Another fantastic read by an amazing author Amanda Hocking. Couldn't stop reading from the very first page until the ending. Loved all of the wonderfully developed characters and the pace of this book was just perfect. Already eagerly awaiting the next publication by the super talented Ms. Hocking.

Dont get me wrong, i love amanda hocking, i live in MN so i can relate to the settings of alot of her books, but this story was, creepy. When they say its for 16+, theyre not kidding. Im 13 and love her other books, so i picked it up for a buck. It is a really good story and plot, but the setting and how freaking graphic it is just freaks me out.

I have found a new author to watch! Even though the books is aimed at young adults, this old adult enjoyed it too!
Lets hope Amanda writes the sequel soon.

I needed to keep reading more and more, even when I took a break I was anxious to come back to it. You just cant go wrong with the book. It has alk the elements you need in so little time.

Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.In a word this book is phenomenal! Hollowland introduces the best and most kick ass female heroine I have ever read. Remy is a nineteen year old girl taking on the world of really smart zombies, marauders, crazy cult enthusiasts, lions, love, and saving the world. It does have some adult themes that these kids are dealing with but thats why I love it. Teens and kids even younger deal with adult situations theses days. Even though its not zombies and saving the world for them. I think Remy translates to all situations if someone is looking for or needs inspiration to stand strong. All I can say is that Remy and her gang of survivors (including Ripley the lion) are entertaining, hilarious, characters that will leave you salivating for a sequel and wanting to kick a little butt yourself.

Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.Breaking from her fantasy and vampire YA genre settings, the author gives us a story set in post-apocalyptic times; when people infected with a type of virus that simulates the effects of the movie style zombies have overrun the world.
Remy, a girl looking for her brother, meets up with some new people and has to fight her way to him on a long trip north.
Remy is the type of person that others gravitate to, either for protection or for direction. She pulls no punches and fights like a wildcat. Readers of Laurel K. Hamilton's Amanda Blake series will instantly recognize a kindred spirit in Remy, although she doesn't fall in bed with every male character like Blake does.
The book is well paced and will definitely run the scale of your emotions. I can only hope a sequel is coming soon, as this book ends with a huge opening for one.

I read a little of it, skipped ahead and read a little more.....a book for kids, not for adults. (And I read a lot of paranormal stuff.)
