The book that I picked out was called, The Break-Up Bible by Melissa Kantor. It was all about a girl who is in deep depression after her boyfriend of 7 months had broken up with her. She was filled with anger, rage, confusion as well as sadness. She thought she would never be the same without her ex-boyfriend, Max. Jen was the main character of this book. She is very concerned and looks into things way too much. She is always worried about what people think about her and whether they like her or not. This book definitely takes place in current time, New York. I loved this book and thought it was very relatable. It had many problems that teens deal with, and was enjoyable to sit down with. I think any teen girl(maybe guy) would love reading this book.

I am reading the book The Misfits by James Howe. So far, I have read 75 pages. This book is about a group of kids who think they are misfits. Addie refuses to say the pledge because it says "and justice for all" which makes Ms.Wyman mad. She then goes to the principal and ask that she doesn't have to say the pledge. He said as long as she rises, she does not have to say the pledge. Then she goes up to one of the most popular guys in school (DuShawn Carter) and asks him if he would be student council president and if she could be his vice-president. After a little bit of thinking DeShawn decides that he will do it. This book is ok. I don't think that the book is into it's main point yet. Hopefully this book will get into it's main point soon and become more interesting.

i am reading the book the scorpion king. its about a teenage boy who was found out to be the olden king of the realm.
The title of my book is Confessions of a Serial Kisser by Wendelin Van Draanen. I have gotten to page 83. So far Evangeline started reading her moms romantic novels and she thought they were stupid but found them extremely great. After she started she couldnt stop and she was hooked. Now Evangeline is determined to find a "crimson kisser" and she hasnt found him ...yet. Shes gone through many guys and she hasnt had one kiss that sparked. She gave herself a makeover and she figured out her father and mother have been secretly seeing each other. Evangeline is a girl thats very vintage rock. She loves old rock music and she loves dressing in KISS tshirts and dangley chandeleir earrings. The book usually takes place in school or at her house or just around her neigborhood. So far Evangeline has made herself over, had the school hottie fall for her, get a popular girl mad at her and find out that her mom and dad are sneaking around behind her back. This book is very easy considering the fact that once I start reading, I just seem not to be able to put it down. It gets boring at points so I read slowly and dont pay attention but then the book grabs your attention and makes something really great happen! I really like this book so far and I think they should make a series out of it. It would make a great TV show and defienetly interests me.
Bryce G,
The book I started reading satarday and finished thursday was called "The Secret Identity of Devon Delaney" by Lauren Barnholdt. This book was one that kept me so entirly at the edge of my seat, that when i put it down, I was still feeling whatever they where feeling for the rest of the day. Devon Delaney and her little sister, Katie, go on a vacation over the summer while their parents sort out some relationship issues. While there, Devon meets a dirl Named Lexi who is cute, stylish, and completly popular. She tells Lexi that, although Devon is not popular or ever had a boyfriend, that she is an "A-list" girl and is dating the most popular guy in school. Harmless fun right? Until Lexi Shows up in Devon's (or what Lexi thinks everyone calls her, Devi) English class that is. now she has to become popular over night, convince Lexi is dating Jared, and on top of all this, Jared starts liking Lexi! This is where the story begins.

I have been reading Tangerine by Edward Bloor. I have read up to page 52. So far in the story the main character Paul Fisher moved from his old home in Houston, Teaxas to Tangerine, Flordia. Paul and his family find many things wrong with his new home. It rains almost everyday, muck fires (underground fires) burn consently and his school is terrible. Pauls brother is a star football kicker and is very popular at his new high school. This book has been pretty easy but it is very interesting and i like it a lot.

This past week, I have finished the book Breaking Dawn by Stephanie Meyer. Breaking Dawn is the last book from the Twilight series. This book takes place during present day time in Seattle Forks. The main characters are Bella who is a human and Edward, Bella's vampire boyfriend who becomes her husband later on in the book. This book is about Bella and Edward's new life together when she becomes a vampire after being a human for 18 years. It also focuses around Bella and Edward's half vampire and half human baby, named Renesmee. The "bad guys" who are the head vampires called the Voultri mistake Renesmee as a vampire child, (which in the book is illegal to make a baby a vampire) and set out to kill Renesmee and Bella's whole family. The Voultri are very threatening because they destory what ever is in there path and have a lot of experiece in battle. When you become a vampire you live forever and you freeze at the age you become a vampire. YOu never look older or any different from the day you stopped being a human. Bella protected Renesmee until the very end of the book until funally danger goes away and the series/book is done. I have been reading this series since 6th grade and I just have finished the books. I really like th author Stephanie Meyer, she uses a lot of vivid descriptions so you can picture what is going on. Also her books are very adventerous and are full of events that keep you o nthe edge of the seat. Although the books are very long I get hooked into them. Breaking dawn was a very good book and I recommend it to anyone who likes a fast paced book.

I'm reading the book called A Hole in the World by Sid Hite. I have read up to page 78 and plan on reading more tonight.
The main character in my book is Paul Shackleford. Paul is spending the summer on a farm because he lied. Paul learns that he looks a lot like Hennely, a worker of the farm, who died last summer. Dundas, another worker on the farm, says Hennely comes in and out of the devils hole. Paul is very curious about this. Also, Paul and Hennely's dog Einstein, have a strange relationship ever since he nipped Pauls rear. Paul also saw Rebecca, a girl who wanders a lot, in a meadow when he was working.
I think the story is in the present. My general impression of the book is that it's mysterious and it might be an adventure.
I like this book and I can't wait to read more.

A Wrinkle In Time
By: Madeleine L'Engle
I have read 80 pages so far. This book is about a girl named Margaret and a boy named Charles living with there mom while their dad is away at war. Margraret is like any normal smart girl but just never does her hime work and shows how smart she is in school. Charles ids very smart and does everything to help everyone. He spies/reads his mom and sister's mind. Just up the hill from them there is a haunted house with three old ladies living in it named Mrs. Whatsit,Mrs. Who and Mrs. Which. The three ladies have just taken them to a magical place with stautes like never seen before and beautiful mountians. The kids grabed flowers on the way out to help them breath through the air change. I like this book so far and its not easy but its not difficult. This book is very exciting and fun to read.
I am currently reading Becoming Naomi Leon by Pam Munoz Ryan. I just started so I am on page 15. (I tryed The Decleration by Gemma Malley and got on page 30 before abandoning it.) In this book, Naomi has a lot to deal with. She has the, "funniest name in the universe," polyester clothes sewn by Gram, a difficulty speaking up, and a "nobody" status at school. But according to her Gram, most problems can be overcome with positive thinking. The main charachters are; Naomi, Gram, and Owen- her little brother. In the book so far, Naomi has been mocked out at school because her full name is Naomi Soledad Leon Outlaw. Also, she is trying to think of things she is good at, and so far she has come up with, soap carving, worrying, and making lists. So far, my impression of the book is that it will be funny, but heart warming, and serious, but silly all at the same time!

The title of the book I am readig is Ark Angel by Anthony Horowitz, the 6th book in the Alex Rider series. I have finished the book, and i have to say it was really good. It is about Alex Rider, a 14 year old spy for the British secret service, the MI6. Alex was recoving from a bullet wound in a hospital when a group of kidnappers come for a boy named Paul Drevrin. Alex tells them that he is Paul, hopping to save this boys life. The kidnappers take him to an abanden hotel only to find out that he is not Paul, and try to kill him. Alex narroly escapes, and is brought to the hospital again. There, Alex finds out that Paul is the son of a multi-billionare, Nikolei Drevin, who is currently creating the first hotel in space, Ark Angel. Drevrin invites Alex to stay with him for 2weeks, and to watch a rocket go up to send one of the most important pieces of the hotel up. While Alex is there, he finds out that Drevin has gotten so rich by working with Mafias around the world, and is planning to blow up Ark Angel with a bomb planted on the rocket. Th pieces of the space hotel would fall down on Washington, D.C. and blow up the pentagon, where information that could get Drevin thrown in jail. Alex manages to caontact the governmemnt, and Drevin was accidently killed. Although this happened, the rocket containing the bomb is still on its way up to Ark Angel, and no one can stop it. Alex decided he will go up in a second rocket, placing the bomb in the heart of Ark Angel, which would blow up Ark Angel without any pieces hitting Earth. When he does, he leaves in the rocket seconds befor the bomb goes off. The rocket is blown into the pacific ocean near australia, and Alex is finnaly safe. For now. This was a very exiting book, and I would recomend it to anyone.

I am reading the book Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. So far I am nintey pages into this interesting book. This book is about a girl named Melinda. melinda pretty much complains about her life. She is going into ninth grade. This means cliques. Jocks, cherleaders, brainiacs, and guess what, she's not in one. She isn't liked by many of the students in her school. She has issues with many of her teachers and with past friends such as Rachel. Now she is hanging out with a girl named Heather who is perfectionist and Miss.School Spirit, but who else can she hang out with. Half of the other girls in the school don't like her. This book takes place in Merryweather High School during the present day.
I feel that this book is a book that really explains the way people who are not popular or pretty or liked feel in awkward situations. It also shows the way that this changes the point of view on life. It makes you more depressed and sad. It also limits you from making goals for yourself and it lowers your selfesteam. this book is very emotional and made me think more about how others feel. Its truley a great read!

I am currently reading the book Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. I am 80 pages into this intriguing book. The two main characters are Melinda and Heather. It is their first year in high school and Heather's first year in this district. They were both nervous for school because of all the drama that is caused by groups. Groups enclude: The Martha's, cheerleaders, jocks, goths, suffering artists etc. Because of an incident that happened over the summer Heather is Melinda's only "friend". (Melinda won't tell the incident)Melinda is constantly feeling pressured to be perfect and Heather desperately wants her to join a group. But Melinda declines because she knows that everyone is mad at her. Heather doesn't know about the summer incident so she is the only one that takes Melinda seriously. This book takes place at Merryweather High in present day.
I feel that this book is going to talk a lot about peer pressure and bullying. I believe that it will be a good example for bullied girls, to teach them to speak up for themself. Melinda has showed a lot of courage (already). A couragous girl like Melinda has the potential to change the world (if she really wants to).
I am excited to continue reading this book.

I am reading Jumping the Scratch by Sarah Weeks(also the author of SO B. IT). So far I have read to page 93. This book is about a boy named Jamie Reardon. His aunt got into an accident at a factory that causes her memory to develop a skip. She can remember everything before the accident but nothing after it. Jamie had to move from a town called Battle Creek to Wondrous Acres trailer park so he and his mother can take care of his aunt. One of the doctors his aunt saw after her accident said that sometimes a person with amnesia can get her memory back all of a sudden if the right thing triggers it. Triggers are things like a photograph, a song, a smell ect. Jamie and his mom try to find the magic trigger that will help his aunt's memory jump the scratch, like the needle on her favorite Frank Sinatra record. So far I really like this book. It is funny and it's a great book about a family trying to cope with a family member with a mental condition(much like Sarah Weeks' SO B. IT).

I read the book The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau. I have finished the whole book which is 270 pages. In this book, Ember is the only civilization on earth, the rest of the world is darkness. Ember has been aaround for around 240 years. There were storage rooms at the beginning that they thought would have enough supplies to last them forever. But now, Lina Mayfleet and Doon Harrow(the main characters), can tell that the storage rooms will not and the mayor is trying to cover it up. Lina's granmother finds a box that had a special lock and was made of special material. Lina's baby sister Poppy found the contents of the box and chewed it up. Lina believed that paper was important and may save Ember. Doon and Lina go on many great adventures, running from the authorities and searching the pipelines. They de-code the instructions and find that the title it "Instructions for Egress" which means instructions for the exit. Doon and Lina find the exit and they are given candles, matches, and a boats. They have never seen any of those things before so when they figured out how to use it they found many more boats and candles and matches. They had tried to get the whole town to come with them but instead the mayor wanted them arrested becuase they caught him doing a crime. So now it is just Doon, Lina, and Poppy. They take the boat through the quickly flowing river in the pipeworks. They come out and they are in a world that is bright and has grass and it is a totally knew expirience. They explore and they find a cave, In the cave there is a whole in which they can see Ember. The reason Ember was totally black was because it was totally underground. Doon and Lina decide to send a note and drop it down to Ember. It lands in front of Poppy"s babysitter. I thought the book was great. It wasn't too difficult or too easy. It was perfect. It kept me on my toes and i really loved it.

Your so right! Not knowing if someone is your friend or if they have eating problems makes me wonder. i may just have to look for that book to read next. It sort of reminds me of my book Uglies where Tally and Shay are friends but dont really have the same interests. Tally whats to turn pretty and Shay wants to run away. I am not sure if Tally ever Though that her and Shay are really friends but i am sure if she had thought about it she might had changed her mind.

Over the past week, i have been reading a suspensful book, Wolf Brother, by Michelle Paver. I am on chapter four and all ready sitting on the edge of my chair. Torak is one of the main characters. Torak and his father (fa) are living alone in the forest far away from the other native tribes. But when they are attact buy a bear, fa is left with scars and wounds. This was no ordinary bear they had come across, a real bear doesn't leave wounded prey. This bear was an evil demon posessed bear. Fa knows the bear is comming back so he sends torak to the river. When a voice in Toraks head tells him to look back, he heard his dad screaming to him to run for his life. Torak ran for miles and miles when he fell asleep by the river. Torak awoke to see that he was acompanied by a familly of wolves. When he hears more voices in his head, he discovers his special ability to communicate with wolves. This book is very suspensful and once you pick the book up, you'll never put it down.
Victoria - - - Your comments on SPEAK where very interesting. It seems like the book has a setting of school life that many of you and your peers may enounter during these years. I am sure you learned how people may feel during these times. I may even have to read this book myself:) Great job!!! Mom

I have read this book before and i totally agree with you on how the book shows what unpopular and not pretty people feel like when they are caught in a situation they are not comfortable in. It just goes to show you that you need to be nice to everybody no matter waht group they belong to or what they look like. If you don't do that ten you could end up being the person to blame when somebody dies just like in the book Speak.
