The Girl Who Owned a City by O.T. Nelson Science Fiction NO Stars This was one of the worst books I’ve ever read. Why? 1.) It was not even close to realistic. First of all, adults are all catching a disease that is killing everyone over 12 years old. So the kids are left to have to survive on their own. Doesn’t sound that bad, right?

I would say this is definitely a book for kids 15 and up because most children below 15 would not understand some parts. If you like adventure/fantasy books, this … Read more
