this is one of my favorite books!
Lila Cooper and her father get into a huge argument where harsh things are said--things that cant be taken back, not easily at least. Lila boards a flight leaving behind Japan, her father--and her chance to apologize; heading back to the U.S. But something goes wrong--terribly wrong. soon Lila finds herself the sole survivor of a terrible mid-air accident--trapped in a waterproof cargo pod at the bottom of the ocean--and no one knows where she is...or even that she's there. will soeone--anyone--find her before her oxygen runs out?
as i said before, this is one of my favorite books. its one of the few i can read and re-read without getting tired of it! i would reccomend this book for anyone!--and i do mean ANYONE. this book has a little of something for anyone! and even though it is book four in the series, you dont need to read the other books to get whats happening!

The Things A Brother Knows
Boaz Katznelson returns home from 'the War on Terror' without a scratch; or so everyone's told. Levi, is Boaz's younger brother (the story is told from his perspective). Levi knows that his brother didn't make it back entirely in one piece--he knows that his brother lost something across those seas...something that made him who he was..they say you go in a boy, and come out a man, but to Levi, it seems he went in a man, and came out a ghost. Levi decides he's going to try and figure out his brother...to help him...to pull him back to reality.
when i first won this book here as an ARC, i didn't think much of it. I just thought this would be another war-centered story with the same cliche'd plotline we've all seen so much of over the years. But this was different. It was so much better than i had expected! its actually one of the best reality-based fiction stories i've read!
I would recommend this book for STRONG and MATURE audiences ONLY...this is the real world inside that book...parts of the world that haunt those too young to guard themselves from it. some of these stories would make certain people vomit. there is foul language in the book, there is some drug reference, s*x is mentioned, and few other things are mentioned. I know a few who would like to read this book, but i would tell them not to because of some of the content. beware of some of the content, but other than that, i think it is a good book
