The girl with 500 Middle Names

• The first book I read is The Girl with 500 Middle Names. This book talks about every day problems. In this case it is about sweaters and schools. The main character Janie goes to Clyde Elementary school were everything is broken and she doesn’t learn. So her mom starts knitting sweaters and does perfect but gets a brick wall thrown in her face. See how Janie helps. Read!!!

Among the Hidden

• Among the Hidden is one of the most exciting books I have ever read! This book talks about a population law saying you can only have two kids. And one shadow child is cooped up in his house all day his name is Luke. Until he gets the nerve to go outside and meet another shadow. This one just happens to be a girl! This is no ordinary girl she has spunk, and she is starting a rally for all shadows. I recommend this book to anyone who likes adventure.

Among the Imposters

• Among the Imposters is the sequel to Among the Hidden. This is after Luke’s friend Jen died. He leaves his family to go to a Baron school for boys. He gets a fake I.D. He is not fitting in very well. His new name is Lee. He sees a door out of the school. And he notices that his school has no windows. He finds out he is not the only third child there. There are many others but one is an imposter. Jason. This is a great book read it , it is amazing.

Among the Betrayed

• Among the Betrayed is the third sequel to Among the Hidden. I think this is a very good book because a girl named Nina a third child who think she has been betrayed is captured by the Population Police and beaten. She was spared her life by a mission she had to do for the Population

police. She has to betray her cellmates. And she doesn’t want to betray anyone she has just been betrayed. But she frees herself and her cellmates and they run to the Baron boy school. And Nina gets caught. To find out what happens read Among the Betrayed.
