I just finished reading I am Number Four and I absolutely loved it. It kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. It has a ton of action but not too much to the point that it's overwhelming. The author, Pittacus Lore, does an awesome job of keeping the audience entertained. It's a pretty long book so that's really important.
This book would be classified as science fiction. It also had a small bit of romance so that both genders would enjoy the book. However, it never got too sappy and the relationship didn't overshadow the genre. It had a ton of exciting moments which I always look for in a good book. Also, there was a sci-fi element to the story. The main characters are from a different plant and have special legacies (powers), but still blend in with our world. They're being chased by creatures from a different planet called Mogodorians who are much larger than humans and can't blend in like the main characters. Having the aliens in the story made it different than most books and ending up being really cool.
I was surprised I liked this because I usually don't like sci-fi but the author wrote this in a way that made it a page turner. I think people that enjoy science fiction or liked books like Divergent or Twilight would fall in love with this. These three books all have a dystopia/supernatural element and both involve relationships. However, I wouldn't limit this book to anyone because it had so many different parts that would please everyone. I highly recommend this!

I love how you summarized the boook in a nice short fashion, without giving me too much to read. I liked the way you said the book did not get sappy.
