This is an intriguing novel series by Kass Morgan. Many delinquents are sent to earth, fighting for their survival and reclaiming their planet after a cataclysm. Before their dangerous journey, they lived in space, as oxygen levels reduced, and so did their chance of surviving. Clarke Griffins, amongst the 100 delinquents, was sent down to Earth, where she looks upon familiar faces - like her ex, Wells Jaha. Also, she meets new friends, like Bellamy Blake, who she inevitably falls in love with. Along with numerous others, they soon discover that they are not alone. In fact, they figure out that Earth is crawling with Earthborns, after significant deaths take place on their expedition. Unnatural killings. Meanwhile, back on the ship (Phoenix), the colonists' desperate attempts at saving humanity and their last hope, on Phoenix, backfires. They were running out of oxygen, and fast! As a last resort, people would have to endure a desperate, unpleasant ordeal at getting to Earth. Where Glass and Luke, two strong lovers, fighting for survival like many others, settle problems and save lives. Of course, only a few would survive! And even when the survivors reunite with the delinquents, they came face-to-face with trouble once more. And the bloodshed had never been so extravagant.                                                                                           'Kill them before they kill us.'
This book is worth every star of the five I rate! It has also been made a film series, which I would recommend just as much as the novels. It's descriptive and very enjoyable! You can experience the perspectives of different struggles and fights for life. There is adventure, action, romance and much more in this Science-fiction series! One specific scene provoked emotional tears for the unwanted loss. And throughout the book, it is very relatable and exciting!!!

When the Chinese soldiers take over pretty much your entire life and even tell you how to live or even take away your parents, what would you do?
Tash goes on an adventure, accompanied by Sam, to find the Dalai Lama, who has been sent away to India. They must travel through the Himalayas and constantly escape the wrath of the Chinese soldiers to save her parents. They must before it's too late. People taken away by those soldiers, are never seen again. The Dalai Lama is their only hope.
I really loved this adventure book. There is always hope, somewhere, and this book can teach you how powerful this can be. Another moral is that, don't give anyone the right to control your life, even if they take away your parents. No one can do that. Always fight against those people telling you how to live. This book is so inspiring and motivating!
This book was published in June 2017, but Jess Butterworth has also published other books like "When all the Mountains Roared", "Swimming against the Storm" and "Where the Wilderness Lives".
However, for "Running on the Roof of the World" I'd rate it 5/5. I love this adventure.

16 year old Starr lives in two worlds:  the poor neighborhood where she lives and the fancy suburban prep school she attends. The balance between these worlds is destroyed when Starr witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood best friend Khalil at the hands of a police officer. Khalil was unarmed. This sparks an outrage and Starr protests and speaks out. Will the police react accordingly, or will things finally change? At first I was a bit hesitant to read this, because other books about racism and hate  value a repetitive message rather than actual story, but i was wrong. The Hate U Give is brilliant and one of the best books I've ever read. The book explores the nature of hate and bigotry and how it can affect someones life, the first few pages are seemingly harmless but then it hits you with a devastating plot point that changed ME (as a person) forever. The book stays relatively unambiguous despite its massive shift in tone about half way through the story. It kept me interested throughout. Furthermore, the characters are TERRIFICALLY written. I felt sorry for them, I wanted them to be safe - and most of all - I wanted them to succeed. The Hate U Give isn't just a book, its an ethereal experience, and i'm constantly being baffled by how much thought has gone into every page. Comes 100% recommended. Well Done Angie Thomas..
