You'll Like It Here (Everybody Does) Audiobook

" I have read all of Ruth White's previous children's and young adult titles and this one is certainly a change for her. Don't open it expecting historical fiction! Ruth White has written a very interesting dystopian novel for the middle school student complete with aliens, parallel universes, etc. It has the potential for a sequel. "

" I read this book in one day, but mostly because it was easy, not because it was a page-turner. (I'm in need of a good page-turner...anybody?) This was an alternate world dystopian book about a city that appears perfect until you take a closer look at it. A fairly exciting (though overdone) premise that feels rather empty here. The characters were uninteresting, which was my major problem. I found it hard to find pieces of real people in any of them (with the exception of David's inclination to use old-fashioned words and phrases, which was the most interesting thing about any of the characters). "

" Soren almost gave up on this one after the first hour. He said it was one of those books that start out without a lot of info, and with lots of questions about what's going on. He doesn't like that. I know that it's supposed to grab your attention and make you want to find out what's going on, but he would rather start out knowing what's going on. Hummm, we must be related. He did keep going and ended up really enjoying it. "

" even seen the Hunger Games, i have been a bit obsessed with distopian fiction. This book is for a slightly younger crowd that HG. However it was really great. It tells the story of a family called the Blues who are Aliens hiding on earth. The are found out by the people who live in there town and they have to escape they escape to a town on an alternate Earth Called Fashion City. Fashion City is a supposed to be a Utopia but it is anything but. Then citizens are forced to wear drab boring clothes and Uniqueness is greatly discourageed and you can be punished for it. This book had a lot of elements for other Distopioan books , Pills that Control you emotions and the kill of the elderly and disabled.however White really spins a good story that made me want to keep reading. "

" Very different from White's other books. Would make a great book discussion title for grades 5-7. "

" Not at all what I was expecting from the synopsis. Very enjoyable, though. The message may have been a bit heavy-handed, and some things wrapped up a bit too easily, but I didn't mind. It is still a good dystopian story for the younger teen & tween crowd. "

" A good sci-if read. A bit predictable. Kids will like it. "

" Oppressive future government, "The Giver"-like consequences for over-65 people, and fun, progressive aliens! "

" this was an awesome book! i really liked it. "

" This book shows children how the world could soon be if we turn into mindless drones and let the rich and powerful take over. "

" As a major Ruth White fan, I wasn't disappointed. This is totally different than her previous books and a totally different take on aliens. I'm looking everywhere for them now! "
