Among the Hidden

Our next book that we will be reading is Among the Hidden, by Margaret Peterson Haddix. This is the first book in a series of 6 books. The plot takes place in a country that has initiated a population law due to overpopulation and food shortages. It is illegal to have more than 2 children. Among the Hidden introduces us to a "shadow child" named Luke.

This book should be available at your local libraries. Let's try to read it by October 6th. That gives us about 2 1/2 weeks. Let us know if you have a book in mind that you would like to suggest for next time!

Happy Reading!

I just wanted to comment that I just finished reading this book and it was great! If you haven't picked it up for this months discussion yet, you should!

I'm glad you liked it! Are you going to read the other ones?

There are other ones?! This is music to my ears! I told Sean all about the book and then I told him the ending and we both kept saying, "there has got to be a book two"! I am going to go to the library TODAY!

He he! That's funny...there are like 4 or 5 more books!!!! I think I've read them all but the last two. Has Sean read Eclipse yet? Gianna said she's going to eat up at Sundance next week for Thomas' bday!
