Gone. Parents, teen siblings and friends, grandparents. They are all gone, and you have no idea if they are coming back or where they went. All you know is this purple storm showed up out of nowhere and they disappeared! No more bed times, no groundings, no parents harping on you to do your homework or get a job, but also no one to tuck you in at night, clean up for you. Purple is a brilliantly written tale of just that, family members and strangers gone missing and the story of four unlikely teenagers who become friends, who unbeknownst to them are chosen for something greater. The characters are colorful and fun. They're fears are real. But there is a deeper connection between all who they encounter. All of the sudden they are thrown into a teenage-adulthood and struggling to not only find themselves but survive. I laughed, cried, gasped, and found myself holding my breath at times. The fate of the world is literally on these young teens' shoulders! My favorite character was Ping. She had me cracking up, and I was so happy that she was able to play an important part in the story.Grab your copy of Purple, go on...GO! You will not be disappointed, whether you are a pre-teen, teen, YA, or adult, male or female. Purple has just that right mix for every reader!
