 Armani Curtis is about to turn ten and was going to have an awesome birthday party with all of her friends when her family heard about the strong hurricane known as Katrina. Armani's parents decide that only the family will celebrate her birthday, after the party Katrina comes and the ten year old must be brave as her world is turned upside down.

In this book I loved how when a character dies they are still a part of the story. There was nothing to dislike in this book. One thing that I thought was unique is how Armani's uncle changed from the beginning to the end. Something that stands out in this book is Armani's heart. This is like no other book that I have read before, its so original and you can't put it down!

I would recommend this book to anyone. looking for a good read

 Kyle and his family were having a wonderful vacation on the Oregon coast until the night when Kyle was babysitting his little sister, BeeBee, and an earthquake hits the coast. Fires broke out in the hotel and as Kyle gets his sister out of the building he remembers a sign on the beach that said to get as inland/high as possible, Tsunamis' tend to come after earthquakes.

There are many things to like about this book but liked the development of the story best. I found that there's nothing to dislike about this book. One thing that makes this book unique is the connection between Kyle and a bully. Something that stands out in this book is how Kyle stands up for BeeBee. This book is like the I Survived series because a disaster strikes and people have to escape it.

I would recommend this book to people who enjoy the I Survived series since they are similar.

This book is about kids from a high school putting on a play.

I loved everything about this book I didn't dislike anything. What makes this book unique is that there is a play about the kids doing a play. Something that stands out in this book is how many people start liking each other but some people turn out to be gay. This is nothing like any other books I've read.

I would recommend this book to younger kids because it is an easy to read book and it's really interesting.

This book is about a young girl who was kidnapped but she couldn't do anything about it because she was blind.

I liked how mysterious this book was. I didn't like how it would go back and forth in the middle of a conversation. This is not like any other books I've read.

I would recommend this books to young adults because it is a good book for older kids.
