This has been on my wishlist for awhile. Spotted it on bookmooch and mooched that sucker up!

Number Four knows he's next on The Mogadorians hit list, when he gets three scars on his leg, showing that the other Lorien's have died. He must always stay hidden, he moves from small town to small town. Blending in, not standing out, not getting involved with anyone.

But this all changes when he moves to Ohio and starts to fall in love with Sarah. Suddenly he doesn't want to run anymore. His powers also start to develop and he decides to take a stand.

I really enjoyed this one for most of it. I lost intrest slightly during the final battle scene, I hate battles but then it picked back up for the ending. The characters were all pretty good and the love between Sarah and John was believable. I will be putting the next one on my wishlist. And I hope the film is still on Netflix as I really want to see it!

Ooh, this sounds interesting!
Received as part of a lovely gift 'Four Calling Birds' for the 12 Days of Christmas Exchange,
accompanied by four beautiful blackbird themed gifts - two coasters, a bookmark and a fridge magnet in a very attractive design, and accompanied by a very nice seagull card. What a great present, thank you!

Nine alien children with super powers come to Earth with their carers when their planet, Lorien, is destroyed. They are pursued by the evil alien race who destroyed Lorien. Since due to a charm they can only be killed in order, John who is number four is next on the list. He's just settled into a new school, where because he has to hide his powers he pretends to have asthma, which apparently means you're can't be cool (what?), so he gets bullied, but falls in love, meaning he doesn't want to move on again even though the enemy are drawing close. Unambitious and not very original sci fi - I think this must be aimed at teens.

Taken from the No. 1 to 10 bookring.

Journal Entry 8 by Tanamo at Hinckley, Leicestershire United Kingdom on Saturday, December 8, 2018
A book aimed at young adults with a sci-fi slant as the main character is an alien. It was an easy read but I still don't get the bit about the dog. Was he really just a dog that the main character met outside the school or was he another creature from another planet. It was never really made clear, probably so you continue reading the series as I gather there are other books.
