Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer


Life as we knew it gives a very interesting point of view of a post-apocalyptic world.

The story is told by a 16 year old girls point of view in a diary format. Normally diary form drives me mad... but in this instance it works extremely well. You get a lot of detailed info about her, her family, feelings and fears.

This book is a good read for all. The unique premise will capture your attention and keep you entertained. This book is quite bleak yet underneath all that you find what really matters and it isn't modern conveniences.

I can't wait to read the sequel. Go out and buy this book or get it from your local library, it is worth the read!


Grade: A
