This book is written to show the same crisis with the moon from the vantage point of a big city. I was disappointed in the characters, which were hard to get to know and I thought, kind of stupid for being inner city kids. It did show the struggles they went through to find food but they weren't very creative and were starving instead of breaking down empty apartment doors to look for food?? That didn't make sense to me. <BR/>As I found this book so disappointing I gave it 2 1/2 *'s.La-lahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473103582281132872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8803391217305130189.post-66184014474949157302008-06-16T18:44:00.000-05:002008-06-16T18:44:00.000-05:00The powerful images and wrenching tragedies will h...The powerful images and wrenching tragedies will haunt readers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8803391217305130189.post-64209186604489050132008-06-16T18:42:00.000-05:002008-06-16T18:42:00.000-05:00...I was excited to find out about this companion ......I was excited to find out about this companion book to Life As We Knew It, but when I finally sat down to read it I was sorely disappointed. While the idea to show an urban viewpoint of the moon disaster was a good one, the main character, Alex, was so unbelievably stupid, infuriatingly unresourceful, and intensely unlikable that I didn't care if he lived or died. I highly recommend reading LAWKI, but I would skip this one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
