She is AMAZING. Here are some of her books that I have read and love:
Running Out Of Time
About a girl who lives in the 1800's when a deadly disease starts spreading into her village. She has to help find a doctor and discovers a secret kept from most of the community
I love this book because of the suspense and the way Haddix describes the world through a fresh pair of eyes
Escape From Memory

When a stranger comes over to her house and calls herself Aunt Memory, she lures Kira out of the safety of her town and Kira must learn-the hard way- about her past when she is in grave life-or-death danger.
I love this book because of it's could be real feeling. It's also kinda creepy and that adds to the suspence.
House On The Gulf
16 year old Bran has always been a "perfect" kid. He always helps out around the house. Works to help his mom. Comes home before curfew, But when Bran, his little sister Britt, and their mom move to florida so their mom can get a scholarship for university, Britt knows that there's something weird going on with Bran....and the house that the'yre staying at.
I like this book because it is full of surprises. Besides the fact that it's written really well.
Turnabout
There's a new test around and the'yre testing it on people in Hospises.
Promises to reverse the aging process, and keep you forever young. But what if you're in the test, and something goes wrong?
I love this book becauseit's written in a back and forth beetween two old ladies and two teens who may eventually die because they are becoming younger and younger.
The Shadow Children Series:
Among the Hidden
Among the Imposters
Among the Betrayed
Among the Barons
Among the Brave
Among the Enemy
In a country whith population police, you are only allowed to have two children, but there are many who are in hiding from the population police -the Shadow Children. THis series is about a few children who try to stand up for their rights to live, and must face the challenge of standing together to rebel-instead of hiding up in their rooms with the blinds drawn.
I Love the Shadow children series because it could be real. these stories are coming of age books and the fact that the government isn't always good.
