I read this book for novel study at school and found it was a lot more interesting than I thought! If I was to make the decision on my own I think I would have passed it up. Very interesting and exciting. I really enjoyed the twist!! This…

We had to read this book for school and if I hadn't been shown this amazing book I would have missed out on so much. The plot is surprisingly relatable and emotional. I highly recommend!

I have to say that I didn't enjoy this book very much. But, I ❤️ Haddix and her writing style, so I have faith that the rest of the series will be great 👍🏻

Once I started it I couldn't put it down. If you enjoyed this book and are eager for more you would like the rest of the series.

Good, fast-paced start to the series. Raises important issues of the value of life and personal identity, as well as social responsibility and government overreach.

I adored this series when I first read it in early middle school; I'd recommend it for kids who have trouble getting into books, as these are very fast paced and gripping.

The plot and pace of book itself was one well, but the world within the book seemed very briefly described. More about the world and the events that led up to this dystopian world are described as you read through the series, but leaves…

This was a good start to the series. It introduces us to Luke, who is the third son in a family and, therefore, illegal. It seems that, due to food shortages, the government passed laws that limit each family to only two children. Luke has…

Not my cup of tea. I was expecting a lot more from this book, based off of all of the amazing reviews I'd read. The ending is very disappointing; don't read this book if you want a brief ending and to know what happens without having to…

Very poor cast of characters. Like most YA books, the writing was junk and had very little story. Keep "Among the Hidden" hidden in the library and do not read it!
