beautifully written, if u into some scifi and typical teenage romance and slice of life, then this is the series for u, I read these series in less then 2 months.
Life as we knew itThis book was great I am so happy with the turnout at the ending and I am so excited to continue reading the rest of the series
Good, what happens to all the poor grubs after all?Very captivating.... last book had a twist I didn't like but it paid off to keep reading. You won't regret investing the time with this book! Though I wouldn't mind another book to tell what happens in the end with the discrimination towards grubs in Sexton. Which is why I chose 4 stars

I also enjoyed this series because of how intense the first 2 books were and the 3rd book combined both stories and over lapped them.
The book I read was Life As We Knew It . It is the first book in the series of Life As We Knew It. These books are written by Susan Beth Pfeffer. I loved the books in this series. The author does a good job on making it an easy read, by making the print not so small and the book also flows really well. In the first series,Life As We Knew It, it’s about a family that went through a massive change. At the beginning, it talks about a teenage girl who lived in the north, Miranda Evans and her famil
This is one of my favorite book series aside from Harry Potter. It's so real feeling as you're reading it. You can feel every emotion the characters are feeling and the situations they stumble upon really make you want to prepare for the conditions of such things happened in real life. It was such a believable situation. I really loved this book series and would recommend it to any one that is thinking about picking it up.
Held my interest for four books.Interesting concept. Could have done without all the religious overtones in the middle 2 books. Overall would def recommend but don't expect them to change your life
Really liked this series. Pfeffer created a believable catastrophic world and realistic characters that I came to care about. It also brings up some interesting questions of what you'd do in similar circumstances.
Binge read the entire series from October 26 to November 11, 2016You can find reviews on the individual book pages :)
| Reader Fox Blog | When the moon is hit by an asteroid and knocked closer to the Earth, everything in Miranda's life changes. The world she once knew where she would go to school, was preparing for college, and just living normally is shattered to pieces as devastating climate changes wreak havoc upon the planet and its occupants. In Pennsylvania, Miranda won't have to worry about the tsunamis that have destroyed much of the coasts, but when volcanic ash coats the sky and hides away the sun...
The first book was so good, I really like the way Susan wrote the first book. The second book was my least favorite in the series it was a pretty slow moving book but still a really good read. The third book was my favorite, I loved when Miranda found herself liking Alex.The forth book, a lot of people find themselves not liking it because of Jon. He has little to no character development. I found myself liking the book due to liking seeing a different perspective, I may not like Jon’s character...
I think that the Life as we knew it series is very well written and was fun to read. It was about a diary of a girl named Amanda who not only witnessed but survived the events of the moon coming closer to earth's orbit. Then the second one is the diary of a puerto rican boy in New York. He witnesses the same as Amanda and they meet in the third wich is back to Amanda's diary. After that Amanda's little brother has a diary and that's what the last book is about.Overall I loved it, even though it
Couldn’t put it down I read the first 2 books back in high school and buying the collection really closed that chapter of wonder I held for so many years about what happened. Thank you Susan Pfeffer for finishing the series and making it so hard to put down until the very last page.
read this a long time ago and enjoyed it. i always wondered why the romance was really awkward between the protagonists and it’s because the author is old. didn’t really like that they made the younger brother almost sexually assault someone tho :/
This series rocked me to my core. I was entranced immediately and have never finished another series quicker. It got me thinking of how prepared id be if an end of world situation . You really do fall in love with the characters and I was sad with each loss no matter how large or small. Every character was relate-able and the whole concept wasnt so completely out of the realm of possibility. I dont think this is a good series for young adults though. I had nightmares almost every night, like i s...
Easy read, family and friend connections were warm and frightening away the same time. I liked the lifestyles and social aspects of the communities. The story was believable in a way the end of the world could play out.
There was hate on these books that I saw after I starting reading and I’ll never understand them, I love this series so very much. It keeps me on edge, it makes you love and care for characters in a world that is cold and unforgiving, the world they live in takes and takes and yet here I am loving them. I can never put myself in their shoes, but I can appreciate them, love them, and be heartbroken when things don’t work out. I love this series so very much and recommend it to anyone who reads.
So many apocalyptic stories assume that society would immediately break down and our greatest threat would be violence from others. I’ve always been skeptical of this assumption and I like bed that this series focused on first the immediate threat of starvation and later dealing with how society would be restructured. I was pulled in because it felt more real than many stories of the premise.
I read (via audiobook) the whole series, because I started it, but even for YA, there is a little too much Y.
