as best as they can. Jimmy, a seventeen year old, is a council member of a town called “Independents” and his soul goal is to provide for the children under him and beat the plague that is knocking at his door. When his brother Hunter returns to town with a small girl named Catherine, he realizes that his prayers may be answered. Although no one knows how, Catherine has the ability to heal making her a poplar person in the town. But Independents isn’t the only town that wants Catherine for her healing powers. I am just going to be honest and say that I really liked “Sudden Independents.” It has a little bit of something that everyone could enjoy and relate to: family trouble, spats, jealousy, violence, fast cars/motorcycles, action, forgiveness, danger, hatred, and love. And you will find that because of all of these categories are present; you will be wrapped up into the story line almost immediately. I kept promising myself that I would finish a chapter and then go do something constructive other than reading and I just couldn’t do it. I had to know what was going to happen next. Hill makes you really feel for his characters and you want the absolute best for them, you want them to strive to survive. I will say that this book may not be some people’s “cup of tea” but it was certainly mine. less
