Mrs. Cranshaw

Fantastic book for teens. One minute you are sitting in class with your fellow classmates and then the next... all of the adults have disappeared! It appears that everyone over the age of 15 has disappeared. At first, everyone enjoys the idea of no adults around, but soon they discover that they need rules to govern themselves and who will become the leader. Some of the children possess powers and they have no idea how they got them or to what extent they need to use or control their new gifts. Could not put the book down and read it in one night.

They have already made a movie from this book. I prefer to read the story before I ever see the movie. So far, it is quite interesting and I can see high schoolers getting into the drama of the novel. There are sequels as well, so this should be quite a reading ride.
