so i read the book and can't wait for the next one to come out. it isn't that good, but it makes you curious and makes you want to know more. i have it on the computer if anyone wants it.

I read the book a while back. I was quite dissappointed by it, it could have been so much better.

I wrote a review on it, which you can read here. It's quite long...xD

yes it could have been longer and more action would have been nice, too. it's like the book starts and then it ends. too short. but it's a good book to read if you want to relax. i hope the movie will be good.

I don't think making it longer would have helped- it was a decent size as it was.

The ending was just a bit too sudden, methinks.

i don't want to transform this topic in a movie topic. i will post the trailer for the movie so that people may become interested in the book. it's not a very good book, but it's worth reading when you are bored. so here's the trailer.

I liked the plot of the book, and Henri had definitely been my favorite character, but Sarah really seemed like a Mary-Sue to me, and Number Four is pretty overpowered, but I get that sometimes, the main character does need to be powerful.

I really don't care what most people say, but i liked the book. Sure, Sarah is a complete Sue, but I can just ignore her.

I liked the book too. It could have been better, like in third person - just a personal preference - but it was still awesome :D

*grumbles* I hate it when they change the point of view of a book. I always like the original better.

The second book (Power of Six) is awesome. It's added another POV to John's, and I almost like this new POV more than his.

Here's my spoiler free review.

how were you able to read it before it was released? i don't like the other point of view very much. it's a little boring.
