This review of all three Amy and Laura books also appears on my blog, Read-at-Home Mom.
When Marilyn Sachs passed away at the beginning of January, I was reminded immediately of how much I enjoyed her 1968 children's novel, Veronica Ganz. Back in 2015, when I reviewed the book, I wrote that it...

I'm going to be honest with you: at least 60% of the reason I read this is because of its author's cracktastic pen name. In combination with the paperback's cover, the book summary, and a co-writing credit with established YA author Paul Zindel, it absolutely sounds like a 19-year-old human disaster...

This book wasn't terrible, but definitely wasn't the best book I have ever read. I found myself wanting to know what would come next in this book. The book did have a good meaning and message directed towards mothers and daughters. However, this book seemed oddly specific and had too many details which...

As I've stated in previous reviews, after a while all of these Aliens novels seem to run together. Space station, military, evil scientist, horrible experiments, etc. That being said, they are still enjoyable. This one did throw me a curveball as I was not expecting the ending, but there was also some...
