Life As We Knew It

My book report is on Life as We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer. She has over 45 books, three of which are sequels to this book. This is the other books in its series:

The Dead and the Gone

This World We Live In
(http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6393972-this-world-we-live-in)

The Shade of the Moon 

These three books are the continuation of the one I’m reviewing from different points of view/ continuation of this. She also has other books, but they range from children picture books to young adult. Life as We Knew It is about a family trying to survive a crisis after an asteroid hit the moon. 

The book is a 16 year old girl named Miranda Evans. Just a regular teenager in a small town in Pennsylvania. Her life is normal, she has an older and younger brother named Matt and Johnny and her mother. She also has regular teenage problems like her two friends who like her but hate each other. But once an asteroid hits the moon it all turns to chaos; people start racing to stores to get as much supplies as possible. The world Miranda knew turns upside down. Next thing she knows schools, stores, and even restaurants are closing. This is a book that truly lives up to the survival nature as Miranda is stuck through bitter winters, starving days, natural disasters, and more. One thing truly is in the mind: How will she survive?

I recommend this book, especially to people who love survival type books. It is intriguing with the detail and the drama in every page making it a true masterpiece. It truly made me worried that this will actually happen and I wanted to go to the store and grab all the canned goods I could find! So what are you waiting for? Go read the book!
