Can anyone help out?

[Stella Leanna]

My friend Mel's asking: (I'm just going to quote her)

what is this book?
It's about a girl and people from the world have all disappeared except for a select few that seem to be entirely useless for anypurpose in staying behind. The girls boyfriend,another girl,boy and a smart pudgey boy. The girl was pregnant and they had decided to have an abortion(prior to everyone disappearing) but when she was in the room, she could not do it and she walked out and went home without telling her boyfriend that she didn't do it. She goes home falls asleep and wakes up to find all but these people gone.it ends with her meeting her omnipresent daugther explaining the positives of her not being aborted and how it affected the world. Yes the book does sound dire but that's beside the point and before someone mentions it no its not girlfriend in a coma by that god awful Coupland

Stephen King's "The Stand"

Seconded...

 

[MonkeyCatcher]

Although this description draws a few parallels with The Stand, I don't think that it is. For one there are a lot more memorable characters than the ones listed, and the main character is male, isn't he? Plus, the people don't 'dissappear', they get killed off by Capt. Trips.

I agree with MonkeyCatcher. It sounds like the beginning of the Stand though... ::shrug:: But that's only a small (tiny tiny) part of the whole story. And it's not so much disappearing as it is dying
