I am Number 4 is about a young, teenage boy who has to move into a new high school. A little cliche, don't you think? A frightening shift tells us that he's actually an extraterrestrial alien sent to Earth to avoid other extraterrestrials…

Somewhat interesting and original plot line. Unfortunately, the novel seemed very predictable; and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone of high school age or older.

I am Number 4 is a easy to read teen novel that is very enjoyable. It has a simple plot where a super powered teen rises to the occasion of protecting humanity from some evil organization, in this case an evil alien race. It follows the…
This book is too good. I would like it if there weren't as many people who liked it because I have to wait like, 2 months each time. Especially because it has HUGE cliffhangers and they're kinda annoying

This was a fun YA romp with friendships, plenty of action, aliens, and superpowers. I remember seeing the movie when it first came out, and I don't recall it being very good, so I was a little hesitant to dive into this one. Thankfully, it…

This is your friendly Youth Librarian, and wow, I am so late to the party on this one.
Impressions: It's tense, the universe-building is cool, and the plot sets up the series well. I can understand why it would be ear-marked for a movie,…
I love this book! There was a fighting scene that I didn't get a whole lot about, but otherwise, its a must put on my list read! Also, Pittcus lore's name is James Frey.

This was a great book, better than the movie. I can just find it annoying, being an author like this, and having movie makers just jumble up the whole story line like they did in the movie. I have come to like the books a lot better than…

If you watched the movie... shame on you! Don't even compare the book, please.
The book, like most cases, is substantially better in many ways!
More details, and of course a bit different story line towards the end (copywriter laws).…

I really enjoyed this book but it wasn't amazing and I still haven't got around to reading to next one yet. What I didn't like so much about this book was the amount of romance.
Gods! He's 15! But other than that it was a really good…

A couple years ago, my friend pretty much forced me to read this book (I'm usually not into sci-fi)..... and holy cow, I do not regret reading it at all. I, a picky reader, was engrossed in this series. My love for the Lorien Legacies is…

I Am Number Four is a well written, thoroughly thought out masterpiece. The character John Smith is your stereotypical hero, selfless, modest, determined and is always there to help. But it's the cleverly constructed network of legacies…
