Life as we Knew It

De: Susan Beth Pfeffer

Narrado por: Emily Bauer

When Miranda first hears the warnings that a meteor is headed on a collision path with the moon, they just sound like an excuse for extra homework assignments. But her disbelief turns to fear in a split second as the entire world witnesses a lunar impact that knocks the moon closer in orbit, catastrophically altering the earth’s climate.

Everything else in Miranda’s life fades away as supermarkets run out of food, gas goes up to more than ten dollars a gallon, and school is closed indefinitely. But what Miranda and her family don’t realize is that the worst is yet to come.

Told in Miranda’s diary entries, this is a heart-pounding account of her struggle to hold on to the most important resource of all–hope–in an increasingly desperate and unfamiliar time.©2006 Susan Beth Pfeffer; (P)2006 Random House Inc.

Good book but teen narrator got annoying

This is the story of an terrible event that affects the earth told from the viewpoint of a self involved teen. As an adult it was hard to relate to the whiny main character, but the book was very well narrated and was paced well and an interesting story.

Engaging YA Post-Apocalyptic Story

The main characters POV narration seemed authentic, relatable and compelling enough.

The science of an asteroid knocking the moon out of orbit was sketchy but not a problem.

We enjoyed listening to the book and looking forward to the next books. Tho with expectations of sequel quality.

Could not put this down!

Started this last night and had to finish it today. Can't wait to start the next one!
