Famous Last Words Vs Glory O'Brien

This was an easy one for me.  Famous Last Words was Ok - I can see some kids who would read it.  But it never grabbed me in any way and I thought there was no real depth to the book.  After I read it I went back to see what it had beat out and was surprised to see it beat our Afterworlds.
I had actually read all the books that were in the Glory O'Brien pool so I was excited to read Glory and see how it compared.  And I was not disappointed!  I love this book, I loved the voice of Glory and as she was telling the future, I could really see that happening.  Do I think you can drink a bat and see the future? No, but I thought the story of the future was really compelling.  As the books have been talked up multiple times in previous posts, I'll keep it short.  Glory O'Brien all the way!
