Hmmm...Skin-head gang = aliens?

This book is so awesome, words cannot describe this. I read it when I was in sixth grade and it was so intresting. I read it every study hall at the end of the day for 5 months! I could not put it down! Here is basically what it is about:A loser named Quentin starts a Skin-Head gang where they are all goth and have to get certain tatooes and piercings. Soon Matt, Luke's younger brother becomes adapted and a member of the Skin-Head gang. Soon after that, Quentin, an unknown alien/extratrestrial gets mind control of Luke and Mandy, and they always disappear betweeen 10 pm and 2 am. But when they come back, they do not remember a thing. They soon talk it over and things start adding up. Quentin spyes on them in a library and everything goes wacky...trust me it is not a playful alien book...it is realistic, and probably for ages 14+...i mean it it is so awesome...get it now. Cheers to Rodman Philbrick!

Awesome

"Abduction" is about a boy and a girl who find that they have no idea what is happenng to them every night between 10pm and 2am. The boy, Luke, is convinced it is aliens, but Mandy refuses to listen. When the finally discover exactly what it is, neither of them are prepared. This book totally rocks! I read it on a plane after I went on vacation and I couldn't put it down. My dad was trying to point out all sorts of cool sights from the window, but I couldn't pull myself away from the book. If you don't read this, you're really missing something awesome!
