Among The Hidden By Margaret Haddix?

Among The Hidden is a science fiction book about a boy who was not supposed to be born. This is in the future and the population police have to make sure know family has born then two kids because of a famine. The kid, Luke, is his family's third child. He wants to go outside and be normal but he has to hide or else he will be slaughtered. When he meets a girl who is also a third child, Jen, he finds out that she has a ticket to freedom. Will he take it?

Just Ella By Margaret Peterson Haddix?

I really didn't like this book. It is the sequel to the fairy tale Cinderella. It's about Ella living in the castle and really not liking living there. She reveals that she doesn't have a fairy god mother like people say. She finds the prince dull and boring. Then she falls in love with someone else. The part I don't get is when one of the evil stepsisters marry the prince. In my opinion it's a very bad book.
