Grasshopper Jungle by Andrew Smith

WOW…This book made me say wow after I finished reading it.  The book takes place in the small town of Ealing, Iowa.  Austin and his best friend Robby have accidentally released an army of unstoppable soldiers.  They are hungry, six feet tall praying mantises that want to do two things: eat and mate.  No one knows that it is the end of the world.  Grasshopper Jungle is funny, complex, intense, and interesting book following Austin as he experiments trying to figure out what he is, and how he plans on saving the world.  This book is a good read for people who want a book that will keep them up all night.
