The book Claim to Fame by Margaret Peterson Haddix was an okay book. This book was a little boring because I like books with some action, like tragedy deaths, in it. This book didn't have any of that. With those things I like in a book, plus a lot of mystery, I have to give this book a 2 star rating.This book was kind of hard to follow along because the main character, Lindsey, could hear voices of other people talking about her. At first I didn't know she could hear the voices, so I got confused when there was other dialogue when she wasn't even talking to people, or when people weren't around her. This book is about a young girl, Lindsey, and she can hear different voices because of a family genetic. She never knew what it was until... I don't want to give a too big of a spoiler away. This book was amazing. I read it without stopping. I walked around the house, ate, did the laundry, all while holding this book in front of me. The characters are so incredible, and the plot was constantly surprising me.This is really the first book in a LONG time that I can actually describe as, well, inspiring. It starts out your typical everyday sci-fi type book, a girl with unusual powers that turn into torture. But then as Lindsay begins to discover others with the same abilities...well, it got inspiring, almost spiritual, without being preachy at all. Loved it.I'm 14, and I highly recommend this book.
