This book is full of major whit, adventure, and a total joy to read...And its about an alien invasion!?! Iva-Marie knows how to make an alien invasion fun and make you want to join in on the action!Our heros are Leo (the burnout), Teena (the most popular girl in school), Evan (the preachers son), and Sarabeth (loner/ straight a student). After a prank by Teena the four are locked in the wine cellar at the most talked about party of the year. Little did they know that Teena's prank would end up saving their lives and leaving them the only ones to defend their little town from an alien invasion.Right from the get go there is this amazing tone to the book. Almost a Breakfast Club vibe, who the most unlikeliest of people come together for a united cause. The characters are their steryotypes and so much more. I love that Iva-Marie gives each character depth and you realize that they all bring something important to the table. Another thing I loved most was the banter between them all. At times they had me right out laughing, which is always a good thing but something I totally did not expect when I thought Alien Invasion. LOLOver all this book is light hearted and a major hoot to read! I enjoyed it very much and I can not wait to see what the Ive-marie puts out next.
