Summary: Among the Betrayed
Comment: Hey! ... this book by Margret Peterson Haddix is a story about love, hatred, betrayal, and surivivsl. the main character is Nina Idi, or is it? Nina ( thats is her fake ID name) is an illegal third child. her real name is Elodie. The setting takes place at a prison. It adds to the mood because everyone acts depressed. It is not a normal jail it is a jail for illegal third children. Unfortunatly Nina was found at Harlow school for girls. I love this book! I would recommed this to anyone! That's why I gave it 5 stars

Summary: Not as good as the first but still good
Comment: In Among the Betrayed by Margaret Haddix, Nina is accused of telling the government that certain people were shadow children when they really weren't.
When Nina meets her interegator, he gives her a choice, she can die or make the other three prisoners in her cell tell her where they are from and where did they get those fake ID's. Nina doesn't know what to do. Should she squel or die?
But when (conveniently)a guard is poisin and drops his keys to Nina's cell next to Nina's feet, Nina takes the keys. When Nina comes back, Matthias, Percy, and Alia (the other three prisoners) are huddled next each other sleeping. Nina wakes them up and tells them her plan. They would run as far away as they can from the prison, and when safe they would visit Luke (main character from first book).
During their journey, Nina learns of her friends "streetsmarts". When they reach Luke she learns that he didn't trust her and niether did the whole school (which was full of shadow childs). Later on Nina meets with the interogator again and he tells Nina the he is Mr. Talbot father of Jen Talbot who tried to make a huge protest so the government would take away the two kids limit law. She also learns that the whole prison/runaway was all a big test to see if Nina could really be trusted.
I recommend this book for people who like realistic fiction. I also recommend this book for people 7-14.

Summary: Suspense
Comment: This book was the best but I suggest not reading it if you have not read the other two books Among the Hidden and Among the Imposters (read Among the hidden first then read Amnong the Imposters). In this book third children are illegal because food is getting scarce.Some parents have third child and one girl by the name Elodie has to get a fake I.D. just to go on the streets and every fake I.D. comes with a fake name so the Population Police(the people who will kill you if they find out your a third child)won't find. So Elodie gets a fake I.D. and her new name is Nina Idi.Well any the story begins with Nina in a cell because the Population Police find her. First she thinks it was all a dream but sadly it wasn't, a man walks in her cell giving her a deal. To betray kids. She figures out that the kids have some secrets and that the whole thing was a set up. I loved this book because it makes so many twists and turns. Find out how Nina excapes with the kids she rescuse.
