FYABC: Life As We Knew It, Pg 1-166 (Drama In Real Life)

It's the FYA Book Club meeting to discuss how the first half of Susan Beth Pfeffer's Life As We Knew It relates to real life. Um, you know, except for the whole apocalypse thing. THAT'S NOT HAPPENING, RIGHT?

FYABC: Life As We Knew It, Pg 1-166 (Drama In Real Life)

Even though we're discussing our OMG/WTF moments in the semantics post, I still have a LOT of WTFing to get out of my system because CAN THIS REALLY HAPPEN? Does anyone know anyone at NASA we can call?!!! Is Bruce Willis available for potential earth-saving?

Before I start start digging a bomb shelter under my apartment complex, let's put ourselves in Miranda's place (and then quickly get the eff out of there because THE MOSQUITOES ARE COMING TO KILL US).

Compare yrself to Miranda:

•  Would you be more or less afraid?

•  Would you be more or less likely to accept how bad things really are?

•  How would you react to yr (Miranda's) mom?

•  How would you react to Megan and/or Sammi?

•  Would you have a plan for how to deal/survive? What would it be?
