The world outside Ember Paine's window has gone mad. After a horrific virus wipes out the majority of the population, terrorists march door-to-door hunting down the survivors. When Ember's ten-year-old sister is kidnapped from their yard, she must leave the safety of her home. If she doesn't find Elizabeth before the bad men discover her gift. it could mean the end for all of them. Bravo I am not a night person and have not recently read a book that made me stay up far past my bedtime in a long time That is exactly what Lightening Strikes did for me. Every time I got to the end of a chapter the suspense was killing me to the point that I just had to continue. I fell in love with the characters quickly due to the outstanding job the author did in developing them. There was enough action in this book to keep me entertained as well as enough psychological depth to keep my mind racing to find out what happens next. I was very sad to see it end; however very excited that the author is making this a trilogy Can't wait for the next one in the series Reader Review

After surviving a deadly virus that nearly eliminated the world's population, Ember and her friends thought they found a safe place to hide from the bad men who hunt them. When the bad men appear at the white farmhouse where they've holed up for the past three months, they are forced to flee, leaving Teddy behind. Heart pounding suspense you won't be able to put down until the last page. Loved this book It moves smoothly into this book from the first book Lightning Strikes. So much suspense and emotions that you feel everything that the characters are going through. Makes you sit back and think of what life would be like IF this happens in real life. I would recommend this whole trilogy to anyone Many nights of staying up late to read, due to it being hard to put it down. There isn't a slow period in this book at all. Keeps you wanting more. Reader Review
Seventeen-year-old Ember Pain is tired of running and hiding. After a virus was released, wiping out the majority of the population, the world has become a very dangerous place. If they aren't fleeing from the bad men who hunt them, they are contending with the cannibals who want to eat them. Making a stand seems like the only option. As Ember and her friends travel to Wyoming for a final show-down with the bad men, her life becomes even more complicated. Nothing will be easy, she knows this. But she holds onto hope. It's all she has. "In this last book of the trilogy, Joni neatly ties up all of the ends to this fun, exciting series. A mixture of Stephen King and Stephanie Meyer, these books keep you turning the pages late into the night. Each chapter ends with a bang and even though you know you should shut off the light, you find yourself reading "just a little bit more". - Reader Review

While in no way supporting the systemic injustices and disparities of mass incarceration, Gifts from the Dark: Learning from the Incarceration Experience argues that we have much to learn from those who have been and are in prison. Schwartz and Chaney profile the contributions of literary giants, social activists, entrepreneurs, and other talented individuals who, despite the disorienting dilemma of incarceration, are models of adult transformative learning that positively impact the world. The authors interweave narratives with both qualitative and quantitative research references to analyze the role of solitude, writing, non-verbal communication; race and gender; physical exercise; education; technology; family and parenting; and the need to “give back” that precipitate transformative learning. The prison cell becomes a counterspace of metamorphosis. In focusing upon how men and women have chosen the worst moments of their lives as a baseline not to define, but to refine themselves, Gifts from the Dark promises to forever alter the limited mindset of incarceration as a solely one-dimensional, deficit event.
