Text to Self- The Girl Who Owned a City

By Anonymous -
       I am reading The Girl Who Owned a City by O.T. Nelson is a story about a girl named Lisa who is trying to survive through a killing virus that killed all adults. All children under the age of 12 weren't affected by the virus. Lisa and her brother Todd are one of those children that weren't affected. Lisa is running a city where there is lots of food and protection in exchange for trust and work. Later in the story, Lisa's city called Glenbard is being taken over my Tom Logan. Lisa is fighting and making a plan on getting back her city to the happy and safe place it was before.
   
      This reminds me of a similar situation that happened to me. It happened to me when somebody on my team to my spot as a flyer for competition. She took my spot because I wasn't paying attention and she got the skill before I did. I made a plan to completely shut her down and get my spot back. I eventually got the skill she had and then I got a skill she had been trying to get, but never got. Because of this, I got my spot back as a flyer!

     I love the way everything ties together in the story. Every part is so detailed and it ties together into the story which is what makes the story so interesting and keeps you at the edge of your seat. This story teaches you that you should never be afraid and that you need to pick yourself up and bounce back if you fall. I was definitely surprised that children under 12 years old could do such incredible things, even though this story is fictional.
