This is a great read not only for teens but for adults as well that like to discuss books with their teens. The premise of a third world war is a subtle subplot. It shows kids what will be important and what won't in the event of a disaster of any kind. There are some controversial topics (anorexia, incest,) that are important for young people that are handled in a very low key non threatening way that will draw the reader in. I look forward to reading more from this author.
