Jake Carreon’s Reviews > I Am Number Four > Status Update

I Am Number Four would be greatly changed if it wasn't the perspective of John Smith. For instance, if it was the perspective of Number Six, than the views would be different. She is smart, brave, hero like, tough and experienced. However, John Smith is not as experienced or brave Number Six. John thinks of her as a god but she thinks of him like a toddler, always having to get out of trouble.

In I Am Number Four, there are good and bad parts. For example, a good part was when John Smith is fighting the Mogadorians at the school. I like action and this was fun and great part of the book. My least favorite part of the book was the exposition. It was very boring. I know it is necessary for a book but I think that Pattacus Lore could have done a better job.

When I was reading I Am Number Four, they said that when the Mogadorians killed one of the six that a ring would be burned into the ankles of the remaining five. So when John Smith had three rings on his ankle than he knew that he was next. They had to survive until they became older and powerful enough to return to Lorien and take back their home and receive new identities.

I would not want to be a character in I Am Number Four because the characters are hunting or being hunted. John Smith was just an ordinary boy who's life changed realizing that was being hunted. l don't know about you but I don't want to be a character who is going to be killed. Also, I am fine with the life I have right now because I am a soon to be dead Lorien.

The Mogadorians sent out assassins to kill all nine Loriens. John Smith is Number Four.

I just finished my young adult book, The Maze Runner and now I'm on my new book. I have just started so I finished the exposition and know the conflict and starting the rising actions. The main character is an alien(Lorien) named John Smith and he has a guardian(father) named Henri which is supposed to protect him at all costs. The Lorain planet was taken over by Mogadorians so they sent out 9 Loriens to Earth.
