The Nine Lives of Chloe King
I just finished reading this really long book called The Nine Lives of Chloe King. It was about a girl named Chloe King who, on the day before her sixteenth birthday, skips school to go to a tower in San Francisco where she lives with her two best friends, Amy and Paul, called Coit Tower. Chloe then falls out of one of the windows of the 700ft. building, and dies. But just moments later, she comes back to life. After she gets up and tells her friends that somehow she is fine and unhurt, just a little dizzy, she goes home. the next night, she goes out to a club called the Bank, and meets a boy called Xavier. They leave the club together, and she kisses him. Then the book goes on to talk about how she finds out from this guy she likes at her school, Alyec, that she is Mai, an ancient race of people that are half cat, half human. They are able to run faster and longer than humans, they can jump really high, defend themselfes well, and they have night vision. But there's one catch. Mai and human's can't mate. Ever. If they do, then the human dies.

This is a great book!! I love this book, except for the part where she falls in love with the human. I like Alek personally, not Brian.
ReplyDeleteThis book sound interesting. Sometimes, however, I found these kinds of books to be hard to believe, but it doesn't sound that way . Maybe I will try reading it. It seems like a cool concept; dying and coming back to life. It also seems like it has some romance, which is always really fun to read.
