No Safety In Numbers, by Dana Lorentz
In June of 2012 while cleaning up my office at work, I found 4 $25 gift cards from Kidsbooks. They were given to us to buy for our schools. I promptly went shopping and bought several of the teen fiction experts recommendations. So far I have read this one, 'No Safety in Numbers. It seems to be the start of a set because there is no resolution at the end, -you are left hanging and definitely want to read more. It is a fun read, with interesting and believable characters who provide intrigue into this plot-thin novel. One of the kids finds something suspicious on the mall ventilation system, alerts the cops and soon the mall is in a lock-down and no one inside knows why. There is a love affair, lots of violence, teen and adult angst resulting in a riot, escape attempts and so on. I liked it, and look forward to more. I was on Dayna Lorentz' website and there is no mention of her writing a follow-up which seems odd.
