The World We Live In by

This weekend, I re-read the Life as We Knew It series. I enjoyed reading them again, and couldn’t put them down. The reason I re-read them was because the third book in the series, This World We Live In, came out, and I forgot what happened in the two books before that. I would recommend the Life As We Knew It series for 13 year-olds and up. Out of five stars, I would give the whole series a 4.
 
The book I just currently finished is called The Girl Who Fell from the Sky. It’s a book about a girl named Rachel. Rachel was in a terrible accent with her mom, sister, and brother. She was the only one that survived. Rachel then goes to live with her strict grandmother, and tries to fit in at school. All of Rachel’s classmates are either black or white. She is light brown and it’s hard for her to fit in. The Girl Who Fell From the Sky is an amazing book and one of my favorites. I would give it 4 ½ stars!
 
Keep on reading!
