Stephanie S. (skywriter319) -
Haddix's first novel, and still one of my favorites of hers. Everything is just perfect in this book. The pitch-perfect narrator, on the fence between naïve childhood security and scary adolescence. The suspense that will keep you reading breathlessly until you find out what happens at the end. The world-building that makes you wonder if this couldn't be happening right next door. RUNNING OUT OF TIME is a beautiful blend of the speculative and the probable, and earns its title as one of the best speculative juvenile fiction novels out there today.

This is a fantastic book! Set in the past, the story has twists and turns that I cannot reveal! It is geared towards "tweens" but adults will enjoy it, too! (At least I did!)
