Didn't HAVE to Read It, But....

Last year I read Found and really, really enjoyed it.  I had tried to read Sent a few times and just couldn't get into it at all.  I was so determined to get through it, though, I finally bought the audio.  It was just super confusing for me.  Way too much sci-fi and life in the 1400s in England really isn't my cup of tea, so I wasn't much interested in the story, either.  Turns out that this is the story of the Princes in the Tower, which I didn't know anything about until I read this book, so I guess I learned something after all.  Will I continue the series.  Not sure.  I won't pay for it though.

Once again...just because you HAVE to read something, doesn't mean you won't enjoy it!

So I agreed to read Found by Haddix for the Battle of the Books at the Sewickley Library. It is the first one in her Missing series. I'm not sure why I wasn't excited to read it. I read and loved Uprising and I really, really liked Claim to Fame. So now that I think about it, I am not surprised that I loved this book and can't wait to read the others in the series.

Jonah and his friend Chip are adopted and they have just started getting weird letters in the mail that say, "You are one of the missing" and "Beware they are coming for you" so that starts them on a truly bizarre, sci-fi journey to find out just what is really going on here.

Great book and great series!
