The fourth book in the Life As We Knew It Series left me blah. I loved the first three books in the series, so I was really excited to read The Shade of the Moon. A few years have passed and society has turned on one another. Jon is the main character in this installment, using someone's ticket to get into the enclave. His family is still living in poverty in another town, but in the enclave, Jon plays soccer and has security and food. In fact, he pretty much lives it up and doesn't spend a lot of time thinking of his family. His actions disturbed me, acting like the lord of the house and treating others with disdain. In fact, I wouldn't recommend this book to the young adult crowd, but more of a new adult crowd because of the sexual situations. I felt that this installment fell flat and a few key points were not addressed.
