Fake ID (Hunted)

I ordered this as a used book in supposedly very good condition because I had read this series last year and enjoyed them, but when I received my copy the outside cover was great, but on the top of the book there were highlighter marks. When I flipped through the book the pages were okay other than the occasional marking on the pages. I love the book but not the quality of the book's condition. I wouldn't buy from the seller again.

My son needed a book to read for his 8th grade AP English Class. The teacher gave him a list and this book was on it. We read the description and it sounded very interesting so we ordered it. My son read it and he couldn't put it down. This is a book for young teenagers, it is very suspenseful, interesting, and just an overall great book.

This is a great book. It had me hooked from the very beginning. It is a book that you don't want to put down. The author does a great job of taking you along with the character, while keeping you on the edge of your seat to the very end.Georgia

Bought this for my daughter to read for school. Worked out perfectly.

The book Fake ID by Walter Sorrells is a great book about a teenage girl who's mom suddenly goes missing on her sixteenth birthday. She now has to find her mother; find out why they were always running and moving to different cities. The city that Chastity and her mother now are living in is High Hopes, Alabama.. Her and her mother change there ID's like they do whenever they move to a different city. Chastity, if that is even her real name asks her mom who her dad is, why they are always moving and why she can never listen to music and sing songs like she loves to do. There is all these questions and Chastity can't find any answers until her mom goes missing and she will have to figure out everything in order to find her mother. This is a very mysterious book that is non linear that will make you think and want to keep reading. I think Fake ID was a really good quick reading book that always made you wonder what was going to happen next. I like mystery books like this one because it is fun to read. I am a person that likes to read but I don't read a lot because I have to find a book that I'm interested in. I like books that can kinda be realistic and have to do with someone my age; that I can relate to. I thought this book was awesome. Chastity is the main character of the book. She is a young sixteen year old girl who just wants to stay and make friends at her high school. Her mother which you will find a lot about in the middle of the book kept a lot of secrets from her daughter. They are really close and in the book Chastity knows that her mom didn't die and she has to find her before she has to go live somewhere else. Ben which is another character in the book is Chastity's closest friend for a long time and will help Chastity throughout the book. He is a really nice guy and is there for her when her mother goes missing. Rachel which is another character in the book is a popular cheerleader at school who Chastity doesn't like that much. Though she doesn't like her she also ends up helping Chastity find her mother,. In this story you learn that when someone you love goes missing that you will do anything in world to find them. It's sad when you lose someone but you are so happy when you get them back. When your parents don't want you to do something or don't want to talk about something they have a reason for it. Like Chastity says in the book-" Mom is weird about music. Like she won't listen to it. I mean, at all she says music is bad luck." This is how it all starts and you will find out why this is so important when you read the book Fake ID.

I just finished reading this book. It drew me in from the first chapter. Excellent read.

On one hand, this was a great book! I love this genre and I couldn't put the book down! A true page turner! An easy and fast read!! I imagine everyone who loves mysteries would enjoy reading this book! Creative and original!However, there were unfortunate distractions that totally undid the enjoyability. I've never read a book with so many flaws in continuity and character. For example, the lead character, a budding musician, distinctly has to leave her prized guitar behind in a car used to kidnap her. Yet, her guitar is with her when next she needs it. Impossible. Then, in one paragraph, she is riding in a convertible Mustang and on the same page, just a couple of paragraphs later, the same Mustang is said to have a "sun roof." Again, impossible. In another section, a teacher tackles the lead character in the school library in order to get her to turn off her cell phone. That is implausible. Besides these and other obvious flaws, all characters except the lead are stereotypical, totally predictable, and one dimensional.At the end of the book, the bad guys survive what should have killed them. This felt like a weak, obvious gimmick to get a second book going for the character where she must face these bad guys again. Why?I don't know whether these are problems because the author has a poor editor, or because the author is cranking out books too fast to stay on top and keep the plot details tight and consistant. [On his Web site, the author says that he wrote 4 or maybe 5 books last year...he can't really remember which because he's writing so much he can't keep track.] The author obviously CAN concoct a GREAT plot (an EXCELLENT plot) and tell a great story (an AWESOME story) that keeps readers' attention. There is no excuse for the flaws.
