Convince us to read the book: This book is great, there is not one boring point in the book. It gives us a glance at the future without sunlight, what things would be like and what not. I would read it if I were you.
Compelling Aspect of the Book: Just how the family survived without sunlight and much food at all was amazing. How they tried to keep things as normal as possible in a very imperfect world.
Were you disappointed with the book at all: The only thing that disappointed me was the back of the book. It gave away too much information I think. Don't include information about the Tornado hitting Howell. That part definitely ruined it for me when the tornado actually hit.
Comments: Very good book, just remove the part on the back of the book talking about the Tornado.
Did the cover reflect the contents of the book: Yes it did. Yes the plot was about how the moon was pushed closer to Earth and that is exactly what is on the cover.
