I Am Number Four
Lorien Legacies #1
by Pittacus Lore
Goodreads blurb: Nine of us came here. We look like you. We
talk like you. We live among you. But we are not you. We can do things you
dream of doing. We have powers you dream of having. We are stronger and faster
than anything you have ever seen. We are the superheroes you worship in movies
and comic books--but we are real.
Our plan was to grow, and train, and become strong, and become one, and fight them. But they found us and started hunting us first. Now all of us are running. Spending our lives in shadows, in places where no one would look, blending in. We have lived among you without you knowing.
But they know.
They caught Number One in Malaysia.
Number Two in England.
And Number Three in Kenya.
They killed them all.
I am Number Four.
I am next.

My Thoughts - 5 out of 5
Unicorns - I loved it!!!
***Borrowed the Playaway from the
local library
The
cover will lead you to believe that there is nothing exciting about this book,
but it is completely not true :)
My
son’s English teacher recommended this series to him for his AR book. This is a YA series, and this is the first
book in the series. Since my son really
struggles in reading with dyslexia, we listen to it together in the car to and
from school. He loved listening to it as
did I. This is our first time with this
author and narrator. It was easy to be
pulled into John’s story. There is tons
of action and mystery mixed in as you learn about the Loriens, Mogs, and the
events that have led to John being on Earth.
My son demanded we go to the library the minute we finished this book because
he wanted to start on the next one immediately.
I
highly recommend this series to adventure lovers especially if they are YA
level reluctant readers.
Interested in reading???
