Sometimes it's a place where the saved take refuge.

It is frightening to think your world can change in an instant.
A riveting and realistic story which will have you turning the pages with no thought for leaving the story. It's a fascinating and heartwarming story.
You must definitely read this one.

I saw this on someone's wishlist, now who was it ...? I'm sure it will come to me eventually.

This is another one I read in 2005 - the time has just flown past - and I loved it & the rest of the series.

When Ellie and her friends go camping, they have no idea they're leaving their old lives behind forever. Despite a less-than-tragic food shortage and a secret crush or two, everything goes as planned. But a week later, they return home to find their houses empty and their pets starving. Something has gone wrong--horribly wrong. Before long, they realize the country has been invaded, and the entire town has been captured--including their families and all their friends. Ellie and the other survivors face an impossible decision: They can flee for the mountains or surrender. Or they can fight.
