Life As We Knew It
Life As We Knew It
Susan Beth Pfeffer

In Life As We Knew It, Miranda has much more to deal with than the usual teenage fare. A meteorite has collided with the moon pushing its orbit closer to the earth and creating all sorts of catastrophic weather events including earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanoes. Miranda records events in her diary as things get more and more dire. Utilities stop working, the super markets run out of food and they lose their connection with the world outside their Pennsylvania town. Soon the schools shut down and disease spreads. Those who are left must decide whether to head south or try to make it through the coldest winter they have ever experienced without heat, running water and only a small canned good food supply. If you like a good apocalyptic scare, then this book is for you.
